Sonos sent me an email asking me to write a review of the Ace. I spent a couple hours writing out a thorough and thoughtful review with lots of feedback. They haven’t posted it, and at this point it’s clear they have no intention to. So their review section is cherrypicked reviews, and the average rating is willfully biased.
Sonos won't post my Ace review

+19Hi
Welcome to the Sonos Community!
I am unaware of the guidelines for these reviews as they are handled by a different team in a different department, but as

+6Does the review say “Disappointing - since they can't act as a Sonos zone - and expensive, especially compered to the likes of the superb Sony WH-1000XM5s. The software changes brought in to accomodate them have ruined Sonos’s reputation and driven many loyal customers away.”
You’re welcome.

No, I don't even know what a "Sonos zone" is
+18Still curious about your review. Maybe you could ad your experience the new features that where added last week?
The previous poster meant “room” instead of “zone” I think. Some miss this feature, I do not really.
Back when, Sonos used Zone instead of Room, which many of us found less confusing.
So you would have your Zone Player 80 as a Zone in your media room.
You could also have your Pair of Play 5s (one Zone) and a Play 3 (a second Zone) as Zones in your living room.
Post it here.
3/5
the good;
- very good sound.
- great ANC.
- great ergonomics and controls.
- cool party trick - the TV audio swap.
- legacy audio and charge cables included.
the bad;
- too heavy, not too comfortable over time.
- pleather cup cushions are too hot/sweaty - seems like a great opportunity to offer a cooling-cloth option.
- the App and eco-system performance - the App has good options, but using the App is frustrating.
