Yep, the Sonos One (Gen 2) does work with Alexa. According to how the manufacturer describes it, Alexa is built right into the speaker. This means you can just use your voice to play music, ask questions, control your schedule, and even manage your smart home gadgets with Alexa's help.

But here's something to keep in mind: the Sonos One (Gen 2) doesn't have Bluetooth. It relies on Wi-Fi and Ethernet for connectivity. Sonos went this route to focus on great audio quality over Wi-Fi, which usually sounds better than Bluetooth.

Our research shows that some people really appreciate this, especially if they use multiple speakers around their home for that nice, lossless sound experience.

That said, a few folks are a bit disappointed about the missing Bluetooth, feeling that it should be there, considering the speaker's price. If Bluetooth is a must-have for you, you might want to look at other smart speakers that offer both Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

Still, if you're after top-notch sound and want it to mesh perfectly with a Sonos setup, the Sonos One (Gen 2) is pretty great.

Plus, with Alexa built-in, it makes controlling your music and smart devices super easy without lifting a finger. It's a solid pick for sound quality and smart functionality in any modern home.
