The verdict

The Sonos Era 100 SL aims to deliver the same sound as the Era 100 for less money, but it still makes the most sense if you plan to use it as part of a Sonos system at home.

✓Liked: Price, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, Easy to expand with other Sonos speakers

✕Could be better: No IP rating, Sonos app still requires Wi-Fi

Owners

How we verify owners

Nobody who owns the Sonos Era 100 SL has written in yet.

Owner reviews are not paid for, not solicited from specific owners, and not rewritten by us: at most we proofread typos, which is shown on the review’s own page and which the author can undo. The commission SoundGuys may earn on this page comes from retail links, never from owner reviews.
