    ADDITIONAL REVIEW NOTES:
    First off, these are $200 which is significantly cheaper than most flagship headphones, yet these compete in every aspect. Great ANC, Mics, comfort, app, and design
    But let’s start off with that… the design
    DESIGN
    Pretty simple and understated
    Black, Forest Gray, and White
    Comes with a hardshell case
    Simple aesthetic much like the old WH-1000XM3 headphones
    Very lightweight plastic design
    Appearance is a bit bulky for my liking
    Comfort is great! My ears definitely get warm in the fake leather, but not too bad, and the clamping force is nice and gentle. Deep cups and plush cushions
    Fit test - level 1 running = good, level 2 pushups = good, level 3 burpees = not secure enough
    WEIGHT COMPARISON WITH OTHER HEADPHONES
    Now like I said, these are $200 and for some reason, the $200 pricepoint is wildly competitive this year. I’m working on a best headphones under $200 this year so get subscribed if you want to see a comparison between these, the Beats Solo, Sennheiser Accentum Plus, Soundcore, and others.

    Mega bass. The bass eclipses a lot. They sound dark and even dull. Instruments such as a snare sound less crisp. The bass is big and boomy.
    And that’s just the regular mode. Let’s talk about the ULT button
    But if your favorite song is Dazed and Confused or Yonkers or something and you just really want the bassline to rattle your skull, these are your headphones.
    APP TOUR
    FEATURES
    Multipoint = yes
    Battery is rated for 30 hrs or 50 w/o ANC
    Auto play/pause
    Missing: USB audio

      How about the XB910N? I think this will be interesting since there are a lot of similarities, like the extra bass. Cheers!

    It's incredibly important to mention that the ULT button settings are ALL USER DEFINED. Nobody should make the mistake of assuming that "ULT2 is really overwhelming bass!" It's actually... whatever you set ULT2 to be. By default, yes, out of the box, it is Clear Bass +10. But if you want it to be +6, it can be. If you want it to be +4, it can be. If you want it to be +1, it can be. The button is essentially a physical way of toggling between the Off/ULT1/ULT2 three customizable presets, without needing to always go into the app to change it. You're not stuck with ULT1 and ULT2 as two fixed bass boost options, with ULT2 being overly excessive. That's not accurate (but it's how virtually every review I've seen on UA-cam tends to describe it). You can customize each of them, and it's probably the most important feature of this Sony model. Anyone thinking of getting these, understand how customizable the bass presets for the ULT button are. You'd have to always be going into the app on XM4 or XM5 to adjust the bass.

      can the ULT button be customised for other modes as well, or just the bass alone?

  • @euphrentic
    @euphrentic 16 днів тому +23

    I've always wanted to know what GENRE of music these reviewers listen to. If it's Rock, classical, acoustic etc, they won't appreciate lots of Bass. If it's Pop, R&B, Hip Hop or anything electronic, bass you can feel is what many buyers are after.

    • @whetan
      @whetan 15 днів тому

      I always ask this same thing, it'd help to better inform viewers for sure. But I think for reviewers, they review enough headphones to know if the bass is bloated or not even if they listen to more bassy music. If you like bassier genres of music there's a big difference between bloated bass and clean bass

    • @MML66
      @MML66 13 днів тому +1

      Basically, the company does not force anyone. It is dedicated to BASS heads. It will oblige those who do not like them to buy the XM4 or XM5.

  • @Brian-tk5vt
    @Brian-tk5vt 15 днів тому +1

    I'd be curious how they compare with the wh-1000xm4. I had compared the mx4 and mx5 and didn't notice a significant difference so I never upgraded. I do love bass though but feel like the 1000xm models already have great bass.

    Hi, i think it would be interesting to compare this ULT wear with Skullcandy crusher 2 anc, i've got both and they are very pleasant for watch movies and listen sort of music...thanks for your test 🙏

  • @FilmingAustralia1623
    @FilmingAustralia1623 13 днів тому +2

    I have the ULT WEAR paird with my Sony Xperia 5 iii and eq set as close to the WH-1000XM5 as possible with ULT 1 Clear Bass 6 and they sound amazing. The phone does come with 360 audio free and ive been able to watch movies that sound like your at the cinema i can say the 360 audio i find is most of the time better on id say using them with a Sony device is is much better sounding than other brands.

  • @divyanshusethia5977

      Yep. I sat down to film a b-roll shot there and that was the book that happened to be next to me. Fun fact though - I did actually learn banjo last year.

    So I know the Beats Studio Pro are $350 MSRP, but they are almost always on sale for sub $200. Can you throw that into the mix? Also, the one thing I care about above all else is long term comfort. I bought some Anker headphones a while back that I had to donate to a friend because they felt like they were squeezing my head to a pulp.

  • @rokiedecentra9656
    @rokiedecentra9656 16 днів тому +2

    are they trying to be the Next Skullcandy? I hope everyone tries the monstrosity, the Skull candy Crushers were - they literally had separate powered drivers to only and only produce bass, and they would vibrate on your head. They took extra bass and turned it up to an 11. Now my audio preference is dead flat with my Hifiman headphones but the skullcandys were something else

      I own senheiser momentun 4 and in my case they sound better when wireless where you can use the equalizer. When used with cable they sound too flat and a bit harsh in general

  • @princessmitena7771

    Should I buy these headphones if I hate bass? I love the design of these headphones, they are fordable and have much better ANC than wh-ch720 but will I be able to turn all the bass off? I can't affort xm4 or xm5 and don't like 720 that much either...

    • @KazukiHizushi

    I just bought them and returned them.. all these reviews make it seem like they have big deep bass.. but.. it’s more like middleweight bass rather than heavyweight.. sad to say but my crusher evos had better bass.. and went louder

    • @nanaasante2175
      @nanaasante2175 13 днів тому +1

      I have both and the XM5s sound wayyyyyy better because of the better soundstage and instrument separation. Also, you need to EQ the Ult wear to sound good else its not a match for the XM5

      That’s why i only use wired headphones lol. Any pair of wired headphones, whether it be an ATH-M50x or a DT770 Pro or a Sennheiser HD569 pair of headphones is a MUCH better purchase decision than any pair of muddy boomy and bassy Sony headphones, ESPECIALLY when talking about sound quality. Those 3 headphones I mentioned are MUCH more reliable and natural.
