Great Sound & ANC. Both hinges broke.
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great bass, Great sound, Fantastic Active Noise Canceling. I use them for gaming and ANC works even when wired, which is a huge plus. I can't hear anything. With all that being said, after 3 months, both hinges cracked and broke. The hollow plastic design is light and comfortable, but completely flawed. Super disappointed.

Easy to turn up the volume with hands. Noise canceling vs non noise canceling is awesome feature. Incredible headset. More comfortable than the apply headset.

Essential Flight Companion

This Sony-ULT WEAR is so very comfortable, and the contrast of having them on versus taking them off is dramatic! I won't travel without them. They are an essential flight companion!

Best Headphones
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the amount that I paid for them these are amazing. Has long lasting charge, amazing audio, comfortable, and they are stylish. You would think that for around 100 they would be decent but these could honestly compete against $500 headphones.

Head rattling bass
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought these as a replacement of my Sony H.ear on 2 and they did not disappoint. Sound is very good and balanced when ULT (the bass mode) is turned off and head rattling when ULT is turned on. There are 2 levels of ULT, the first one being a sweet spot and the second one being an overly exaggerated bass everywhere, listening to non-bassy music on ULT 2 makes you hear bass that you didn't even know was there to begin with (which is kinda nice but can be too much some times). Noise cancelling is very good at all music volume levels and the ambient sound mode is even better assuming you don't go past 50%. The app is very nice and let's you mess with the equalizer to find the perfect sound for you and the carrying case is a nice plus. The only downside is the build quality. The plastic they used feels too cheap for headphones of this price (my previous Sony pair feels WAY better despite being older by more than a couple years and costing the same when they came out), they don't feel like they are going to break that easily, however, for the price, they could have done a way better job; the build quality is basically on par with any $50 headphones.

Great headphones for calming overstimulation
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As someone who gets overstimulated easily, I have found that theses headphones work wonderfully. There great noise canceling helps me clam down and stay focused. They also have a little weighted which also helps with claiming.

Awesome pair of over ear headphones!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These head phones are amazing! They make listening to music a treat and I hear things in songs that I never heard before with my airpods 3. I also use them for watching anime and I really enjoy it. Music, sound effects, and voices are all crisp. The bass booms when there are scenes with explosions and I love it. I haven't had to charge these yet and I got them on March 27. Almost one month ago. These headphones rock and I highly recommend them!

I am a Sony fanboy
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using the Sony MX5 headphones for two years and have been content with their performance. However, I decided to make a change and switch to the ult headphones in search of something more comfortable without compromising on the bass. My experience with the ult headphones has been exceptional, and I have found them to be even more comfortable than the MX-5s. Additionally, I mentioned that the ult headphones deliver a similar sound to the MX-5s but with an added emphasis on the bass, which I love. The bass response on the ult headphones is more pronounced and punchy, which adds to the overall listening experience. Based on my statement, it is evident that the ult headphones are an excellent choice for anyone who values both comfort and bass equally and is looking to elevate their listening experience.

10/10
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.10/10 recommend. Awesome noise cancellation, sound and battery life. I’ve had these for a few months. Great for lifting. The only annoying thing is that the noise canceling will occasionally/randomly switch off as you walk around. I think it’s just a setting I have to change but there’s a button to toggle between noise canceling as well so it’s not a hassle.

||Posted .

Not sleek/stylish on my head, good tech for price.
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound and base. Microphone was a little lacking for work calls. My wife didn’t like the look of them, a little bulky the way they sit on your ears. Try it out!

Posted .HI JustinT,
We appreciate you letting us know about the microphone clarity on your ULT WEAR headphones for work calls. To improve this, please check your computer's audio settings to make sure the headset is selected as the "Headset (Hands-Free)" device for your microphone input, which uses the voice-optimized profile. We recognize that the design may look bulkier, as it is engineered to maximize comfort and deliver powerful bass.
Thanks for choosing Sony.
Best regards, Eliab

Terrific sound and voice.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The headphones are amazing. I got them for remote work and virtual meetings, but they’re so comfortable that I also use them for gaming and listening to music. The ability to decide on the bass is great, but the control over noise reduction is outstanding! If you want to hear people around you talking, you can turn it off and hear them just as clearly as if you weren’t wearing the headphones. Don’t want to hear people around you, turn the noise reduction on and you’ll be in your own world of music. As for the microphone, people can hear me more clearly than with other headsets with a retractable mic. The battery lasts multiple days of 8 hour use on a single charge, and when it goes low… it literally charges nearly halfway on 5 minutes.

Bass Head Paradise
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you love bass and I mean really love bass, these are the heaphones for you. These rival the skull candy crushers. If you are looking for a rich sound profile like the M5 headphones you will not get that from these. The ANC is comparable to the M5s. For the price I don't think you can find a set of cans with more bang for the buck.

Absolute Banger headphones
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones are a worthy addition and pleasant upgrade in the XB lineup of products. I had the XB900Ns for 3 years, and i loved them a lot but the one side of the headband snapped when i went on a trip in March. I had purchased them for an absolute bargain (used) back in ‘21 but one glaring fault with them was the lackluster Noise Cancellation on them. These ULT wears do the job; their lightweight, i love the aesthetic personally, and the noise cancellation is actually noise CANCELLATION. It actually goes toe to toe with my sister’s XM5s, and im a basshead so the extra kick in the bass is a HUGE plus for me. Highly recommend
