Sony ULT Wear and WH-1000XM5 Reviewed & Compared by an AUDIO ENGINEER
The Sony ULT Wear is a new pair of wireless Bluetooth headphones by Sony. It doesn't replace the Sony WH-1000XM5 but is a more affordable option with great ANC, Transparency, mics, and tons of bass. In this review, I compare the Sony WH-ULT900N and WH-1000XM5, provide objective audio tests, and compare the ANC, Transparency, Mics, and Sound from the perspective and experience of an Audio Engineer.

What Codec were you using to test?
My lord, your reviews of headphones are the absolute gold standard, nobody comes anywhere close! Thank you!
Much appreciated! Please share with others. 😊
@@ThisIsTechTodayyou know I am! Keep up the great work! BTW, I am a HUGE fan of the Bose Soundwear (been using mine daily for 6 years!) Has there been anything interesting in this segment of “wearable speakers”; would be really interested in knowing what’s out now and if it is any good. Thanks!
@@Doug-mu2ev I'd certainly like to expand to more audio products. I'm trying to keep up with headphones and earbuds right now, amongst other content, so I'm trying different workflows and formats to see how I can streamline videos and make more of them so I can expand. Believe it or not, this video is a different format than in the past, and if it seems to do well, I think I'll be able to increase output a little bit more. We'll see :)
@@ThisIsTechTodayI noticed the new format and it is fantastic (bringing the viewer into the evaluation using binaural is genius). For sure, focus on the products that most people are interested in, that comparison of transparency modes was mind-blowing, would love that for spatialization/virtual surround modes as well!
The ANC and transparency modes are super similar imo. great review
Thanks!
Just discovered your channel, love how you review headphones! Subscribed!
Awesome, thank you!
100% agree. Loved it
Got an ad for these headphones while using the xm5 Sony app so was curious to learn more. This was great thanks. I like you found them to be not for me
Thanks for the review!! Those mics are perfect for this kinda stuff! I do wish you gave a bit more time for listening to the modes… but super awesome thank you!!
Very detailed review and great work. On top, you are a joyful person to watch.
Thank you kindly!
Just found your channel. The way you review the product, I truly believe everything you say because it's backed up with data and based on objective testing. I get to make the decision based on it. I love it!
Thank you! That’s absolutely my goal!
This is a great review. I love the live comparisons! Keep it up, dude
Thank you!
Great review! But damn that ult 2 sound. I was watching with my external speakers, I can feel that bass from the subwoofer
Covering reviews about soundstage and imaging would be a very big plus point on your already awesome review.
I think the sound samples cover the comparative differences, do they not?
@@ThisIsTechToday They do, better than most. It will still be helpful if you compare and rate them out of 10, but please keep it like this most of the way.
it'd be great to mention things like frequency range and driver impedance, awesome video!
I try to make videos for the masses, so I'm not one to measure frequency ranges. I'm also a mixing audio engineer, not an audiophile. My interest in frequency graphs are low compared to simply using my ears. There will be plenty of other great creators that will focus on that.
My favorite channel... Thanks from Egypt
Thank you!
This is a crazy thorough review. This is awesome
Thank you! I have a bunch of them in a variety of headphones and earbuds!
thank you for your review. I was looking for something that shows some cafe simulated environment! I have the XM4 and the audio for mic is bad so this gives me a frame of reference
Glad I could help! Thanks for watching.
Idk if you still have these but some KZhead shorts with different test songs on ult 2 would be dope
Amazing review. Best review of this product to date.
Haha, there's not many out there, but I appreciate it.
Great review, thank you!
Thank you!
Thanks for the fantastic video! Is it me or does the anc sound a tad better in the ult? Except the transparency i prefer the ult
Yeah, there are definitely some trade offs between the two, so it's not clear cut outside of the sound.
Do you have any videos on the Bowers and Wilkins Px7 S2e?
How durable are the hinges compared to the wh-1000xm4?
I need these. Lol some days I want that bass like that for certain songs
I was about to get the WH-1000XM5s after watching several of your review/comparisons when I saw that Bose had a new over ear headphone out. I'm going to wait for your review of them before I decide which to purchase. Your reviews are the most comprehensive and generally closer to my ear than others. Looking forward to your Bose QuietComfort Ultra review and comparison.
Send the BestBuy Link
I got the Quiet Comfort Ultra earbuds last month, best earbuds I've worn ever.
