What is the difference between sonos one and sonos one SL

The Sonos One SL doesn’t have a mic for voice control.


“SL” stands for ‘sans langue”.

(Actually it doesn’t.  I just made this up)


Even though it’s not true, it could serve as an “aide mémoire”.  Or as you say in France, a “memory aid”.


SL stands for “speechless”


SL stands for “speechless”

You don't say?


Really easy to see the difference on the Sonos website….wow


Thank you


Also, (another minor difference) that may add a ‘slight’ complication for a very few users…

A Sonos One can be used on both an S1/S2 Sonos system, whereas a new Sonos One-SL (or a used Sonos One-SL previously used on an S2 system) cannot be used on an S1 Sonos system. The SL is basically S2 only, unless registered pre-March 2021 and just run on an S1 system only.
