Sonos makes two versions of the One: the One and One SL. Luckily, besides the colour, the black and white versions are identical.

But the black version look very sleek and might fit better with your living room or bedroom. I personally went for the white versions, which can look a little dirtier (obviously) but fit the aesthetic of my flat better. Depending on your decor, choosing between them is one of the most important choices. Sonos makes the One in two colours: white or black. You can also control granular settings, such as the EQ of each device, and group/un-group devices in different rooms. One good example is the huge library of music and background noise available in the app, some behind a monthly subscription paywall, that offer something different to other apps. While you might use Spotify or Apple Music as your main music app, the Sonos app – a requirement for setting up and managing your Sonos devices – works really well and comes with some nice features. This is a useful feature but I honestly don't think you need to do it unless you're looking to fill a very large room with audio. You can also pair two Sonos One smart speakers together for stereo output, with distinct left and right channels delivered. Precise and nimble are good words to describe the Sonos One's audio output, with the overall soundstage well-balanced. Obviously, there isn't a huge amount of bass, but vocals are always clear and instruments stand out and are well defined. Sonos One sound quality is excellentĪs T3 states in its Sonos One review, this smart speaker is such a good buy as, for its size, it offers excellent sound quality.