I'm a Bose user, I can say Bose sound tuning is leaning towards relaxing neutral sound, detailed. meanwhile Sony's tuning is more bassy, like EDM song feels better on Sony. both are well-built imo, my Bose QC35ii is 5 years old and still kicking, my friend's XM3 is also the same and still alright.
Ultra been out for a while, right
I got the quiet comfort the best sound cancellation and fit you can actually work out with it but it just too small for my ears. Surprisingly my favorite so far is the Beats Studio pro
Hey man, I really wonder how much latency there are on these? You have informed us about this in previous videos, I'm just rly looking to game in a noisy appartment.
Thank you for the review! Was wondering would these be a good choice for studying with the noice cancellation over the x5s?
Both have some really great ANC, so if you're trying to find something with good ANC but at a cheaper price than the XM5 and that's what you care about the most, I'd say these are a good choice!
This makes me feel good about getting the XB910n literally yesterday like new for ~$100. The phone call mics are still bad, and the ANC/Transparency improvements + wearsensor are probably not worth the $200 pricetag. If you're worried about the bassy sound signature, you can fix the sound pretty damn well with an EQ.
I might have to get these headphones! Ult1 I feel like I can listen to for a while, but when I want that car speaker bass level feel ill use Ult 2 👍
Thanks for this great review. What happens with the audio quality if we wear permanent glasses?
I'm a long time enjoyer of the now quite old Sony h.ear MDR-100ABN which I have loved wearing a LOT working from home for about 6-7 years (I love the cocoon feeling), but they're wearing out now, sadly. I REALLY liked these for the money. So I'm in the market for replacements - going to stick with Sony specifically for their ANC and the comfort vs sound vs money value. This is the first I have seen of the new ULT range. Apart from the ULT2 setting (your Honda bass bin analogy is so on point, lol), I think since there's a €150ish difference between the XM5 and the ULT, I'd be happy enough with the latter for sure. From your review, I think the ANC sounds a tad better on the ULT, as does the call quality and also the bass/sound quality with no ULT, and ULT1. ULT2 is ridiculous. I hope they still have an app to setup the equaliser which looked great on the various other headphones for the past few years!
This has to be the best headphone review I’ve ever watched. I felt like I was actually wearing the headphones.
Thank you! You should definitely check out the playlist. There are videos even more insane lol.
I have the WH-1000xm5 and the WH-1000xm4 headphones but me thinks I'll also be needing the ULT Wears bc I do need more bass in my life. No matter what I try, I feel like my headphones are never loud enough. Great review.
Try the Crushers EVO or the Crushers ANC 2
I'll try them out! Thank you! @@raps55
Get the Skullcandy crusher Evo. They are loud snd the bass is very very loud snd rattling
How do they compare against the XM4s?
I own the xm5’s.. I find them muddy and bland. Noise canceling is top notch. It’s really disappointing since I’ve owned xm3 earbuds for years and they’ve been perfect save some connectivity problems with my iPhone. Great video. I hope to find the ULTs on demo somewhere.
Love ur video❤ Question from me, im on a budget and feel stuck in picking XB910N or the ULT WEAR, The 910 is a 1k while ULT wear is more then the double, if you from a tech perspective would pick? What would it be? Would love the input.
I haven't used the XB9 so I don't know.
I always loved your reviews, but can you gives us an update from your sennheiser momentum 4 wireless headphones. Because I think momentum 4 wireless headphones need more attention. Thanks from Indonesia!
Thanks. No plans for a dedicated video, but once I get to a roundup 4 headphone comparison, I plan to include it. Bose QC Ultra, XM5, Momentum 4, and hopefully there's a new AirPods Max for the fourth spot. Just being patient and waiting. Unfortunately, focusing only on the Sennheiser doesn't have enough demand. The new earbuds video is showing that it's not as popular as I was hoping and I have to work through a lot of other videos first that people want and are more likely to succeed. It's hard running a business!
@@ThisIsTechToday Hi, thanks for reply. Oh you are right & I kinda get it now. I’ll gladly wait for your next headphone comparison then. Thanks man, and keep up the good review!
All right. Quick question. The Beats Studio Pro are often on sale, which one between the Sony ULT or the BSP would you choose? Very nice reviews by the way!
Ult because the default mode is at least okay and doesn’t hurt my eardrums in terms of the high end being too much.
Wondering how they are sound vise, compared to v-moda crossfade 3 wireless. 😊
I wonder if the issue with the microphone still there or not. Got this issue since xm3 and xm4. If you connect to the laptop, with mic on - for online meeting or gaming mode, the sound becomes really bad quality.
