    Loud, clear, with punchy bass and different modes to match the genre you’re currently listening to. App has some fun, gimmicky but overal useless feature. Just wish it had a microphone for calls

    The Sony ULT 5 shines with its light show, AUX port, and great battery (~20hrs playtime), but that’s about it. At full blast, it’s loud, but it doesn’t deliver the bass thump or vocal clarity of the JBL Xtreme 4. Biggest turnoff: the Sony speaker app. It feels archaic and regularly crashes or freezes when adjusting the EQ. Even pairing and light control in the app is sluggish and buggy. Launched at $329, the ULT 5 didn’t cut it. But at its current ~$200 price point, it’s finally competitive. No other speaker balances lights, durability, connectivity, and sound for that money. If Sony improves their app, this would be a strong recommendation. But even then now at its $200 price point I still highly recommend this.

      Hello Arvnd,

      Thank you for this incredibly detailed and thoughtful review of the ULT FIELD 5! We truly appreciate you highlighting the strengths like the light show, AUX port, and impressive battery life.

      Your candid feedback on the bass thump, vocal clarity compared to competitors, and especially the app experience is invaluable. We understand your frustration with the app's performance, and please know that our development team is constantly working on improvements and updates based on user feedback like yours.

      We're glad to hear that at its current price, you find it to be a strong recommendation and a competitive option.

      Hi allanyangfox,

      We're glad you're enjoying the ULT FIELD 5 speaker, and we understand your frustration with the music stopping for notifications. This is typically caused by your phone's settings. To resolve it, check your phone's sound settings to see if you can disable notification sounds from playing over Bluetooth. Also, if a second device is connected, a notification on that device could be the cause.

      Thanks for choosing Sony.
