<\/p>\n
Get quality sound on the go with Move: the battery-powered smart speaker from Sonos. Durable, long-lasting, and has dual WiFi\/Bluetooth capabilities.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
\nThe new “Move” speaker is Sonos’ first (and long overdue) foray into the portable market.<\/p>\nThe speaker looks like a larger, more chubby version of their Sonos One and has an integrated battery pack and handle for easy portability.<\/p>\n
Battery life is said to run a good 10 hours and charging is made easy with a docking station you simply sit the speaker on when indoors.<\/p>\n
The Move is weather resistant, but not designed to be in a downpour, and allows music to be played back via AirPlay 2, Sonos’ app or Bluetooth!<\/p>\n
It retains voice assistant functionality and can be used with either Amazon’s Alexa or Google’s voice services.<\/p>\n
She ain’t cheap though. The new Sonos Move will set you back over double the cost of a Sonos One speaker at A$649. That’s made an even tougher sell now with the announcement of the new Sonos One SL speaker<\/a> for just US$179.<\/p>\n
The Sonos Move is available to pre-order in Australia now with units expected to ship in late September.<\/p>\n
