help Sonos Roam FAQ
Can the Sonos Roam use both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth?
Yes, the Sonos Roam works on Wi-Fi as part of a Sonos multi-room system and can switch to Bluetooth when away from home. That dual role is the main difference between Roam and a simple Bluetooth speaker.
How water resistant is the Sonos Roam?
The Sonos Roam has an IP67 rating, meaning it is dust-tight and rated for temporary water immersion under test conditions. It is built for poolside and outdoor use, but it still should not be treated like a permanent underwater speaker.
How long does the Sonos Roam battery last?
Sonos rates the Roam for up to around 10 hours of playback. Battery life depends on volume, Bluetooth versus Wi-Fi use, and whether voice assistant features are active.
What changed with Sonos Roam 2 compared with the original Roam?
Sonos Roam 2 arrived in 2024 and added a dedicated Bluetooth button, making pairing simpler than on the original Roam. The original 2021 Roam remains the model many buyers see on resale or discount listings.