Have these and find the sound to be great and very customizable. My GF already wants a pair after trying mine out. I had tried the Sony XM4 a few years ago but found they had too many issues to keep them - mainly a crackling in the right ear issue and too fragile with water. I ended going with the Soundcore QC35 which balance quality with value well but ultimately break and aren't the best at ANC or sound (I went through 2 pairs). These may be just as fragile as the XM4 but are more affordable and currently on sale for $178. The ANC is great. The bass boost is fun. No crackling in the ear other than the leather earcups shifting a bit. I think the earcups look a little ridiculously big and the clamping force is a bit more than im used too. I also think that seal allows the better ANC and possibly more sweating. Overall I think Im going to keep them because they make me excited to listen to my favorite songs and new ones.
Woah you're wearing the new Blessing Dusk!!!
Yes I am!
Great review 🎉 I do want to purchase XM5 but a bit anxious about it since there is a speculation of XM6 release. Does anyone have any news on that ?
Thanks! I have no idea. I don’t keep track of leaks on them.
This was a fantastic, unique platinum review style for these headphones! I thoroughly enjoyed it! I'm impressed. At first glance, the ULT Wear seemed to me more of an alternative upgrade to the WH-1000 XM4's - with the exception of a somewhat downgraded shell, is exactly what I originally wanted the XM5's to be in the first place! Why not continue the foldable design since it was so well done with the previous gen flagship? I may need to get these for work so I can leave my precious M4's at home! 😂
Glad you enjoyed it!
That ULT anti-wind is pretty impressive 👍
I’m similar to you and prefer a more balanced sound signature. What headphones would you recommend in this bracket?
Audio Technica M50X
The ULT Wear reminds me of my MDR-XB950N1's with the Bass-Effect button, I loved those headphones but I soon after went ahead n got the WH-1000XM4's and haven't looked back since, was introduced to LDAC and haven't been the same since. Now recently picked up the WH-1000XM5's and I can confidently say they're a step up from the XM4's and really enjoy using them. Btw ULT1 is alright, still like that kinda rumble bass but ULT2 is ridiculous 😂 Sony shouldn't have added that!
Thanks for the great test! I feel like the ULT Wear is a decoupling of Sony’s XM line. Tbh the ANC and standard profile seem great. Even ULT1 is good for bass heads. I expect the XM6 to be a new, higher tier product designed towards the 500-700 price point - going after the AirPods Max, BW PX8 and Focal Bathys.
Can’t forget the Bang and Olufsen’s 🔥
That transparency mode on the ULT is sounding really good for a pair of $200 headphones (Not Apple or Bose level, but still good). It actually sounded a bit better than the one on the XM5 to me. That being said, I think you should check out the Crusher ANC 2 to see how they compare to it.
Can you please review the Heavys headphones? This is advertised for metal heads listener. Just curious what's the difference from WH-1000XM5. Thank you.
Simple if you like to be in a car with a subwofer if yes get them if you like more balance then don't get them
All I need to know is when are they going to announce the new 1000xm6? It’s looking like we won’t see them til late summer unfortunately.
I feel like the XM5 just came out. Time flies!
The better question is whether Sony is addressing the XM5's issues with comfort and sound. The sound felt unbalanced for me. It didn't satisfy me. Also, it hurts me to wear them very quickly on my head. This is why I switched to the Momentum 4 but the Momentum 4 is relatively heavy and I need to use an adapter to get aptX Adaptive on all devices. LDAC has a wider spread. And wait a second, Sony released the XM5 last year. The XM4 launched 2020, the XM3 was released in 2018. Why do you assume a release of the XM6 this year?
@ThisIsTechToday I'm still acknowledging the XM4's, bought them and felt like a week later the XM5's where announced and two weeks later people are asking for the XM6!! 😂
How would you compare them to xb910 extra bass? Which one would you suggest one should buy between the two?
With ULT off, these sound decent. What I am waiting on are your EQ settings for these. Or is it too much bass even at ULT 1?
They're decent with them off. I'm not sure if I'll spend time on the EQ for these. If there's enough demand, I might, but it takes me about a week or so to tweak and tune, and I'd rather make more reviews of all the other products coming out right now/that I have. We'll see!
@@ThisIsTechToday thats perfectly fine! I think the way you review these devices is unique and amazing. And if you have more of those coming, I’ll be back in the comments for those
Definitely more coming. 😊
Which headphones would you recommend, sony wh1000xm4, bose qc 45, bose nc700, b&w px7, sennheiser momentum 3? I am listening rock and metal
which is better for deep and clear bass, this or the scull candy crusher ?
