No more Google Assistant but big upgrades everywhere else.
that the Era speakers do not support SonosNet, a feature that created a private network for the speakers to communicate over whenever one of them was plugged into ethernet. Sonos seems to believe the inclusion of more robust Wi-Fi 6 connectivity makes up for that omission. Keep in mind that if you’re using Sonos speakers as surrounds for any of the company’s soundbars, they communicate directly over a 5Ghz connection, so you don’t need to worry about wireless interference in that scenario.
You can opt out of additional usage collection, but Sonos warns that doing so will disable functionality like personalization services , Sonos Radio, voice control, and more. But make no mistake: there will inevitably be potential buyers disappointed about Google Assistant being left out of the party. Sonos claims Google has made it more technically burdensome over the last year to include Assistant on third-party speakers and says this has nothing to do with the ongoing legal battle between both companies. Whatever the reasoning, it’s consumers who lose out in the end.
