Our Verdict

Bose SoundLink Color II

Sonos Roam/Roam SL

The Sonos Roam/Roam SL is a better speaker than the Bose SoundLink Color II overall. With its room correction feature enabled, the Sonos offers a better-balanced sound profile that can produce a more extended low bass than the Bose. Its Roam variant also offers outstanding voice assistant support with Alexa and Google Assistant built-in. That said, you can pair the Bose to two devices simultaneously, which can be useful if you need to quickly switch between audio sources. It can also get slightly louder than the Sonos with less compression at max volume, resulting in cleaner audio at louder volumes.
