I find this a bit worrying as I've purchased three MK1 Play Ones before Christmas. If Gen2 has a better processor surely this will mean similar issues when new features come along this year and next which then gen1 can't either support or handle well? Although I understand sound etc will be the same but surely this shows they kind of rushed out the Play One MK1. Just don't want another episode like what happened with Apple Airplay 2 support. I know Sonos support is gonna continue but it is a bit annoying!
Well I hope so. Want to invest in more Sonos!

Sonos tells us the new Sonos One Gen 2 has had some small internal updates,
including "the addition of Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE),
an updated processor, and increased memory".
But there's no affect on the overall features available nor to the external design.
I wonder and hope that the added memory was for Google support. I also wonder if you could have a gen 1 right and gen 2 left paired as stereo?
They've already said that both Gen 1 and Gen 2 will support Google, so the extra memory can't be for that.

Yes, you can have both generations paired as stereo, or bonded as surround speakers.
