Sony consistently ranks near the top of the list of the best wireless headphones. Their new ULT WEAR cans came out earlier this year, and they’re already on sale. If you’ve been debating picking up a new set of cans, here are the pros and cons of the newest Sony model.
Quick take
Apple AirPods Max are fantastic over-the-ear wireless headphones, but the outlandish price is a stopping point for many. Sony ULT WEAR are noise-canceling wireless headphones with a comfy design, great sound, and a price that pleases.
Pros
- Built-in mic
- Full sound + ANC
- Excellent bass
- Comfortable
- Swivel fold design for travel and storage
- Multi-point connection
Cons
- Not the best choice for calls
- Only the off-white color is on sale
The best and worst in 60 seconds
These Sony wireless headphones have a sound profile that’s on par with all the leading cans. The ULT button lets you bump up the bass and truly get lost in the music.
The built-in microphone works OK-ish. It’s not great for calls, but it will suffice for most people.
We love the active noise canceling, full sound, and the price tag.
Are these wireless headphones the best choice for you?
If you switch between your phone, tablet, and computer during listening sessions, you’ll appreciate the Multi-point connection support that allows you to do so seamlessly and without missing a beat. If pumping up the bass is also your thing, you won’t be disappointed.
On the other hand, if you need to make and take calls on your headphones, you’ll probably want to give these a pass.
These award-winning wireless headphones are now $170 at Amazon
