The Sonos Era 300 and Era 100 are the first brand-new smart speakers from the company since 2017. While the smaller Era 100 is set to replace the existing Sonos One speaker, the Era 300 sits just below the flagship Sonos 5 model. That could suggest that an Era 500 speaker could follow, giving users a choice of three models, rather than the former two.
Having previously used (and owned) the Sonos 5, I was keen to see how the Era 300 compared, as well as how both models stood against the considerably cheaper Apple HomePod second generation. While the Era 300 costs £100 less than the Sonos 5, it is in many ways, this is a better speaker.
