Hello,

I was wondering if anyone would be able to share their thoughts on the Airpods Pro and how they line up against the BOSE QC35 or Sony WH 1000xm3's. I currently have the Sony headohones and the Airpods 2nd gen with wireless charging case. Thinking of selling them both off and consolidating to the Airpods pro. Thanks in advance.

MKBHD (on YouTube) has a solid video that covers the AirPods Pro vs the Sony headphones.

iirc The Sony model sounds better but loses in all other categories (native integration, portability, ease-of-use, etc).

I would recommend you retain the Sony headset. They are great, but you will enjoy the connectivity features of the AirPods. I'm personally waiting for new Studios with USC-C connectivity and improved sound.
