The popular Sonos Roam is getting a little brother, the Sonos Roam SL. This bluetooth speaker is also nice and compact, but this time without a microphone and cheaper.
Today Sonos introduces the Roam SL, a portable speaker that sounds great at home and can be taken anywhere, without a microphone and at a lower price. Due to the lack of the microphone, certain functions are not supported, such as built-in voice control, automatic trueplay and Sound Swap. Like the Sonos Roam, the Roam SL offers great sound for its size, an all-day battery, easy setup and useful features in a durable and portable design. Roam SL is available from March 15 for € 179 (the ‘regular’ Roam costs € 199) and can be pre-ordered from today via https://www.sonos.com/nl-nl/shop/roam -sl and appears in Lunar White and Shadow Black.
More about Roam (SL)
