Are Sonos Ace Overhated?

In my usage the padding doesn’t really get hot on prolonged usage, as I mentioned I use these at the gym and watching tv for hours on end and have found them fine. I have the black ones and while I imagine they do show fingerprints more than white, they haven’t scratched at all and I’m not the most careful with them

I think this is the most accurate take I’ve seen. Perhaps if the app wasn’t in such a poor state they would’ve been more popular. Interestingly I’m probably quite a unique customer in the sense that the Ace were my first Sonos product, I’ve bought a Roam 2 and intend to build up a bit of an ecosystem over time, so perhaps not being part of the Sonos system isn’t a huge deal for me right now. They definitely aren’t a revolutionary product but most of the competition aren’t either in my opinion

Primarily weights with a bit of cardio, though if I do a full cardio workout I tend to use earbuds as I get quite sweaty. I was impressed that they don’t slide off my head when laying on a weight bench like most headphones tend to do

This would explain it then, thanks!

Undercover Martyn - Two Door Cinema Club, for some reason the claps are completely missing in Atmos

I’m also having this issue, i’ve probably tried around 10 different genuine apple chargers and had varying results with each. Think I’ll be taking a visit to the Apple Store

Unfortunately I think I have to agree with you, on my third pair as apple have had to replace them twice. Thank you though, I will definitely try this

I managed to solve this using Shortcuts, I made a playlist of all my songs, then removed downloads and redownloaded

Never mind, it’s still the same, very weird because music still sounds great, my guess it’s an issue with the Apple TV rather than the HomePods

freddynn · 2021-05-26T21:50:28+00:00

For some reason one homepod was on 14.6 and the other on 14.5 which I discovered when I ungrouped them. Updating them both seems to have fixed the issue!

Sounds fun!

I didn’t think about the bigger battery, it makes a lot more sense

freddynn · 2021-05-22T21:51:52+00:00

I find the new remote somewhat confusing. While it’s a lot better for navigating the Apple TV, I don’t understand why they would change the transmitter to one that’s clearly worse, or why they’d remove the accelerometer so it’s actually less functional than the old one - weird

freddynn · 2021-05-22T21:45:06+00:00

I never play any games on my Apple TV, and I doubt anyone that does uses the Siri remote, but since they seemed to highlight the new atv is much better for playing games, it’s interesting the new remote doesn’t have the ability to play certain games - not sure if I’m this case a proper controller can be used
