3 reasons why AirPods Pro 2 owners should consider upgrading to the USB-C model
The <a href="https://www.sonos.com/en-us/shop/one.html" target="_blank" target="_blank">Sonos One</a> is the company's first speaker to include voice assistant powers. It's for people who are audiophiles first, voice-assistant fans second. Like Google Home and Amazon Echo devices, it uses always-on microphones to listen for commands. Currently, the $200 One <a href="http://money.cnn.com/2017/10/04/technology/sonos-one-speaker-alexa/index.html">only works with Amazon's Alexa</a>, but the company says Google Assistant integration is coming soon. If so, it will be the best way to get both services in one great-sounding place.
