Sonos Black Friday speaker deals are finally here – and they've been worth the wait

Black Friday is now in full swing, with John Lewis, Currys PC World, Argos, Tesco and more unleashing some pretty stellar deals. And now, Sonos is joining the fray. The connected smart speaker brand has slashed prices across its range, including on the portable Sonos Move, Sonos Beam soundbar and the Sonos One, which includes access to chatty AI helpers, Alexa and Google Assistant.

Discounts to the Sonos One aren’t all that uncommon, however, we’ve never seen a price drop for the Sonos Move before. That’s likely because Sonos Move only launched one year ago, in September 2019 after years of rumours that Sonos was looking to add a Bluetooth-enabled portable speaker to its connected sound system. So, whether you’re looking to invest in a single smart speaker for the kitchen, or splash the cash and build a 5.0 home cinema set-up (using one Sonos Beam and two Sonos One speakers) there are some brilliant savings to be had shopping in the Black Friday sales.

Sonos has slashed £100 off the price of the Sonos Beam, Sonos Sub and Sonos Move, with the Sonos One and Sonos One SL (which looks identical but forgoes the AI voice assistant in favour of a smaller price tag) getting reduced by £40 each. The deals, which were announced earlier this week, went live early this morning, Thursday November 26, 2020.

The discounted prices will be available until Monday November 30, 2020. So, that means these discounts encompass Black Friday as well as Cyber Monday.

The discounted prices will be available from Sonos, as well as a number of retail partners. Some high street stores may offer even more savings on top of these recommended price cuts, but that’ll be at their own discretion. Based on what we’ve seen so far during the Black Friday 2020 sales… don’t hold your breath for much more of a price drop. However, that’s not to say all retailers are equal. One of the biggest differentiators is the hardware warranty.

For example, while Sonos offers a one-year warranty for any issues that could crop up with the smart speaker, John Lewis offers two-years. And if you buy any of the below Sonos kit from Richer Sounds, you’ll get a six-year warranty on the hardware courtesy of its VIP club, which is completely free to all customers.

All of these stores have stock of Sonos One SL, Sonos One, Sonos Sub and Sonos Beam, so pick whichever item works best for you. We’ve included a comprehensive list of every Sonos product included in the Black Friday sale below…

As well as the price cuts to some of its most popular devices, Sonos has announced a number of Christmas-inspired stations for its music service, Sonos Radio.

This streaming option, which is only available to Sonos customers, includes handpicked playlists of tracks – categorised by mood, genre, or curated by an artist. Sonos Radio will also see the launch of a special radio show from Dolly Parton, dubbed Holly Dolly Christmas Special, following the release of her chart-topping holiday record.

Dolly’s show will debut in November and December on Holidaze, one of two new holiday stations playing the best holiday hits and the other, Holiday Concerto, featuring instrumental renditions of holiday classics. Holly Dolly Christmas Special will also be available on Dolly’s Songteller Radio in HD and on the Sonos Mixcloud Archive for listeners everywhere.
