Why this model

The Sonos Move 2 is a portable stereo speaker with Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.3, made for people who want real living-room sound they can also take to the garden, the terrace or another room. If you are looking for a Sonos Move 2 review in white, it is a speaker you can leave on display, with a restrained matte finish.

According to Sonos, it offers up to 24 hours of continuous playback, an IP56 rating and a removable, replaceable battery. In this guide we look at its design, daily use, key specs and who it makes sense for in Belgium, compared with options like the Roam 2 or a smaller Bluetooth speaker.

Design: a matte speaker made to be seen

The Move 2 comes in black, white and green, all with a matte finish according to Sonos. In white it blends in on a sideboard, a shelf or patio furniture, without the glossy plastic look of many portable speakers.

It measures 241 × 160 × 127 mm and its compact, elongated shape is easy to carry. The included wireless charging base also gives it a permanent spot at home: place it on top and it charges.

Daily use: from the living room to the terrace

At home, the Move 2 joins your Sonos system over Wi-Fi and works with the Sonos app. It also supports AirPlay 2 on Apple devices, and Bluetooth 5.3 takes over when you leave your network's range.

With Auto Trueplay, it tunes its sound to the room using its microphones, so you don't have to adjust everything by hand when you move it. It supports Sonos Voice Control and Amazon Alexa, depending on country and language availability.

Key specs: battery, durability, sound

According to Sonos, the 3,100 mAh battery lasts up to 24 hours of continuous playback, an estimate at moderate volume over Wi-Fi. The battery is removable and replaceable, which extends the speaker's life. It is rated IP56, so it is protected against dust and high-pressure water jets.

For sound, it has three class D digital amplifiers, one mid-woofer and two side-facing tweeters for a stereo result. It weighs 3 kg according to Sonos: it is a carry-around speaker, not a pocket one.

Who it is for, and who it isn't

The Move 2 suits anyone who wants one speaker for the living room, kitchen and garden, whether they already have a Sonos system or plan to build one. It is also a good pick if you want a design speaker to leave out rather than put away after use.

It suits you less if you want a light speaker for hiking or a backpack: the Roam 2 is more compact. If you only listen in one room, a fixed speaker like the Era 100 is enough.
