Great Alt/ metal/ rock sound great for the price
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Posted .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.

Love these :)
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love these headphones! I alternate between these and the link buds s. The sound is similar when you adjust the controls (I didn't like the ult mode or whatever it's called). I like how the sound feels like it's around you, similar to surround sound. When I wear hoops my ears get sore faster so I don't recommend wearing big earrings with these. You don't really feel pain when you're wearing them but when you take them off you can feel a little soreness but that's normal for over the ear headphones. I also love this color lately and it matches my backpack for college.

Faulty headphones and even worse customer support
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.DO NOT BUY!!! I really wish I had read the low-star reviews of this headphones before purchasing. I purchased the UltWear headphones after my previous pair of Sony WH-XB910N headphones stopped working after around a year and a half of use. I had the Best Buy warranty purchased for the WH-XB910N headphones and assumed it would be a simple process to get my new pair. How wrong I was. Sony (very conveniently I might add) discontinued the WH-XB910N headphones, so getting a replacement pair was not an option. Instead, I had to pay the difference out of pocket between the original price of the WH-XB910Ns and the UltWear headphones. I figured the increase in price I had to pay would be worth it as I would be receiving higher quality headphones that would last longer than their previous generation (How wrong I was again). Almost every negative review for the ULTWear headphones on this page mentions the same flaw, the swivel hinge on the ear cups being faulty. Similar to other reviews, the headphones were well taken care of and have barely seen usage since their purchase, however the swivel hinge snapped all the same (Look at my photo and compare it to the others, all the headphones have snapped in the exact same place). This has been mentioned by countless other reviewers, yet Sony has clearly decided to avoid the issue in lieu of selling more defective products. After spending hours on the phone with both Best Buy customer support and Sony support, they both assured me that neither were culpable in covering the product and the costs of repair would fall on me. Utterly disappointing interactions with both companies who could have done even the slightest act to reestablish good faith. Its a shame too because I really recommended these headphones and the previous pair to literally everyone I know. I'll have no problem sharing the news now that Sony headphones and their products in general are not even worth the box they are packaged in. Stick to another retailer, buy Bose and avoid the mess of ever dealing with either of these businesses.

Premium quality for a solid price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Really happy with this pair of headphones. I originally bought them to use while I DJ to hear cued tracks but I haven't tested it out for that yet. However, I use them for work to block out sound and since I work from home they really help me stay focused. Audio sounds good. I don't use the ULT button much to boost the bass because it already sounds pretty good. For the casual music person, these are great, especially because I got them on sale.

Posted .Hi Noel,
Thank you for sharing your experience with your ULT WEAR headphones!
We're happy to hear how much you're enjoying them. It sounds like they've become a fantastic tool for your work-from-home setup, helping you block out sound and stay focused—that's a huge win! It's great that the audio quality is meeting your expectations, even without frequently engaging the ULT bass boost feature. For the casual listener, these are indeed a great blend of sound and value, especially when you catch them on sale!
Thanks for choosing Sony!
Best, Jenn.

Medium quality headphones
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm a big fan of SONY headphones, these are okay. The sound quality is not that bad, you need to use the app equalizer to find the best sound. The only down side is the quality of these headphones, these feel to cheap for the price. I feel they will brake too easily if you are not to careful.
