It\u2019s also a lot cheaper, coming in at $169, rather than the $399 of the Sonos Move (as good as that speaker may be).<\/p>\n<p>Here are the other details we learn from the report:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It\u2019s tiny, at just 6.5 x 2.5 x2.5 inches.<\/li>\n<li>It weighs \u201caround a pound.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>USB-C charging and wireless charging (with a$49 dock) are on board.<\/li>\n<li>It should last about 10 hours on a charge.<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s waterproof.<\/li>\n<li>The Roam can connect via Wi-Fi as well as Bluetooth, and supports stereo pairing in Wi-Fi mode.<\/li>\n<li>It supports AirPlay 2.<\/li>\n<li>There are microphones on board for either Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And that\u2019s about it. The Wi-Fi connectivity should help differentiate it from most other Bluetooth speakers, as it can readily integrate with existing Sonos-equipped households. Sonos also has a reputation for sound quality that I hope it maintains with the Roam.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"post-image post-mediaBleed aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1341559 lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"1950\" height=\"1179\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1950px) 100vw, 1950px\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_e8e82a2.png\" data-lazy=\"true\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_e8e82a2.png 1950w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_e8e82a2-280x169.png 280w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_e8e82a2-447x270.png 447w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_e8e82a2-223x135.png 223w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_e8e82a2-796x481.png 796w, https:\/\/cdn0.tnwcdn.com\/wp-content\/blogs.dir\/1\/files\/2021\/03\/Snag_e8e82a2-1592x963.png 1592w\"\/><figcaption>Credit: <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/2021\/3\/4\/22313451\/sonos-roam-leak-features-specs-price-release-date\">The Verge<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>What I\u2019m curious to see is whether Sonos leverages the Wi-Fi connectivity for other home <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>lications. Although this speaker is positively tiny compared to Sonos\u2019 other offerings, it could theoretically be used as a cheap surround or Atmos speaker in a small home theater setup.<\/p>\n<p>To be clear, the report doesn\u2019t claim this functionality, but it would be an interesting edge for Sonos that could help pull potential buyers into its ecosystem. Whether that\u2019s actually feasible will depend on how loud and good the speaker actually ends up being \u2014 I guess we\u2019ll see soon enough.<\/p>\n<p><i>Did you know we have a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>letter all about consumer tech?
