Portable Sonos Play speaker leaks on Canadian Best Buy

An unannounced Sonos speaker called Play has been spotted on the Canadian Best Buy site. The Sonos Play looks like a slightly shrunk-down version of the Move 2 with a loop on the back for toting it around. While nothing is confirmed yet, it’s listed at CAD $399.99 with a release date of March 31st, 2026. In addition to Wi-Fi for multi-room Sonos setups with up to 32 speakers, there’s support for AirPlay 2 and Bluetooth 5.3. There’s even an aux in for hooking up to a turntable or other audio equipment.

The Best Buy listing mentions Trueplay, which automatically tunes sound to your environment. Unlike the Move, the Play says it’s IP67 rated for waterproof and dustproof operation, similar to the Sonos Roam. In addition, the battery life is listed at 24 hours, and the Sonos Play includes a wireless charging base. Supposedly, it can even function as a power bank, charging your phone over USB-C.

If that release date is accurate, it likely won’t be much longer before Sonos officially takes the wraps off this one.
