Kling 2.6 vs Sora 2 Pro
Kling 2.6 edges out Sora 2 Pro overall (Kling 2.6 60.0 vs Sora 2 Pro 50.0.) Kling 2.6 is one of the strongest options for human-led scenes, expressive acting, and cinematic shot composition with native audio support. It has strong cinematography sensibilities and is a solid pick for narrative clips and dialogue-forward workflows. It can have some big logical inconsistencies where things just fall apart, and struggles slightly with physics. Text is an extremely weak point and it couldn't really render text very well. Overall, it edges out Google's Veo 3.1. The main tradeoffs are in Logical inconsistencies, Physics accuracy, Readable text rendering, Text generation, where Sora 2 Pro tends to score better.

Prompt
Inside a gilded palace ballroom with tall mirrors and a marble floor, a gold crown sits on a red velvet cushion on a small round table in the foreground. A silver candlestick stands exactly to the right of the cushion. In the background, a crystal chandelier hangs centered above the room. At second 2 the chandelier sways gently left-to-right for exactly three seconds; at second 6 a gloved hand enters from the left and extinguishes only the rightmost candle on the candlestick. The crown and cushion must never move.”

Prompt Adherence
Prompt
Single continuous shot in a sci-fi hangar with glossy floors and strong backlight haze. Keep a parked spaceship on the left, a glowing door panel on the right wall, and a metal crate centered in the foreground. A female lead runs from the background toward the crate and pivots around it without touching it. A small drone swoops in from the right and scans her with a sweeping light beam as it passes overhead. She slides behind the crate for cover, then pops out and slaps the glowing door panel once. The door panel flashes brighter and she holds in a ready stance facing it. The crate must never move and the spaceship must remain stationary. No cuts.
