My favorite BT speaker I use for working out started getting a little rattle so I used that as an excuse to start looking for a replacement instead of digging to see what the issue was. That speaker sounded so nice with deep rumbling base, clear mids and highs. It was perfect. First impression when I opened the box was, "Man, this Ult Field 3 is gonna be weak!" The puny speaker wasn't gonna be able to put out the sound I wanted at least replicate with my other speaker. So, I hook it up to my tablet, launched YT Music, and ... Whoa! I had to turn the volume down. How the heck is this little speaker pushing more sound than my bigger speaker? Not only was it louder, but it seemed like the sound surrounds you more than my other speaker. Bass? Heck yes it pushes some very good, deep, clean base. It can't hit the low rumble like a full subwoofer could, but the woofer and ports work to put out bass that matched my speaker with a larger woofer that what the Ult Field 3 has. I haven't tried Ult1 Mode (which sounds like old school Sony Mega-Bass) because the bass is so clean and clear in normal mode that I don't think I'll need it. So far I'm really diggin this speaker and have decided to retire my old baby. Ult Field 3 is now my chosen workout speaker. Now to find a way to repurpose the old speaker.

I have owned quite a few bluetooth speakers by Sony over the years and usually they always made me happy but, unfortunately, this ULT Field 3 speaker does not. The aesthetics are good. It has a sleek and simple look with the buttons on the top. The build quality feels very good and the removeable strap is great for when I am on the go. I have the white color and it looks great. The charging port is located on the back behind a rubber door. It uses a simple USB type C connector for charging. The battery life is pretty good. Lasts quite a while, even when using at higher volumes a bit. The setup was pretty simple, I just downloaded the app and then connected the speaker to my phone. These good things are all things I expected and always enjoyed about Sony bluetooth speakers. Now, the sound. The sound is honestly not great. I feel that it lacks clarity and definition. When using the equalizer in the app, I am able to adjust the highs and mid range easily but the bass just lacks a lot. I used the bass boost or ULT feature and it just made it sound terrible. The bass was muddy and overly boosted. It drowned out the highs and mid range. With and without the EQ and ULT sound enhancements, it just sounded bad at mid to high volumes. I am very disappointed with this speaker. For something that is at the $199.99 price point, this should sound so much better. Overall, I think there is much better for the same price.

I just purchased this and i’m glad I did. I needed a replacement for my old JBL speaker and I thought I would try Sony. The option to increase base at the touch of a button is fantastic. The sound is excellent. Much better than my old speaker. I deliver mail and I have the speaker blasting. I get some curious looks from my customers but it’s all good. I like it!!

This speaker is GREAT, love the sound, bass and definitely the quality of this Sony product.

This is a mighty little speaker its loud and the subwoofer sounds great.

Very good, simple speaker. Great for my needs. Thumbs up!

Returned for another Sony model. It was fine when I had it.
