AirPods Pro 2 vs. Sony WF-1000XM5: Apple's Newest Update Takes On the Master
Apple's latest AirPods update adds features that are mainstays on Sony's flagship line. CNET's Jide Akinrinade finds out how the two giants approach these attributes.

Jide is CNET's video producer for the UK team, based in London. When the reality of actually making it as an actor dawned on him, Jide figured a life behind the camera would be a more obtainable goal. A techie at heart, he is now able to combine his two passions. If he's not at the gym, you can find him chilling with Netflix.
The AirPods Pro 2's latest update adds two new features: Conversational Awareness and an Adaptive mode. Both settings are mainstays on Sony's WF-1000XM5 earbuds. I wanted to see exactly how each company approaches these features.
Will Apple, in typical fashion, strip away the user controls and automate these features, in comparison to Sony's more hands-on approach? The video above will help answer these questions and more.
