Sonos Move - Black MOVE1AU1BLK review
In a move that simultaneously felt like a very natural evolution of their product line as well as (finally?) answering every unrequited request ever made of the company, Sonos today announced Sonos Move , a portable, battery-powered, water resistant, weatherproof, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi speaker.
Hands on with Sonos Move, Sonos' first Bluetooth speaker
Having dominated the multi-room market for years, it was an oddity that Sonos hadn't used its expertise to release a Bluetooth speaker. That's now been addressed with the Move, the first Bluetooth speaker from the Californian company that "goes wherever you go"; a speaker that sounds great outdoors...
Sonos Move - Black MOVE1AU1BLK review
At $399, the Sonos Move is definitely expensive for either a Bluetooth speaker or a wireless home smart speaker. But when you consider that it’s both, and that it delivers all-day battery life on a single charge, intelligent adaptive sound to ensure it sounds best wherever you’re using it and the...

- That Sonos sound
- Too expensive
- not so easy to move
Sonos Move
The Sonos Move is rugged, portable, sounds great, and works with an app that allows you to tweak the sound signature to a degree. Throw in voice control with Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant, and there's not much to complain about.- Powerful audio with rich bass depth and bright highs
- Portable, dust- and water-resistant build
- Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control
- Expensive
- Heavy
- Sculpted, mono sound signature not for everyone

Sonos Move - Black MOVE1AU1BLK review
If you can live with its price and size, the Sonos Move is an excellent portable wireless speaker that expands the play area of your Sonos system.- A solid portable speaker for an existing Sonos system

- Up to 10 hours of playback
- Autotuning system calibrates to any environment
- The battery is replaceable.
- Somewhat expensive, the Move is big and hefty for a portable speaker
- Battery life can be adversely impacted by how you use it.
Sonos Move - Black MOVE1AU1BLK review
If you’re looking for a versatile speaker that works just about anywhere you use it, the Sonos Move is an excellent (but expensive) option. It works as a full-fledged Sonos speaker at home and can be used in a wide variety of outdoor environments, as well.- All the features you’d expect from a Sonos speaker
- Good sound quality
- Solid battery life
- First Sonos with Bluetooth
- Weather-resistant and rugged design
- Expensive
- Sound quality isn’t as good as other speakers in this price range
Sonos Move review: Hefty portable speaker brings big Sonos sound to the outdoors
If you can live with its price and size, the Sonos Move is an excellent portable wireless speaker that expands the play area of your Sonos system. When you first encounter the Move, Sonos' first portable speaker, be prepared for something big. At 9.44 inches tall and 6.6 pounds (3 kg), it's significantly larger than the Sonos One and also costs about twice as much at $400 (£399, AU$649). When most people think portable, they think small, but the Move has some serious heft. At first blush it looks almost too nice to be an outdoor speaker.- A solid portable speaker for an existing Sonos system
- Sturdy, water-resistant, dustproof and voice-enabled (on a Wi-Fi network) with Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa
- Up to 10 hours of playback
- Autotuning system calibrates to any environment
- The battery is replaceable.
- Somewhat expensive, the Move is big and hefty for a portable speaker
- Battery life can be adversely impacted by how you use it.
