Sonos is taking another swing at premium headphones, but the most interesting part of the new Ace Ultra isn’t necessarily how they sound; it’s what happens when you put your phone down. The Sonos Ace Ultra is the company’s latest flagship over-ear headphones, bringing a new 40mm driver, upgraded Adaptive Active Noise Cancelation (ANC), and up to 35 hours of battery life with ANC switched on.

Sonos has a new soundbar, and you might have trouble spotting what’s changed just by looking at it. Launched alongside the new Sonos Ace Ultra headphones, the Beam Ultra keeps the relatively compact footprint that made the Beam an appealing option for people who don’t want a giant speaker beneath their TV.

DLSS 5 isn’t taking the artist out of the equation When…