Hola, que buen video. Me encantaría si pudiera haber una comparación con los Wh-xb910n, que igual su característica son los bajos.
How do the compare with the Skullcandy Crusher ANC 2?
Yea was wondering about that too
Hey man thanks for the informative video. Just curious what IEM are you using in the video? and what do you think about it
I just have one question: Why did they make the logo so shiny? It just looks poor and cheap. Especially in the sun. The XM4 has a copper logo that looks neat and aesthetically pleasing.
If sony won’t release their xm6 this year imma go with the XM5. Not really a base head. But boy the calls and nc/transparancy is solid on the ULT. 😍 Maybe I might wait a little longer till the xm6 drops. 🤔
Of topic: I like the sound quality of your speaking voice. 🔊
Thank you! I put a lot of effort into my audio. Typical Audio Engineer stuff, lol.
Müzik dinlemek için satın almak istiyorum. Diğer özellikleri önemli değil. Xm4 vs ult wear. Hangisi daha iyi? Hangisinin ses seviyesi daha yüksek. Müzik dinlemek için hangi kulaklık daha uygun? Lütfen cevap verir misiniz? Müzik için hangisi daha iyi? Xm4 vs ult wear? Ses seviyesi olarak hangi kulaklık daha iyi? Müzik dinlemek için hangisini tercih etmeliyim?
Thanks!
Thank you for your support!
The ANC test sounded like ULT is performing better in this area. Is that your subjective experience of using them? I really only care about noise cancelling performance and was about to buy the xm4s, but now I’m wondering if these are actually superior for noise cancelling. How would you rank xm5, xm4 and ULT purely in terms of noise cancelling?
Same here !
XM5 > XM4 > ULT in that order. XM5/XM4 come in close though
@@smdjuhurr9474 Yeah, I ended up buying XM4, I ended up having to swap them for the ULTs because one of my ears sticks out too much and I was getting pain, but I definitely felt like the XM4s noise cancelling was superior. I was really bummed out to have to return them. ULTs aren’t bad though.
@@smdjuhurr9474i'm not so sure about that.
What do you think about the Bose QC Ultra? Will you add it to your reviews in the future?
It’s on the list. I can’t keep up with all the things to make videos on 😅😅😅
I'm glad I saw this video. I thought this would be good for metal, but I guess it isn't. What would you recommend for someone who likes bass boosted metal? I have the old model WH 1000XM2B - they are good, but I'd like it even better.
Try Sennheisers, I have a Momentum 4, and it has a detailed sound with nice mids for heavy guitars, and slamming bass that doesn't overshadow the other frequencies. Treble is also better than on any Sony and Bose I have ever tested. I think the Accentum (Plus) might also work well, but I haven't listened to them yet. I also like B&W PX7 S2, but they have a more laid-back sound. The Momentum 4 are more forward-sounding and better suited for rock/metal imho. But they still handle every other genre really well.
@@VeitLehmann Wow, many thanks!
Try skullcandy crusher anc 2
If you’re gonna get the XM5, it’s definitely money well spent without a doubt. I’ve been using mine for almost a year now, still as good as new, fit and finishing is gold standard. But the new ULT seems pretty good for half the price, getting a Sony headphone is the smartest choice even on IOS.
Sony wh1000xm4.5
lol, kinda!
I need the XM6
@@markgutierez9922i'll take an X6 M
How well do they compare to Bose QC45s? I got Bose QC45 for 238 USD in sale
Sound is clearer on the Bose. They trade blows on other features. I’d keep what you have. No need to spend more money than you have to, tbh.
@@ThisIsTechToday 🥂 Cool! Btw even though I’ve heard from people that Bose has one of the top tier noise cancelling tech in their headphones but imo I still kinda feel like QC45s can actually have a bit more of it? I don’t mind if the cabin pressure increase but what do you think, can they make it better with any upcoming updates?
Would you think that the Bose quietcomfort 45 are a better option for the same price?
No definitely not. The Sony are better option
Could it possibly be that the ult suppress human chatter better than the xm5?! Filtering annoying chatter is my main interest in ANC...
ANC can't do much about chattering, passive isolation is the main factor here.
Wel well when are the XM6's coming out?
