Sonos One Alternative: The 3 best smart speakers
Smart speakers like the Sonos One are very trendy right now, but there are also alternatives to Sonos. Because the combination of voice assistant and good sound quality also unites other speakers. In the video we show what the Sonos One can do and what other speakers have to measure themselves against.
Sonos One Alternative: Smart Speaker with Siri - Apple HomePod
The main feature of the HomePod is the integration of Apple's Siri voice assistant. In our CHIP test, however, the HomePod showed that it can also score with the workmanship and sound quality: whether bass or high registers - the HomePod has always proven good sound in our test.
- The Apple HomePod costs 299.00 euros, is available in the colors space gray and white and has an attractive design.
- It is easy to set up and has a tremendous sound. If you use Apple Music or your own music with iTunes, it can be easily streamed via the HomePod.
- The disadvantage is that the HomePod can only be used with Apple devices and that Siri does not offer a completely equivalent alternative to Alexa and the Google Assistant.

Sonos alternative with Alexa: Amazon Echo Plus
The Echo Plus (2nd generation) from Amazon places particular value on smart homes and offers extensive networking of smart devices. At the same time, it offers the best sound quality among the Echo devices, according to our test result.
- The Amazon Echo Plus costs € 149.99 and is available in the colors anthracite, sandstone and light gray with a fabric surface. There are six different colored covers that you can change.
- The sound is very good and balanced, but does not quite match that of the HomePod. But the Echo is much more compact and offers countless functions and skills.
- The integration of a ZigBee smart home hub is particularly practical. With this you can connect almost all smart home devices directly to the Echo and control them with a voice command.

Expensive Sonos alternative: the Google Home Max
The Google Home Max costs more than the Sonos One and justifies this with its better sound. In the CHIP test, the Google Home Max showed that it delivers strong basses that are really at the top level.
- The Google Home Max costs 369.95 euros and comes with a fabric front in the colors carbon and chalk.
- The sound is very good and roughly on the level of the Apple HomePod.
- The built-in voice assistant is the Google Assistant, which knows a surprising number of functions and is easy to use. It not only supports Android, but also iOS.
- A disadvantage is the enormous size, although you can put the Google Home Max upright. In addition, the price is slightly higher than for other smart speakers.
