Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have had this for about a week and really enjoying all the options for sound choices. In fact, I am still in the exploring stage. Being a musician I tend to be a little more critical and I look for clarity, tone and usability. So in using the Phones, one has to take into account, especially when it comes to music, different genres are mixed in different ways, therefore, when using ULT bass option you have to consider that you will definitely have different results when it comes to how the bass is mixed in the studio for that genre. I found with some styles of music I did not find ULT very useful. Other styles had very good results. The adaptive sound control worked pretty decently when sitting or Moving around. The EQ has 9 choices, I only noticed subtle differences mostly tonal changes and bass enhancements or up front vocals. Again very minor changes. For 360 reality audio to work, you will need a subscription. You can also set custom EQ along with multiple other choices. One EQ in particular “Excited” almost presents as a live sound, a lot of Enhancement involved. I do like having control for switching tracks within the app being connected to Spotify (My Choice). Sony has packed these headphones with a lot of options for the listener to help you Experience the music as the artist intended. I also feel the noise cancelling worked very well. There is also DSEE you can set to auto for upscale. I found the ear pads very comfortable. This is great especially if you happen to wear glasses. Other phones became burdensome and Fatigued my ears. Also helps having a good balance of mostly a Plastic housing along with metal where needed. I also liked the pause feature when removing the headphones and auto play when phones were placed back on my head. No need To press any buttons to restart a song. This is a perfect match for a price and feature packed headphone to give you something decent without breaking the bank.

These headphones are amazing. I love the noise canceling. It could connect pretty much to any device you own whether it’s wired or wireless. Sony never disappoints.

I switched from sennheiser momentum 4 to these bc the always on ANC was causing ear problems…you literally can’t disable ANC on sennheiser or bose headphones, only multiple levels of ANC or transparency…I am stunned by how good these sony’s sound, not as good as the sennheiser’s but very close…plus the ear cups have the most room I’ve found to get my whole ear to fit…and disabling ANC is easy…THESE SHOULD BE ON EVERY LIST!!!

These are EASILY the best pair of headphones I've ever had. It's a little tedious to set up the sony account and everything but DEFINITELY worth it gor the sturdiness, the sound quality, and all the cool settings you're able to play around with. They're also super comfy, I highly reccomend!!

Sturdy, well-constructed and with great sound. I think the ULT Wear is a suitable alternative for anyone looking for Sony’s quality ANC on a budget. The bass and the sleek shade of green are a cherry on top for me.

I love these headphones! I was weary because Sony was never on my list of headphones to try. I tend to gravitate towards Apple, Beats, or Bose. I tried on Apple Airpod Max and the headband was too big so i returned them. Same thing for the Bose Quiet Comfort— I couldnt look down without either of them sliding off. For reference, my head is smaller. I tried these in store and looked up down and around mimicking different exercises where my headphones would potentially fall out, and these, in comparison to others, stayed snug and secure! Sound quality is comparable to Bose and Apple products— in my opinion!

Worth the purchase. My husband and I loves everything about it. From the sound quality and how lightweight it is

They sound great! Good looking cans! Very comfortable not sure about the durability I wouldn’t wear them in the rain. I don’t think they’re dustproof but they sure sound great. They actually sound better than my AirPods 2.

Got these for my 13 year old daughter. She loves them says they are very comfortable.

one of the best headphones I've ever bought. The price tag is a bit steep but it's a worthy investment. Highly recommend if you're a basshead

Amazing product. the battery life is great. They do a great job canceling out noise.

I’ve had these for 2 months and I love them ! So comfortable to wear and the sound is amazing

Love these headphones especially with the noise canceling makes the base ssound better

Good value, great sound. Noise cancellation is spot on.

Glad I picked these up. For the price the headphones offer really great sound quality. The noise cancellation really helps in certain situations where you want to drown out the noise outside and focus in on the music.

Excellent headphones. Very silent noise cancelling, and good bass.

Pretty dope bass and clean sound. I have the ULT family of speakers

Great product with great price my husband is really happy

I purchased these after cross shopping them with the Bose QC45 and chose this because I felt the sound quality was just a little bit better and the extra features with the touch pad interested me. My primary use case for these was for cross country flights, and they did well at this task. That is until about 2 months after buying these when the swivel hinge on the left ear cup fell apart while I was taking the headphones off. I have always stored these in their case and have never dropped or abused them, so to see them break like this was a surprise. I figured there must be a defect in the hinge. I contacted customer support from Sony and was promptly told the warranty does not cover any physical damage whatsoever. I know it sounds like it would just me taking my word on this being a defect but a quick google search for "Sony Headphones Swivel Hinge" will reveal this is a common issue on all of their headphones, and the fact they both have not fixed a bad design and also refuse to stand behind their product is telling. So if you want great sounding headphones that need to be replaced or repaired every 2 months, this is a great choice. I personally will just get the Bose QC45 and not look back.

I'm not a big fan of these headphones. I've owned other higher end (meaning more expensive) Sony noise cancelling headphones and these just can't compare to those, even taking into account the lower price point. First, somehow these feel uncomfortable to wear for an extended period of time. I'm not sure why, but I definitely start suffering from ear fatigue much sooner than I have with other headphones. Next, the sound. The selling point for these is the extra bass you can apply, either through the equalizer within the app and / or via a dedicated 'ULT' button on the left side. Problem is that my ears couldn't tell much difference when toggling the ULT button on and off repeatedly. Maybe I'm just not as in tune to lower frequencies, I'm not sure. But, I thought the bass would be much more prominent. Lastly, the app. So I know that the app is not necessary to use the headphones - you just pair them with your device and get listening. But, Sony touts the app as unlocking so many great features that you are almost forced to use it, at least once. Unfortunately, the app is a hot mess - the GUI is pretty ugly, the navigation is slow and generally confusing. Considering Sony has been using an app for many years to truly achieve the potential of whatever headphones you have, you would think they would have put much more effort into it to make it beautiful, user friendly and truly functional. Regardless, there are reasons other than the app that I outlined above that should give you pause about buying these. Last but not least, the headphones came with a code to use on Amazon Music Unlimited to get 4 free months of the paid streaming service. Unfortunately, the code didn't work.