I have no idea
Listening on my WH-1000xm5. A bit sad about the comparison especially with the noise and wind stuff. :'(
Can I use the ULT option wired or can it only be used wirelessly? Thank you!
you can wired
Think The Ult wear is neck and neck with the Crusher anc 2 and xb910n
I have been using the XM5 for over a year now. I previously owned a JBL E55BT which is much cheaper and i still use it too which is about 7 years old now. XM5 to me is a little bit dull sounding because the highs are not crisp comparing to my JBLs. Bass is good but when i watch a movie or something i always go with the JBL because of the clear sharp sounds. I have tried other headphones as well. some anker soundcore stuff and more JBL stuff. I like the sound quality of the XM5 for music but not for podcasts or movies. I would like a little bit more crisper sound from the XM5. another thing is i ABSOLUTELY HATE the hinge slider thing. It always slides when its on my neck and every time i put it on i have to re adjust the headband. Just a bad design in my opinion. I never experienced a noise cancelling headphones before the XM5, you can still hear stuff but much quieter. If you are playing music then you pretty much dont hear anything else. but i was kinda spoiled with so many reviews saying its the best of the best making me think that it'd make everything dead silent.
hello can you please compare Sony WH-1000XM5 vs Sony Z7M2.
i already have an audio technica ath m40x, but i want more bass, will this be a good choice?
I mean, this will have a lot of bass. Too much bass, but it won't be tight or controlled. I'd prefer something executed on better.
Im thinking imma go for the sony ult wear. Recently my wh-1000xm4 just broke
xm6 should be out soon.
@@johncrow5552xm6 will most likely be far more expensive than ULT (450-500€ VS 170€). Sony heaphones use to get great discounts but most likely on 2025.
Can you review between 3 anc please
Ok don't pressure me, I'll buy em... Seriously though great review!
YOU ARE THE BEST!
Thanks!
how di u get your hands on these headphone ?is this in par with AirPods max?
Sony sent them to me. No.
Still waiting on the 1000xm6
One of the most important things that most ULT reviews (including this one) fails to mention is that the bass levels on the two ULT button options are ADJUSTABLE in the app. I’ve seen so many reviewers talk about how “ULT2 is too much” and the like. Well, you have ULT2 set to +10, then. In the app, you can set it to +1 if you want. It’s all USER DEFINED. The button essentially makes it so you have 2 bass level presets (the way you want them set in the app), available to toggle through via the button. That’s the selling point of this. I have the XM4’s and also just picked these up. Honestly, I like these better, for a fraction of the price.
+1 is too much already. Got em!
Man the mic sucks on the new phones. For this price point, these Sony’s or momentum accebtum plus?
Could you help me with an EQ that makes my Xm5 more bassheavy :P? This is clearly not my field 😂
I got XM3 now, should i choose ULT Wear / XM5 / or wait for XM6?
Wait for the XM8
I was thinking about ultra wear, but man, sound from mx5 is way way way better in my opinion
Need some help.. Should I get the XM4s or the Sony ULT????? HELP
Ults if you care about bass if you want good bass and clarity then the xm4s. I recently got some in November last year and I alr have over 600 hours on the headphones 10/10
even on ULT off the bass is PLENTY, im still comparing this to some jbl or other headphones just for battery life
Man you are the best! In a sea of fake review, this is refreshing!
Thank you!
i would never compare those with XM5 but to same line up :) like 900xb - 910 , definitly upgrade over generattion
my brother might like this extra bass as he always lika that.
you should review the new Bose QC Ultra Headphones that came out a few months ago.
It’s on the list. There’s a lot to review and only one of me.
These seem like a good replacemnet for the XM4's, if you still have XM3's, want to upgrade and cant afford the XM5, these are the ones for you
I agree!
Its amazing what you get for under 200 dollars. This headphones are lovely for hip hop, heavy metal and electronic music in my opinion. Although ult2 mode is unneccesary. Thanks.
Please, do not get the impression that this is good for metal. It is not. I listen to metal and it is not tight or punchy. It becomes a mess on anything other than off. I’m unsure how you came away thinking that based on this video.
@@ThisIsTechToday got it. Not metal i agree but music like Ramstein :)
No
Im the people not like you :) I just learned about these headphones an hour ago, been looking at reviews and im so excieted that there are some new headphones out that are ment to bring some proper bass ! When im in the mood for some trap or techno or even hiphop, I want my eyes to vibrate from the bass :D
I still use the XM3's.
me still with my beautiful pair of sony wh-xb900n
Will the Sony WH-1000XM6 headphone version be announced this year?
No clue. I wouldn't know.
Should I rather buy these or the skullcandy crushers because both have a lot of bass and cost the same
How much does ANC and a mic matter to you? I think that could help sort through your considerations.
