Sonos has announced two new speakers today, its first new products of 2026, following a whisper-quiet 2025 and a tumultuous 2024. The two products — Sonos Era 100 SL and Sonos Play — look set to shore up the company's product line by offering affordability and portability.The Sonos Era 100 SL handles the former. It's essentially a cheaper version of the Sonos Era 100, stripping out the mic and paring down the features to serve as a new entry point to the ecosystem. Sonos is pricing this speaker at USD $189 / GBP £169 / EUR €199 / AUD $289 with pre-orders going live today and general availability on March 31.Far more interesting, however, is the latter. The all-new Sonos Play is something of a middle-ground between the Sonos Move 2 and the Sonos Roam 2. It's loaded with both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth depending on whether you want to use it at home or out and about. There's 24 hours of battery life but Sonos also includes a wireless charging base so the Sonos Play can sit happily at home until you need to go mobile.
