Disappointed with Sonos Beam - No Bluetooth connectivity

Is this 1980? What are the Sonos product engineers thinking? I am terribly disappointed with the lack of Bluetooth connectivity in Sonos Beam. Such an expensive product missing basic functionality! These days, even the $5 speakers come with a Bluetooth connection. I would not have purchased Sonos Beam had I know this. Buyer beware!

As a general rule, I would never assume a product has the specific feature set that I need, regardless of price.  I get why you would the assumption, but of the 165 soundbars on Best Buy’s website right now, only 87 of them have bluetooth.  Granted, the feature is more likely to be here the higher the price of the soundbar, but where exactly is the line where it’s ok to make feature assumptions?

Back in 1980, there wasn’t that many options for audio sources, nor did we have the internet to quickly do research and compare products before we buy them.
