The Sonos One smart speaker is among the most popular. It works with Alexa and Google Assistant, but it also supports Google Assistant. Additionally, it can be used with Apple's AirPlay 2 for iOS device users. The speaker will not only support Alexa, but you will also get a lot of smart features.
On the Sonos One, you can ask Alexa questions and have her play music. You can also set reminders, purchase items from Amazon, check your shipments and control compatible smart home gadgets. You can also access third-party services such as Spotify.
The Sonos One's outstanding sound quality is what sets it apart from Amazon Echo speakers. The speaker is loud and clear without distortion, with a solid bass response for its size. The high end is clear and crisp, making vocals and cymbals shine through the mix.
Stereo pairing can give you a more balanced and sweet sound if you have the money.
The downside is that unlike the Echo, the speaker doesn't have Bluetooth support nor an auxiliary port. This makes it a closed system which locks you in to the Sonos ecosystem. Although the speaker is a bit more expensive than others, it delivers better audio performance than other cheaper options.
