Sonos has unveiled the second generation of its smallest portable speaker, theRoam 2 . Priced at$179, the new speaker offers some minor yet significant improvements over its predecessor, including easier controls and a quicker setup. 

The Roam 2 can now be used out of the box as a Bluetooth speaker, eliminating the need for an initial setup process with the Sonos app on a home Wi-Fi network. Additionally, it features a dedicated Bluetooth pairing button on the back, simplifying the pairing process compared to the previous model.

While the Roam 2 maintains the same compact design, Sonos CEO Patrick Spence has confirmed that the speaker's battery life has been optimized, offering slightly longer usage time. The Roam 2 boasts of up to 10 hours of continuous playback on a single charge. The speaker also retains popular features from its predecessor, such as Sound Swap and the ability to share audio from a Bluetooth-compatible source across an entire Sonos system. 

Although the Roam 2 does not feature a user-replaceable battery like the Move andMove 2 , Spence emphasized that Sonos has learned from customer feedback, prioritizing tactile buttons and immediate usability. While the speaker's driver layout remains the same, Sonos has not made any explicit claims about improved sound quality. The company does claim the Roam 2 delivers the same rich, detailed sound and bass with the clarity, depth, and fullness you'd expect from a larger speaker. Dust proof and fully waterproof with a rigorously tested IP67 rating, it can handle splashes, dirt, and the elements with ease.
