Sony's range of products

Apple Homepod Rival

Sony will launch its smart connected speaker LF-S50G that will look like Apples HomePod but will use Google Assistant.
The device, to be launched in October for $199.99, will feature a full-range speaker for vocal and treble notes, a sub-woofer for bass and an omnidirectional two-stage diffuser to spread sound across the room, The Verge reported late on Thursday.
It can pair over Bluetooth, NFC and or WiFi, and supports multi-room audio controls. It is also water-resistant meaning it can withstand splashes and is available in white or black colours. Unlike the Google Home, Sony’s speaker would be able to recognize gesture controls to play music, skip tracks, or adjust the volume.

Google released its assistant SDK in May to speaker manufacturers and followed up on Wednesday to announce support for third-party devices

Sony also announced three new noise cancellation models in its 1000x earbuds lineup: wireless WF-1000X earbuds that would directly compete with Apple's AirPods, behind-the-neck WI-1000X that Sony is targeting commuters with, and the WH-1000XM2 headphones.
The Sony WF-1000X earbuds has a 6mm driver, but the company promises dynamic sound nonetheless. Much like the AirPods, it also comes in a case, and taking them out of the case will automatically power on the earbuds and connect to the last device they were paired with. The case can hold up to 9 hours of usage.

On the other hand, the Sony WI-1000X tops that with vibration alerts for incoming calls, and up to 10 hours of battery life. "The hybrid driver system with BA and 9mm dynamic driver units brings optimal sound quality to your ears and with a multitude of other sound features such as High-Resolution Audio, LDAC, DSEE HX and S-Master HX," the company said.

The WH-1000XM2 headphones offer the "best noise cancelling technology" combined with unique Ambient Sound mode, Personal NC Optimizer, and Quick Attention mode in this headband style, the company said. They can run up to 40 hours on a single charge with an audio cable, or up to 30 hours when used wireless. To make things smoother, the headphones offer Quick Charging function to fuel 70 mins of battery life in just 10 minutes of charging.

Installing it will probably take you at least an hour, and you may experience some Blue screens along the way.
