The Sonos One has no problem hearing you with its six-mic array in the top, even when playing music and over the noise of a kitchen hood going full blast. As some virtual assistants are better than others at different tasks, that could be a real boon, but for now the One gets a helping hand from the progress already made by Amazon with its Echo line of smart speakers. The One currently has Amazon’s Alexa built into it, but Sonos is also promising to roll out support for Google’s Assistant, potentially making it a multi-assistant device.

The complicating factor is that Alexa only supports full voice control of Amazon Music, TuneIn and Spotify, meaning the rest are limited to simple playback and volume controls.

The best thing about being a wireless speaker made smart is that the Sonos One supports 49 different music services, which means it probably works with what you already have, rather than requiring you to sign up to yet another service just to use it.

The Sonos app handles setup and combines all your music services into one easy-to-use controller.
