The sonos roam It is one of the most interesting portable speakers that we can find on the market. It is small, it is very powerful and also resistant, being able to be submerged or exposed to dust or earth without suffering inconveniences. But beyond its many virtues, part of the public has claimed Sonos for the lack of greater availability of colors (today it only exists in black or white), and it seems that the manufacturer has taken note.
The thing is Sonos would plan to release versions of the Roam in more colors, according to a recent “leak”. And we mention it in quotes because it is not the typical case of leak that arises from images or data that are disclosed under the table. On the contrary, this rumor has begun to circulate after a marketing campaign that the brand itself has launched and in which clues would have been left that would point to this possibility.
Sonos sent an email to subscribers with a somewhat cryptic proposal. The message simply said that “something colorful” was on its way and included an image of a young woman who would appear to be lying by a pool and a countdown. The email also incorporated the phrase “Your future looks bright,” and not much else.
The campaign didn’t say much, clearly. So where does the rumor come from that the Sonos Roam is coming in different colors? From a link.
As posted by a user on the subreddit r/sonosanalyzing the URL included in the email, found that it included “utm_campaign=roamcolors_teaser_owners”. While in another comment it was indicated that the name of the image file included in the message was “Roam_Colors_Launch.png”.
The Sonos Roam would be renewed with more colors
The evidence pointed out on Reddit seems to assume that the aesthetic renewal of the Sonos Roam will come with new color options. Now it only remains to wait to find out if this is really the case. What is not clear is whether the company planted these clues waiting to be found, or if they were simply not careful enough about it.
The truth is that this week several news are expected regarding Sonos products, and the Roam could make a star appearance. Let us remember that the portable speaker has received very good reviews, both for its tiny size and for its impressive sound and excellent build quality. In addition, in March of this year the SL version was launched, which does not include a microphone, and is cheaper than the conventional one.
In addition to the possible aesthetic renewal of the Sonos Roam, these days the expectation is growing around the announcements prepared by the renowned brand of audio products. On the one hand, awaiting the launch of the Sonos Ray, its new budget soundbar – which has already been leaked in great detail. It will offer a similar design to what we have seen in the Beam model and would sell for around $250.
The other big release would be Sonos Voice, a voice assistant similar to Alexa and Google Assistant. It would arrive first in the United States from the beginning of June through a software update, and it would be further proof of the brand’s interest in getting more actively into the field of services. The virtual assistant would be compatible with a wide variety of music and radio applications, but in principle it would not work with Spotify and YouTube Music.
