Physically, the Move 2 resembles the original Move closely, with the exception of the ruggedized, matte-finish the exterior as well as the rubberized top and bottom. The new paint on Olive colour does help make the Move 2 fit better on your shelf at home in terms of looks, and it won't look out of place on a picnic mat either. Having an IP56 rating means that the Move 2 can be used outdoors. It can resist dust and splashes of water but isn't fully waterproof, so don't get it submerged. As its name suggests, the Move 2 is designed to be a wireless and portable speaker. It has a wireless charging base that lets you quickly and easily bring it with you. This, in our opinion, is the defining and best feature of the Move 2. The docking base lets you set up "base" in any room, and then you can return to it to charge when it runs out of battery.
Sonos estimates that the Move 2 can last 24 hours per charge. In real world usage, over the past few weeks with it playing tunes while we've been working from home, we've put it back on the dock to charge overnight only about once a week, and have yet to encounter any issues with low battery levels during playback. Just like the original Move, the battery is also replaceable for the Move 2, which is great for longevity of the unit.
