Samsung vs Sonos MOVE2-BLACK — Comparison

The Samsung HW-LS60D Music Frame at £399 and the Sonos Move 2 at £449 are both premium wireless speakers in black, but they serve very different purposes. The Samsung doubles as a picture frame for your wall or shelf, while the Sonos is a rugged portable speaker that works at home and outdoors.

The Samsung Music Frame is designed to blend into your décor: it looks like a picture frame, letting you display your own photos or artwork while hiding a speaker system inside. It streams music over WiFi and Bluetooth and can work with compatible Samsung TVs and soundbars to expand a home cinema setup. The Sonos Move 2 is a portable stereo speaker with WiFi and Bluetooth, a long-lasting battery and a durable, weather-resistant build. On WiFi it joins a Sonos multi-room system, while Bluetooth lets you take it into the garden or on trips. It is known for powerful, room-filling sound.

Your listening habits decide this. If you want a stylish speaker that disappears into your living room and pairs with a Samsung TV, the Music Frame is a clever choice. If you want one speaker that works throughout the home and outdoors, or plan to build a Sonos multi-room system, the Move 2 is worth the extra £50. The Sonos is heavier, as it is built for portability with a large battery, so consider how often you will carry it.

Bottom line: choose the Samsung HW-LS60D Music Frame at £399 if you want a design-led speaker that doubles as a picture frame and pairs with a Samsung TV. Choose the Sonos Move 2 at £449 if you want a powerful portable speaker for home and garden.
