Sonos Move 2 review: same body, better soul

The Sonos Move 2 improves on the first-gen Move speaker with better battery life, better sound, and more features. But Google fans may want to look elsewhere.

Balanced and immersive sound 24-hour battery Analog line-in (with optional adapter) Charges your devices

Awkward to carry No Google Assistant option

“Whether indoors or outside, the Sonos Move 2 is a highly versatile smart speaker.”

Sonos Move 2 review: a slam-dunk sequel

When you're considering the sequel of any tech product, it's easy to jump to the conclusion that it's “everything the original should've been.” And as I've been testing out the new $449 Sonos Move 2 speaker over the last several days, it's been...

Improved stereo sound ; Much longer battery life ; Supports line-in playback

No more Google Assistant ; Can’t be used as a speakerphone ; Hefty for a portable speaker

As a complete package, the Move 2 is a slam-dunk sequel that will only get better when you factor in Sonos’ long-term software support. The company needed to draw on lessons learned from other products to get here, but anyone who loved the first Move...

Sonos Move 2

It doesn't look much different from the original groundbreaking speaker, but there's virtually nothing here that hasn't been improved.

Excellent audio performance—in stereo! ; Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity—simultaneously! ; Very wide sound stage ; Incredibly long battery life

Still no support for hi-res Bluetooth codecs ; Still best described as luggable ; $50 more expensive than the already pricey original

Sonos didn’t need to go back to the drawing board to design a better portable speaker, but I’m glad they did. The Move 2 sounds better than the original, produces a wider sound stage than the original, and offers twice as much battery life as the...

Sonos Move 2 Review

When it comes to portable speakers, one that might not always come first to mind is Sonos and its Move speakers, which is now in its second-gen model with the Sonos Move 2. Design & Hardware The outside of the Sonos Move 2 will look very familiar to...

Great sound with stereo audio support ; Easy-to-use touch controls ; Alexa and Sonos Voice Control can be used simultaneously ; Solid battery life

No Google Assistant support ; The speaker is on the heavy side for portability ; Some Sonos app bugginess

Overall, the Sonos Move 2 is a great speaker that’s better than the original model in a number of ways including stereo sound and longer battery life.

Sonos Move 2 review: Same looks, better sound

The Sonos Move 2 is like a sequel that continues the general story and focus but expands on it in ways that make a lot of sense. Looks about the same, but doesn't sound like it.

Sonos Move 2 review: The carry speaker with great sound everywhere

The Sonos Move 2 is a versatile, battery-powered smart speaker that tunes your music to sound great both in and out of the home. While it's still a bit too bulky to carry beyond the backyard, a number

-ing it much, the Sonos Era 300 costs the same but is perhaps the better choice for immersive listening. With Dolby Atmos and impressive spatial audio, the Era 300 is a smart home speaker designed for audiophiles. Still, if you’re compelled by the...

Sonos Move 2 Review

Ideal for moving around your home and into the garden, the Sonos Move 2 is a powerful, portable speaker with all-day battery life.

Excellent battery life ; High-quality audio ; Works as a regular Sonos speaker at home

Expensive ; Line-in adaptor is optional extra

With its redesigned audio system, the Sonos Move 2 adds two tweeters into the mix to deliver stereo, as well as a wider, less positional soundscape than its predecessor. There’s no escaping that this is an expensive speaker, but there’s nothing else...
