Estimate from the version's published specs and reviews, 0-5; scores are only comparable within one criteria year. Scored as launched (Sora 2 in the Sora app, 30 Sep 2025): clips of 10 s (ZDNET, PCMag; raised to 15 s and 25 s for Pro in October), 720p because OpenAI's sora-2 model page lists only 720x1280/1280x720 (the app's own pixel size was not published in any opened source; Sora 2 Pro's higher quality is scored on the API pin), native dialogue, ambience and effects, text or image input plus cameos (a recorded face and voice) and remixing, hence 3.5. Speed null: PCMag says 'about a minute or two' at an unstated resolution. Realism 4: Verge, PCMag, ZDNET and Unite.AI praise it with caveats on distortion and audio; Unite.AI carries affiliate links.[1]
Some of the clips were generated live as we watched, and they were terrifyingly realistic — no more six-fingered hands (that I could see, at least).
In short, Sora 2's AI audio and video quality can be quite good. “Can” is the operative word, though, as it’s easy to encounter distortion and errors in your videos.
You can add audio to your video with both sound effects and dialog that sync up with people speaking.
Sora 2 delivers fast, realistic short clips with accurate physics and clean audio synchronization.

La première entrée est toujours la source de l’épingle.

TechCrunch (30 Sep 2025, 18:28 UTC), Tom's Guide (30 Sep) and The Verge[2] (1 Oct) report the announcement on Tuesday 30 September 2025; Wikipedia[6] says Sora 2 was unveiled with the iOS app that day. Some outlets describe the app as reaching users the next day.
Hayden Field's briefing report: OpenAI staff called Sora a possible 'ChatGPT moment for video', claimed a 'step function change' in physics, the app is invite-only with four friend invites, and clips generated live were 'terrifyingly realistic'.[1]
Launch-day explainer: invite-first rollout, then Sora 1 power users and ChatGPT Pro, Plus and Team; iOS app next day in the US and Canada; synced voices and sound effects; API and Sora 2 Pro 'coming soon'.[1]
PCMag's test: audio and video quality 'can be quite good' but distortions are easy to hit; cameos work well; Pro users get 25-second storyboard videos versus 15 seconds for others after the October update.
Reports that the Sora web and app version goes dark on 26 April 2026 and the API follows on 24 September 2026, with Sora continuing only as world-model research.[1]
