A microphone icon above lets you mute the mic when you don't want a voice assistant listening in. An indicator light sits above the play/pause icon, with a smaller microphone status light above that. These icons are the One's touch controls, letting you play/pause and adjust volume by tapping, or skip tracks by swiping. A play/pause icon sits in the middle, flanked by two four-dot icons on either side.
Instead of a contoured top panel with mechanical buttons for playback and volume, the One uses a completely flat top panel with touch-sensitive controls. While the One shares a similar profile with the Play:1, its physical controls are completely different. The power connector plugs into the bottom, in a recess with a channel that lets the cable run out of the back, under the Ethernet port. The sides of the grille stop on the back, leaving room for a wide, solid strip that holds an Ethernet port and setup button. The top is a smooth, solid cap that adds almost an inch of height past the grille. The speaker is available in black or white, with a grille that runs almost the entire way around its sides. It shares the same coffee can-like design, measuring 6.3 by 4.7 by 4.7 inches (HWD) in a squarish near-cylinder. DesignĪt a glance, the One could be easily mistaken for the Play:1. Because the two speakers are so similar and no features have been announced yet that are exclusive to the Gen 2, we consider both versions to be effectively identical in terms of the experience you would get from either of them. The Sonos One Gen 1 is still available from Sonos alongside the Gen 2 version, at a discounted $169 price. But these upgrades can enable new features specific to the updated speaker in the future.
SONOS ONE GEN 2 BLUETOOTH
BLE is only used as an option for setting up the speaker, and Bluetooth audio streaming is not present on this new model, which the company is calling the Sonos One Gen 2.Īccording to Sonos, the new processor and additional memory do not currently represent any new features or noticeable performance changes between the Gen 2 and the original One, which is now called the Sonos One Gen 1. Sonos recently updated the One with a faster processor and more memory, as well as Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) support.
