If you’re looking for a premium smart speaker that sounds better than sub-$100 options, this one Sonos Black Friday Deal may be what you are looking for. The company is deducting $50 from Sonos Era 100which offers improved bass and clarity compared to its predecessor, the Sonos One. In addition, the company has significant discounts on the Sonos Ray sound bar and Sonos Roam Portable Speakerallowing you to save on a variety of home audio products thanks to early Black Friday sales.
Typically $250, the Sonos Era 100 is one of Engadget’s picks for the best smart speakers in 2023. Engadget’s Nathan Ingraham gave the device a review score of 88, writing: “The $100 Era 250 is a complete redesign, inside and out, and the end result is a worthy upgrade and a very versatile speaker.”
The Sonos Era 100’s audio is head and shoulders above budget options like the Echo Dot and Nest Mini, giving you the option of Alexa or the Sonos assistant for voice control. By choosing two speakers, you can turn them into a stereo pair that fills your room with rich, immersive audio. WiFi-connected speakers even have Bluetooth as a secondary option.
If you’re looking for a soundbar this holiday season, the Sonos Ray may also be of interest to you. Engadget found it to have a solid balance of price and performance with its clear dialogue, booming bass, and solid stereo presence. Typically $279, Sonos’ Black Friday deal drops the soundbar to $223, making it a much more attractive purchase for upgrading your TV’s audio.
Meanwhile, Sonos Roam lets you take your music with you. Standing over six and a half inches tall and weighing less than a pound, its sound quality transcends simple Bluetooth speakers it could easily be mistaken for. Pressing and holding a button is all it takes to switch from standard WiFi to Bluetooth when you take the little sound machine to a party or outdoor excursion. Speaking of the latter, the speaker has an IP67 rating, meaning it can withstand being submerged in three feet of water for 30 minutes. Reviewing it for Engadget, Ingraham put it in a bucket of water and threw it across the room; He continued ringing without missing a beat. The speaker even adjusts its audio depending on whether you’re sitting upright or horizontal.
The Sonos sale runs from today until November 27 (Cyber Monday).
