Powerful audio for its compact size, IP67 dust and water-resistant, Seamless connectivity
No voice assistant support in India, Lacklustre battery life, Exorbitantly priced
Priced at Rs 19,999, the Sonos Roam is a luxury portable speaker that impresses in more ways than one. Be it the seamless Wi-Fi + Bluetooth connectivity, powerful audio, or IP67 rugged build, the Sonos Roam justifies its price point, especially for those...

No Alexa or Google Assistant support in India yet, Low on bass, Average battery life
Sonos is a new luxury audio brand in India, but it is a reputed one in the US. So catching up with the premium customers here will take some time - especially amid the competition from brands like Sony, but Roam comes off as a step taken in the right dire...

Pros, Solid audio performance at moderate volumes, Works with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant voice control, Streams via AirPlay 2, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi, Waterproof design
Cons, Mono output, Digital signal processing can overwhelm the audio at high volumes, Not as loud as similarly priced speakers
Inevitably, switching from a wi-fi connection to Bluetooth does make a difference to the sound quality – although it's impressive that the Roam is able to handle the switch automatically when I venture outdoors with my tablet. That bass intro on Bad Guy i...
Bluetooth limited to streaming, Battery life behind rivals
Overall, Sonos has done a great job with the Roam by offering something far more compact and cheaper than the Move.Even as a straight Bluetooth speaker it fares well against rivals on design, price and sound quality. However, you're going to need to use t...

Great design, Excellent connectivity options, Light, Cool features

great sound, Trueplay, easy to use, wifi and Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, water and shock resistant, optional Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa, small and light, USBC and Qi wireless charging, battery can be replaced through service, very long so
battery life only about 10 hours, takes a long time to charge, cannot be grouped as part of a Sonos home cinema system, not cheap
The Roam is easily one of the best portable speakers and, unlike the majority of the competition, it works even better indoors.It isn't the biggest or the loudest and doesn't have thumping bass or super-long battery life. But the Roam produces quality, we...
