Excellent sound, Reasonably affordable, Fits snugly almost anywhere
Quite heavy, Living rooms will want two
Sonos has delivered again with the Play:1. We're hugely impressed with what it offers for its size, but perhaps more importantly, we're impressed with what it offers for the price. Sonos has cooked up a superb quality speaker at a more affordable entry po...
Small and convenient, Great sound quality for size, Good value

The Sonos Play:1 is probably the most impressive speaker we've seen from Sonos. It offers all the convenience of its streaming brothers in a smaller, cheaper form. Don't expect it to power a party single-handed, but this speaker is simply brilliant. If y...

A new, low price for Sonos, Cracking sound, Brilliant usability and endless content
Not portable, No inputs for other sources
So yes, we were a little disappointed to discover that the Play:1 isn't the first portable Sonos player, and the lack of computer-friendly audio inputs seems another missed opportunity. But what Sonos has delivered is the most affordable way yet to star...

Price; Looks great; Easy to set up; Sound quality; Lots of music services supported
Need two to get best sound; Surround sound not the best
Ideal for first-timers or people with existing Sonos systems that want to expand it into smaller rooms, the Play 1 is a great way into wireless audio. If you've been dithering about getting Sonos, now is the time....

The Sonos is really great – but it's also really expensive. Unsurprisingly if you pay Ferrari prices, you'll tend to get a Ferrari – and it's the same here. Whilst I'm not entirely convinced £169 is “entry level” it doesn't stop me from recommending the...
Abstract: The Amazon Echo is a really great device. The smart speaker packs in Amazon Alexa, and is capable of performing a variety of tasks. Plus, with additional Skills, the Echo's capabilities are easily augmented. If you actually want to use Amazon's offering...

Most likely, yes. Honestly, I think the system really isnt totally complete on its own in a living room without a stereo pair, which brings up the regular price of a new system to $450, which is quite pricey. That said, I am also a humongous nerd, and I...

If you care about music and have kitted out your home with at least a smattering of smart kit, then the Sonos One should be teetering close to the top of your Christmas list right now. The Play:1 was a fine wireless speaker, so adding to Alexa to it seems...
Easy and reliable connection to router, even with a weaker signal. TruePlay worked well in calibrating the audio to suit my room's acoustics. App was simple to use and navigate. Features a wide variety of music services on a single platform. No trouble re
Can sound tensed up when playing highintensity music. Can only play music from the Sonos App as it does not have Bluetooth, Google Cast, Airplay or an AUX input. Adding NAS as music source is not as straightforward as other brands, Score: 9/12 (24.97%), P
The Sonos PLAY:1 has had quite a successful run since it was released, and no wonder! It is small, sounds good, and with an ever growing list of features. Despite the lack of multiple connectivity options, the Sonos PLAY:1 will appeal to those who want to...
