7 reasons to buy Sonos Ace over AirPods Max

After long anticipation, Sonos has finally thrown its name into the over-ear headphone market. After years of establishing a cult following for its quality soundbars and then speakers, Sonos debuted its first headphones dubbed the Sonos Ace. Sitting at a $449 price point, the over-ears are slightly pricier than some of Pocket-lint’s competitor favorites like the Bose Quiet Comfort Ultra or the Sony WH-1000XM5. The Ace, however, are $100 cheaper than not only a team favorite, but what has become an industry classic and streetwear staple — the ever so trendy Apple AirPods Max.
