Great sound for price but anc is just enough
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent sound for the price, comparable to the sony wh-1000xm4. The one thing worth noting though is the sound canceling is just ok for day to day use not meant to be used at a warehouse or any extremely loud environment. For some scale the wh-1000xm4 is a 9/10 and these are 3/10 in noise canceling when being used in a warehouse during peak operations

Posted .Hi Bungo, thank you for your detailed review and for sharing both your positive experiences and concerns. We're glad to hear you found the sound quality of the WH-ULT900N impressive, especially in comparison to the WH-1000XM4.
You’ve raised an important point about noise canceling performance. The WH-ULT900N is designed to deliver robust sound and effective noise canceling for daily environments like offices, public transit, or home use, but it does have different noise canceling hardware and processing compared to our flagship WH-1000XM4. The WH-1000XM4 features Sony’s industry-leading noise canceling technology, which is specifically engineered to handle more challenging environments, such as warehouses or other extremely loud locations.
While the WH-ULT900N provides solid everyday noise reduction, especially at its price point, its performance in highly intense noise environments will be less comprehensive than the WH-1000XM4. We appreciate your clear comparison—it’s feedback like this that helps future customers pick the model that best fits their needs, and helps us as we continue to refine our products.
If you have any other questions about features or want suggestions for maximizing performance in specific environments, feel free to ask.
Thank you again for being part of the Sony family!
Best regards,
Gus

Okay for the price
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve got ten headphones (two are buds) that said for $129 on sale these are fair value. Super light. Busy app. Hesvy bass. Muddy sound that EQ helps but not enough crisp highs for me. Comfortable. Nice case. Shortest charge cord ever. Could’ve paid another $70 for the xm4. I prefer my crusher evos and bose QC. About the same overall as beats studio pro but less comfy with more bass and less clarity. They also look bulky on head. Won’t return but would not buy a second pair.

Posted .Hi TeeheeMF,
We regret to hear you are having some audio issues with your ULT WEAR Headphones. Our ULT WEAR has a slider that you can use to adjust the length of the headband to get the best fit and for comfortable listening experience. Please note that if you put on the headset without adjusting the slider, the headset may not be positioned properly on your head, resulting in discomfort or a weak noise canceling effect. We do have good information on how to wear the headband headphones correctly so it is comfortable and reasons why your ears may hurt when putting on or wearing headphones. For your reference, you may check this helpful link:
https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/articles/00282845
By downloading the Sony Sound Connect app, it lets you adjust the equalizer and gives you different sound modes. This will give you more control over your headphones and their performance. You may also find different devices will perform better than others, as will different apps due to different types of audio compression and transmission. For more details, you may refer to this link: https://www.sony.com/electronics/support/wireless-headphones-bluetooth-headphones/wh-ult900n/articles/00286844
Despite your concerns, we're glad that you like most of the features of the unit. If you need further assistance regarding your product, you may send us an email at socialsupport@am.sony.com with the following details:

Good headphones for a great price!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great headphones! I have been a big fan of Sony headphones for a long time and have been using them for years. This one also did not disappoint. The Active Noise Cancellation is great, although sometimes in high wind or vibration environments, it could do a bit better. The price point is perfect!

Best Bass Ever!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These headphones have amazing quality. I upgraded from an old pair of Sony headphones I loved- and these made me happy I made the decision to do so. If you love strong bass in your audio, these are absolutely the headphones for you. They are super straightforward to use, and I have no issues getting them to connect even between multiple devices.

We’re glad to hear your ULT WEAR headphones are holding up well for you! We put a lot of focus into the build quality and matte finish of this series to ensure they feel as premium as they sound, especially when you're pushing that ULT button for the heavy bass.
It's great to know that after having them for a while, they still feel solid and high-quality. Thanks for being a part of the Sony family!

Great Headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price point I paid (145) it a great buy. The noise cancelling is top tier for its price range and the base boost is dope for my EDM playlist. You can even use the Sony EQ app and adjust the vocals for songs, at first the instruments were over powering the vocals but I changed It. Great purchase for a budgeting buyer

Posted .Thank you for sharing your fantastic review, TyreekB!
We are thrilled to hear that you found the WH-ULT900N headphones to be a great purchase at their price point, especially for a budgeting buyer.
It's rewarding to know that the noise-canceling is hitting "top tier" for you, and that the Bass Boost mode is "dope" for your EDM playlist! That's exactly what we designed the ULT POWER SOUND series for.
We also appreciate you highlighting the power of the Sony EQ app! We built that feature so users like you can customize the sound profile, and it’s great to hear you successfully tweaked the balance to prevent instruments from overpowering the vocals.
Thanks again for your strong recommendation and for choosing Sony!

But, what makes it different is the bass that blasts your ears eveytime you listen to music which makes us bass heads excited. These headphones are great for people who like clear bass and no muddyness.

We are absolutely delighted to hear how much you are loving your WH-ULT900N headphones! It's fantastic to know that you are experiencing great sound quality and that they are delivering such an extremely clear listening experience across your entire playlist.
Your appreciation for the ULT Mode is especially rewarding!

It's wonderful that your WH-ULT900N headphones have become your go-to companion, coming with you "everywhere I go."

Good for the price and features
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Buy with the expectations of something around $200 base and $100 discount. It is nice for what it is but pls do not compare to XM4 or XM5, be it sound quality wise and build quality wise. For instance, the bass can go a bit higher than XM4 or around the same level but the clarity is far inferior. The shell is less premium and feel more plasticy than its more expensive counterparts. Regardless, I think this is among the better choice if you want good wireless headphones for the $100-200 range

Better than my more expensive headphones
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The best noise canceling headphone ive ever had. Like the button where you can turn off noise canceling but still listen to audio. Only complaint is that theres no real instruction on all the features & how to use them. I figured things out by accident which prompted me to start playing around with them to discover features like volume control by swiping up or down on earpiece opposite side of the one with all the buttons. Or double tap to pause
