The editors didn't like
The sound can be a little too revealing
And guitar lines in particular can sound a little too piercing for comfort. If you mainly want background music
You should spend half as much on the Sonos One
Expensive
Heavyweight with a massive footprint
US-only
Variable volume in playlists
Not much good for a nonGoogle user
Smart speaker privacy concerns
Better for some music genres than others
Less well balanced sound than Apple HomePod
Not as refined as the Sonos Play
5
More expensive than HomePod
Quite heavy at 11 pounds
Some minor connectivity issues with the app
Can't work as a wireless TV sound bar
£400 is a bit steep and £800 for separated stereo is just stupid

Great sound quality, Impressive bass, High-quality build
Expensive, Two Sonos One speakers sound better, Bulky and heavy
"The Max is the best option for Google Play Music subscribers, as well as for those heavily invested in Google's services and growing product eco-system"...
Big sound, Six microphones do a decent job of listening out for your voice, Auto-adjusting to handle the sound of your room, Auxiliary input means it can take external sources, Can be placed horizontally or vertically
It won't always pick up on your voice, particularly when the volume has been turned up, Touch controls can be finicky, Voice control is preferred, but we'd love a better app for multiroom
Almost every smart speaker has one problem: size.It's not that they're too small, but they're not that big, with the majority of speakers including microphones and a smart assistant missing the size made for a large room, or a small room and a massive imp...
