TYLER HAYES Share Share on Facebook Share on TwitterShare on LinkedIn Share on PinterestShare on RedditShare on Flipboard Share via Email Comments Tech & Science Spotify TravelI once lugged Sonos' 6.6 pound "portable" Move speaker on a weekend trip so I could have great sound on vacation. I quickly regretted the decision. Move sounds impressive, but its weight and size are largely untenable for a trip. Apart from carrying it from room to room or into the backyard, it's more of a stationary speaker. The Sonos Roam, at just under 1 pound, on the other hand, is the speaker I would have wanted to travel with. > The Sonos Roam also has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, like the Move, for uninterrupted use in or out of the home. It has a 10-hour battery life and is rugged enough to be submerged underwater for 30 minutes or to survive a drop.
