> (Yes there were noise-cancelling headphones before, but always bulky or with wires. With AirPods, they're just effortless to bring+wear.)

Not true. Sony WF-1000XM3's were released before airpod pros, and they have ANC tech that is by all accounts better than Apples. Its the same ANC module that is in the WH-1000XM3's which are viewed by many to be the best ANC headphone right now.

Off topic, but Sony really needs to get better with naming their products.

It's true, but the main advantage of the Airpods is how compact and convenient overall they are. I keep them in my front pocket usually and I don't even feel that they are here. Sony's case is just too bulky for my taste: https://i.imgur.com/OcJrMHn.jpg
