Sonos Move 2 with stereo sound and 24 hours of battery life

Sonos has introduced the Sonos Move 2, the successor to the first Sonos Move, which received no less than 4.5 stars from me. According to Sonos, the Move 2 is packed with sound innovation, sustainable design improvements and is Sonos’ most durable portable product to date. It’s also the first standalone speaker to bring stereo sound outside for outdoor dinner parties, campfires under the stars, garden parties and evenings by the water. Move 2 has been redesigned inside and out, equipped with completely new hardware and software and the next-gen acoustic design produces wide stereo sound and deep bass everywhere.

Sonos Move 2 features
• Supercharged stereo sound: Move 2’s acoustic architecture has been completely redesigned and includes dual tweeters that produce wide stereo sound and crystal-clear vocals, even outdoors.
• Personalize your system: For more flexibility, Bluetooth and WiFi can be used simultaneously. Stream via Bluetooth to two WiFi-connected Move 2 speakers to expand the sound field. You can also easily group Move 2 with the rest of the Sonos system via WiFi.
• More power: Move 2 offers a battery life of up to 24 hours. That’s more than twice the playback time of the original Move, and the USB-C port lets you charge your phone (or other electronics) on the go.
• Designed for every adventure: in standby mode, Move 2 uses 40% less energy. Plus, it’s made with recycled plastic and has a removable and replaceable battery for a longer lifespan. All in responsibly designed recyclable packaging made from sustainable materials and 0% virgin plastic.
• Versatile sound that you can move: Thanks to its durable design and IP56 rating, Move 2 can withstand drops, water splashes, rain, dirt and sunlight. With automatic Trueplay tuning, Move 2 continuously optimizes the sound for its environment.
• Improved controls and thoughtful design: Move 2 is available in a new olive green color to match neutral tones – both indoors and outdoors – and in black and white to match the rest of your Sonos system. Move 2 has the same new intuitive user interface as the recently introduced Era products. Includes a capacitive volume control to easily operate the speaker. You can also use Sonos Voice Control, Amazon Alexa, the Sonos app, Apple AirPlay2, and Bluetooth to play, pause, check battery charge, and more.
• Connect to all your favorite content: Stream audio via WiFi or Bluetooth and enjoy new listening possibilities by connecting your turntable, computer or other sound source via the Sonos line-in adapter.
