Posted .Hi ChrisN,
Thanks for your feedback on the ULT WEAR headphones. We're happy to hear that you're enjoying the sound quality.
We're sorry to hear that the noise-canceling feature is causing you to feel nauseous. This can sometimes happen with active noise-canceling technology, as the pressure changes can affect some users. We recommend trying a few things to see if it helps: Take short breaks when using the noise-canceling feature, ensure you have the best possible fit with the headphones and try adjusting a hearing profile through the Sony | Sound Connect app.
If the issue persists, please feel free to reach out to our support team directly. We are always here to help and ensure you have the best possible experience with our products. Here's the link: https://us.esupport.sony.com/support/s/support-contact?language=en_US&category=headphones
Thanks for choosing Sony!
Sincerely,

Posted .Hi Manofsteel25, thanks so much for your honest feedback! We're glad to hear you're enjoying the Sony - ULT WEAR headphones overall, but we're sorry to hear that the sound skips sometimes when listening to music. We understand that can be frustrating. Here are some troubleshooting steps that can help you solve the problem:
1- Set the the headphones to "Priority on stable connection" by using the Sony Headphones Connect app
2- If you are enjoying music with your smartphone, the situation may be improved by closing unnecessary apps or restarting your smartphone. If you are enjoying music with your computer, close unnecessary applications or windows and restart the computer
3- Turn off [Service Link] on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app. This may reduce the amount of audio dropout.
4- Turn off the Adaptive Sound Control setting to avoid momentarily pauses that are produced by the noise cancelling turning on or off.
5- Certain places may cause disruption in the Bluetooth connection, avoid wearing the headset in crowded places where other wireless communications can cause interference.
6- Reset the headset. You can follow the instructions through the link below:

Tight around my ears
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I enjoyed the sound, but it was a bit tight on my ears to a point that I could only wear it for a sometime before I needed to take them off. I returned it for this reason.

Posted .Hi gsr69, Thanks for taking the time to share your experience on the Sony ULT WEAR Wireless headphones. While we're glad to hear that you enjoyed the sound quality, we're sad to hear that you feel discomfort when wearing them for a period of time. Adjusting the headband and the earpads properly could have help reduce discomfort while wearing the headphones. We hope that you'd still consider our other models in your next purchase.

Sony Ult Wear
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have pretty good sound coming out of them. However, the negatives outweigh any of the positives these headphones have to offer. The nose cancellation feature fluctuates from on to off (even with the app open). Ear fatigue becomes noticeable after 20 to 30 minutes of wearing these headphones. I constantly find myself repositioning these headphones on my head due to how uncomfortable they start to feel around my ears which is very annoying. I don’t recommend buying these Sony Headphones for over 200 hundred dollars…
No, I would not recommend this to a friendBrand response from SonyListens
Posted .Hi JustinK,
We're glad that you like the sound quality of the ULT WEAR headphones. It's unfortunate that you are not satisfied with the noise canceling function and comfort of the headphones. For optimum performance, make sure that the software version of the headphones is up-to-date (via the Sony Headphones Connect app).
The noise canceling function is effective in low frequency ranges such as airplanes, trains, offices, near air-conditioning, and is not as effective for higher frequencies, such as human voices. When the Adaptive Sound Control on the “Sony | Headphones Connect” app is turned on, the wearer’s actions, like walking or running, are detected. The noise canceling function is automatically adjusted and the Ambient Sound Mode may be activated according to these actions. To make the most of the noise canceling function, turn off the Adaptive Sound Control, and try to turn on the noise canceling function manually when you need it.
For optimum fit and comfort, make sure that you are wearing the headset properly and adjust the slider depending on your head shape. You may find this link helpful:

Maybe get something else
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not my favorite headphones although they are very cute. They constantly disconnect. You need to download an app to use them and need to add all the devices you want to connect in the app only for them to disconnect or not connect at all. I suck at returning things but I really should have.

