The Sonos Ace performs similarly to other premium noise-canceling headphones from Bose, Sony, and Apple, but its lighter, more flexible headband makes a huge difference in comfort for people with sensitive heads. They’re the only wireless over-ear headphones I can wear for hours on end without experiencing any tingling or pain on my scalp, and they’re currently on sale during Prime Day for just $299 — their lowest price ever.
With noise-canceling activated, I can work in a busy café or library without distraction. And when it’s time to leave, switching to transparency mode at the push of a button ensures I’m safely aware of my surroundings as I make my way to my destination. Phone calls come through clearly on both ends, and those who own a Sonos soundbar can even use them to watch TV. At its retail price of $449, the Ace faces stiff competition from Apple’s AirPods Max and the Bose QuietComfort Ultra. But at this sale price, the Sonos is clearly the best value of the bunch.
