If you’ve been paying attention to the latest Sonos rumors, then you already know their upcoming “Ray” sound bar and plans for launches a voice assistant that prioritizes speed and privacy. While we wait for official confirmation of these, you can add another rumor to the list: posters on the Sonos subreddit have reason to believe they’ll see the new colors of the Sonos Roam speaker revealed this week.
Emails sent to subscribers said “something colorful” is on the way with a countdown. Any doubt about what that something could be was removed once the posters noticed that the URL in the email includes “roamcolors_teaser_owners”.
We’ve seen expanded colors arrive from Sonos with limited edition releases for the One Y Play: 1 speakers, however, those also added a bit more to the price. The Roam has already received a price increase from $10 to $179, as Sonos adjusted the price of its lineup last year and said it was due to supply chain issues.
Assuming the URL wasn’t some incredibly clever misdirection, Sonos customers will soon find out if they can take the pocket (and occasionally No microphone) Speaker roaming in colors other than the default black and white.
