Sonos One November 2017 Support Google Assistant

Will my existing Sonos one have support to Google assistant in next year or near future? Or do I have to purchase a new Sonos one get Google assistant. My current sonos one with Alexa really is pathetic and I’m really looking forward to have Sonos one with Google assistant. I hope I don’t have to buy a brand-new Sonos one with Google assistant. Could you please confirm if the new hardware purchase with Google assistant going to waste my money.

    I am 100% positive the current Sonos One will be compatible with the Google Assistant support coming next year. It's a brand new product, it would be pretty silly if they developed a brand new product only to be outdated in a few months.

    You can control any of your Sonos units from any Alexa device. You can't group at this time via Alexa, but you can play to one grouped via the Sonos app. So does thi smean you won't need a sonos speaker with alexia to control your sonos speakers?

    Correct. If you Enable the Sonos skill then any Alexa device will be able to control your Sonos players but you will need to include the Room name in the command. e.g. 'Play music on Kitchen Sonos' where Kitchen Sonos is the name of a room in the Sonos app.