Posted .Hi MJones,
Thank you for sharing your feedback, and we sincerely apologize that your experience with the Sony ULT WEAR headphones has been disappointing, particularly regarding the connectivity issues. We understand how frustrating constant disconnections can be when you're trying to enjoy your music.
We appreciate you giving us a chance, and we want to help you resolve these connection problems immediately. We have a few key troubleshooting steps that often fix these types of dropout issues:
1. Firmware Update: Please ensure your headphones are updated to the latest firmware using the Sony Headphones Connect App. Updates frequently include critical stability and connection improvements.
2. Stable Connection Priority: In the Sony Headphones Connect App set the headset to “Priority on stable connection”. This setting can reduce audio and Bluetooth dropouts, prioritizing reliability over the highest audio bitrate.
3. Avoid Interference: Try to avoid using the headphones in areas with heavy wireless interference, such as near microwave ovens, crowded trains, or when surrounded by multiple wireless communication audio devices.
If these steps do not resolve the constant disconnection issues, please reach out to our customer support team directly. We would be happy to work with you to troubleshoot the issue further or explore a solution.

great balance of design, features, sound, price
|Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The new Sony ULT WEAR headphones are crazy good. Easily my new favorite set of headphones. I’ve owned a few pairs of high-end headphones. They were all good, but none of them were quite what I had hoped for. Finally…someone put together all the things that matter to me. I’m rocking Hoobastank as I write this review. The sound on this headset is incredible. The day they arrived, my 17 year old son got home before me and hooked them up to his phone before I had a chance to listen to them. He was wearing them what I walked in and his first comment was “These are the best out of the box headphones I’ve ever seen. They are so clear and the bass is amazing”. I think he summed it up really well. They sound incredible right out of the box. Add in the App and you get a fully customizable listening experience. While you have the option to create custom EQ settings, the presets are pretty great. I was able to find a preset that, when paired with the new ULT bass feature, is everything I’ve been looking for. I don’t know what else to say. They sound fantastic. The noise canceling is great. Easily cuts out background noise for an immersive listening experience. The ULT Bass settings are crazy. I’m not sure how Sony got that much bass into this package but it’s very impressive. I have it running on the first boost setting for normal listening. It’s too much for me to listen on level 2 all the time but having that extra level when a real banger comes on is awesome. When paired with the right EQ settings, this is easily the best overall sound quality I’ve owned. I can push them to distortion depending on the song type, EQ setting, ULT Bass setting, and volume, but to be honest, the only way you will really distort these is if you do it on purpose. An audiophile would never push all those limits at once. The touch sensor side of the right muff is really cool. I’ve always been frustrated by finding the buttons on a headset while on the move. No more. The whole side of the right muff is touch sensitive. Just tap it twice to pause, play, answer, hang up. Swipe up/down for volume control, and forward back to repeat/skip. Super easy…not more trying to find a tiny button. Oh, and if you cup your hand over the right muff, it will turn the volume down, turn off noise canceling, and give you immediate access to ambient sound so you can hear another person or your environment. When you remove your hand, it goes right back to where it was. I LOVE this feature. Noise cancelling and BASS setting buttons are on the left muff, but they aren’t hard to find as they are large enough and different shapes. Comfort is excellent. My biggest complaint with most high-end headphones is that they are HUGE and HEAVY. These are neither. They hit the sweet spot between size and weight. Some people will open them up and complain about how they feel cheap because of the plastic. I’m 100% fine with that because it makes them very comfortable and lightweight. The muffs are just big enough to get a good seal around my ear without swallowing my entire head. Love it. Battery life is outstanding. I can listen all day, and when they do run down, I can get a couple of hours of listening in a matter of minutes. Sony advertises 30 hours with noise cancellation on, and up to 50 without noise cancellation. I’ve only run them completely down once, and that was on purpose just to see if they recharge to 90 minutes of playtime with a 3-minute charge. They do. Simply put, I love these headphones. They aren’t cheap, but they also aren’t anywhere near the most expensive things around. They are an excellent balance of design, features, sound quality and price point.
