Overview
- Play is a battery-powered hybrid with IP67 protection that works over Wi‑Fi at home and Bluetooth on the go, delivering stereo from two tweeters and a mid‑woofer with added passive radiators.
- New Bluetooth grouping links up to four units, allowing Play to pair with other Play speakers or Move 2 models for multi‑speaker playback outside home Wi‑Fi.
- Battery life is rated at up to 24 hours with inductive dock or USB‑C charging, a user‑replaceable battery, a built‑in carrying strap, and the ability to charge a phone via USB‑C.
- Era 100 SL drops built‑in microphones for a lower‑cost option suited to setups that do not need voice control, retaining the Era 100’s sound profile and connectivity.
- Preorders began March 10 on Sonos and Amazon with deliveries set for March 31, pricing the Play at about €349–350 and the Era 100 SL at €199.
