One thing that Sonos can do that I don’t believe HomePods can do, is support Dolby Atmos in Apple Music. That to me is a game changer. That, and I beleive with the latest sonos at least, you can have one speaker and have stereo sound. That is one major turn off of the Homepod that Apple does on purpose. My smaller Alexa ball can do stereo for a lot cheaper.
