S2 Not Ready for Primetime

If you’re on the fence about upgrading to S2, my humble advice to you: DON’T do it!  Not a mature platform.  

It’s slow, buggy, unstable, and should never have been released in in the condition it is in.  It has transformed me from a huge Sonos fan to having zero faith and appreciation for the technology.

Oh, and by the way, there really is NO additional value over S1.  So there’s ZERO reason to make that move--stick with the mature option and adopt in a year or two when S2 sucks a little less--hoping that day comes sooner.

      Agree S2 brings little or no value (unless the ARC) and yes unfortunately have upgraded without ongoing reverting to S1. Since upgrading , spend numerous hours on phone with support yet issues not resolved. S2 app is slow, sluggish and slow to respond. Half of the time it doesn’t find speakers, only finds half, taking 10+seconds (and before u ask I’m using recent, moderne &fast  iPhone/iPad devices)
      So yes can’t agree more Sonos didn’t do the community a favor releasing this buggy, slow, immature S2 software , especially Not without providing a rollback method

      So true.
