    Sony headphones are renowned for their exceptional sound quality, comfort, and advanced features. Models like the Sony WH-1000XM4 or WH-1000XM5 are particularly notable for their industry-leading noise cancellation, allowing users to enjoy music or podcasts without distractions. The sound profile is typically well-balanced, providing rich bass and clear highs. Additionally, features such as long battery life, intuitive touch controls, and integration with voice assistants enhance the user experience. While these headphones are on the pricier side, their performance justifies the investment for audiophiles and frequent travelers alike.

    These headphones are amazing for the price point. They are very comfortable around the ears. The sound quality and noise cancelling are great. The auto off function when you take them off is a battery saver. The app also lets you get deep into EQ customization for optimal sound for you. 10/10 would purchase again!

    First time buying headphones like this and I am very surprised with not only the build quality but also the sound it has, the bass in these are pretty will balanced with the rest of the audio. The audio pass through mode feels a bit lacking but maybe it's just a function that I'm still getting used to. The battery stays charged for a while even though that isn't my main way of using the headphones, I use the aux option most of the time, but still a massive bonus when I do use them wireless.

We appreciate your honest note on the audio pass-through mode, and as you use the headphones wirelessly more often, we hope you'll find the feature more useful. It's fantastic that the long battery life offers a huge bonus when you switch from your primary wired use!

    Starting by saying I'm not an audiophile or anything but the sound on these is great. I love that you can manually adjust the bass, treble, etc., but also that there are a bunch of presets for these for different listening experiences if you're not as experienced with this type of thing (like me). The noise cancelling is fine. It blocks out things like sounds from cars or buses really well but not super great for things like people talking but I guess I would need ear buds or much higher quality headphones for that. The ambient sound option is pretty great at amplifying outside noise if you're in a situation where you need to be able to hear your surroundings. It's also super convenient to have a button on the side to switch between noise cancelling and ambient noise. Overall they do what I need and are pretty comfortable to wear for long periods of time.

      Thank you for your review, MICHELLE! It is most rewarding to hear that you love the WH-ULT900N headphones and the great sound they deliver.

      We designed these headphones to provide a personalized listening experience, so it brings us great satisfaction to know you are enjoying both the manual EQ settings and the helpful presets. It's also wonderful to hear that you find the Ambient Sound mode to be effective and the dedicated button so convenient for switching between modes. We engineered our headphones to be comfortable for long periods of time, and we're so glad you've had a comfortable experience.

      We also appreciate your honest feedback regarding the noise cancelling. We understand your experience and want to assure you that our noise-cancelling technology is most effective at blocking out continuous, low-frequency sounds like those from cars and buses. While it can be more challenging to completely block out sudden or varied noises like human voices, we are always working to improve the effectiveness of our technology. Your feedback is valuable to us as we continue to innovate.

      Thanks again for choosing Sony and for sharing your valuable thoughts!

    Got these because my last sony headphones broke after almost 3 years. I had the predecessor headphone models, which I loved. It was a more affordable, and honestly really simillar to the XM series. Im really happy with these because they feel slightly lighter, and the noise cancelling is WAY better. I like the noise cancellation off feature so I can be more in tune with my surroundings. The bass is also a lot better from the last pair. Best Buy also carried out my order ASAP after I put the order in from the site.

    Makes the XM5s harder to justify

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After owning the XM5s for over a year I decided to pick these up as the XM5s severely lacked in bass performance. Despite the "cheaper" feel and build, they perform very well and at times, are on par with the XM5s when in ULT 1 mode and both EQs in flat profiles. It has all the main features Sony advertises for the XM5s with the added benefit of folding itself to save on space, something I dislike about the XM5s. If you're coming from nothing, purchase these as you get big features for a small price. If your main listening genres are bass heavy like EDM, hip-hop, rock, etc, I highly recommend them as they emphasize those notes more and make the song feel more energetic. I personally prefer more bass so these fit me perfectly. The XM5s do have clearer and brighter characteristics than the ULTs at times but that can be compensated by adjusting the EQ. Very comfortable, sleek, light (Weighs the same as XM5), and is feature-rich so you don't feel left out in options. ANC is technically not the same as XM5 but I personally didn't notice a big difference between the two. Also, many claim that the mic isn't as clear as the XM5s but I rarely use these headphones when calling. Overall solid headphone for those who want the music to hit.

    Bought these more for flying than anything but have been using them mowing the lawn and have been pleased with the sound. They fit good on my head don’t feel like they’ll fall off. I don’t really like the adaptive sound as it was cutting in and out, so I turned it off with the phone app. If you want to turn down the noise suppression, simply cover the right ear muff. I think these will work great on my upcoming flight. Would buy again

    These headphones are great. The ULT bass feature is nice for on the fly eq adjustment of music. The spatial 3D audio is also awesome. I’m using Tidal as the music source and it feels like I’m listening to some of my favorite songs for the first time again. The bass is powerful but with the ULT off the sound is still clear and the bass isn’t overwhelming. These are not the XM5s but they are half the cost and still sound great. The active noise canceling is also ver effective and works well even when not playing music. I’m very happy with the purchase.

    The ULT headset is very similar to Sony’s M4 and M5 headset. The ult has a built in ANC (active noise cancelling) function, with a tap of a button, the ult cancels all sound from all around you, to a ULT button that increases the bass drastically. This is a mid-range headset that is very budget friendly and comes with a carry case for it as well.

    Got these on sale and did the geek squad protection to total under $200! I’m a iphone - apple music user and set up was easy with the sony connect app. I usually use airpod pro 2s and my previous over ear headphones were crusher anc 2s. I like these alot! I use ult 2 and vocal EQ on app & they sound perfect for me. They are not loud headphones but loud enough where you don’t have to turn volume all the way up to enjoy your music. One word to describe these headphones would be chill! The overall sound is just chill. They have Avg ANC, and excellent real bass, I didn’t like the the artificial bass on anc 2. Vocals are is a little bit distorted and under instrumental but overal output sound is smooth for a enjoyable listening experience. I have not messed with custom eq because i’m fine with what the stock options changed so far. Worth it!

      Hi Jreviews!

      It sounds like you had a great experience with your WH-ULT900N headphones!

      It’s wonderful to hear that the setup was seamless with the Sony Connect app and that the sound quality meets your expectations, especially with the custom EQ settings you used. Your description of the headphones as having a "chill" sound is quite insightful, and it’s great to know that you appreciate the real bass provided by them. While you mentioned that the vocals are a bit distorted and under the instrumental, it's good to see that the overall output still makes for an enjoyable listening experience. It’s also helpful to note the average active noise cancellation and sufficient volume levels. Your feedback on how the stock EQ options work well for you without needing further customization is valuable for others considering these headphones.
