Sonos Unveils Sonos Move 2: A Stereo Speaker with 24-Hour Battery Life
Sonos, the renowned audio company, has recently unveiled its latest portable speaker, the Sonos Move 2. Building upon the success of its predecessor, this new iteration brings stereo sound and an impressive 24-hour battery life to the table. With its sleek design and enhanced features, the Sonos Move 2 is set to be a must-have for audio enthusiasts on the go.
The Sonos Move 2 retains the familiar large, oval shape of its predecessor, encased in a plastic body. However, it introduces a refreshingly new color palette with options like Black, White, and Olive, adding a touch of personalization. Priced at $449 (or €499 in Europe), the Sonos Move 2 offers an enhanced audio experience for an affordable cost.
One of the most notable improvements in the Sonos Move 2 is the introduction of stereo sound. Unlike its predecessor, which provided mono sound, the Move 2 delivers a richer audio experience with two tweeters and one woofer, powered by three Class-D digital amps. This upgrade ensures a more immersive and detailed soundstage, perfect for enjoying your favorite music wherever you are.
Another major enhancement is the extended battery life. With a 24-hour battery capacity, the Sonos Move 2 allows you to listen to your favorite tunes across the day without worrying about running out of power. This significant improvement from the 11-hour battery life of the original Sonos Move makes the Move 2 a reliable companion for outdoor adventures or extended listening sessions.
Furthermore, the Sonos Move 2 offers added convenience with its line-in audio connection feature. By utilizing Sonos’ USB-C dongle, users can easily connect external devices to the speaker, expanding their audio options. Additionally, the Move 2’s USB-C port can even be used to charge other devices, thanks to its 44Wh battery.
Controls on the Sonos Move 2 have also been revamped. Taking inspiration from the recently launched Era 300 speaker, the Move 2 features intuitive touch controls that allow for effortless navigation and adjustment of volume, playback, and more. This user-friendly interface ensures a seamless and enjoyable experience with the speaker.
In terms of durability and connectivity, the Sonos Move 2 remains consistent with its predecessor. It weighs a portable three kilograms and maintains its dust-proof and water-resistant properties, with an IP56 rating. Moreover, it supports both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, elevating the overall connectivity experience. With upgraded versions of these wireless technologies, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.0, users can expect enhanced performance and stability when connecting their devices.
The Sonos Move 2 is now available for pre-order on the Sonos website, with deliveries estimated to begin on September 20, 2023. If you’re a music aficionado seeking a portable speaker that delivers premium sound quality, extended battery life, and seamless connectivity, the Sonos Move 2 is undoubtedly worth considering.
