Sonos has identified overheating issues with first-generation Roam speakers, distinct from the newer Roam 2 model released in 2021.

The overheating can lead to USB-C ports melting, rendering the devices unusable and unsafe for charging operations.

This issue may arise from extended charging durations and environmental factors like high ambient temperatures, as suggested by user reports.

Sonos acknowledges the problem but considers it rare, with no recall initiated; ongoing monitoring and optimizations are in place.

The first-generation Roam featured Bluetooth alongside Wi-Fi connectivity, marking a shift in Sonos's design philosophy compared to earlier products.

Users have reported similar overheating issues in forums over the years, but recent occurrences have gained more attention.
