Our Verdict

Sonos One Gen 2/One SL

Apple HomePod mini

The Sonos One Gen 2/One SL and the Apple HomePod mini are similar speakers. The Sonos can produce a more extended low bass with its Trueplay room correction feature enabled. However, the Apple has better directivity, resulting in a wider, more natural soundstage. While it doesn't get as loud as the Sonos, it has less compression present at max volume, so your audio sounds cleaner at louder volumes.
