    Does it get warm on ears ? After how many minutes ?

      I’m sure they do. My XM4s get warm after about an hour of wear. It’s the nature of the padding they use.

    Interesting headset but i will keep my XM5’S cause i love them so much and bass is not an issue for me i find the balanced sound a plus for me

      The ULT’s are basically just a budget version of the XM5, so they definitely weren’t made for people that already own the top of the line.

    They look huge… Especially on me with super short hair/blading man.

    Looks like they manage to bring the foldable into xm5 design

    I wish Sony would launch a successor of 720 N.

    • @davidcarnoy961

      April 11, 2024 at 3:01 pm

      They usually update every two years, so will be a 2025 update.

    Probably the 1000-XM6 will probably Be Sony XM6 or Sony Mark 6

  8. @MrLee-ps3kd

    April 11, 2024 at 3:37 pm

    Hey just wondering are they coming out with mx6 this year

    • @Jay_Ceeog

      April 11, 2024 at 8:29 pm

      They said holiday or early 2025

    • @WarlordMoA

      April 11, 2024 at 8:32 pm

      No MX6 will likely come out late this year or early next year, the XM5 is ver recent.

    We have another Gamechanger here boys. Time to get rid of my 2 pairs of XM5… As these are the Ultimate I need them…

    • @jesuscervantesj82

      April 11, 2024 at 6:43 pm

      Well, I’d say good luck, I have the XM5 And no I will not get rid of mine, please for these. I know the Bass is perfect but I prefer the sound stage and clarity of the XM5 And I find it really weird, leaving a flagship exit for a mid. Range

    April 11, 2024 at 4:29 pm

    Another solid review!! Anyone know if we are getting XM-6s this year?

    • @davidcarnoy961

      April 11, 2024 at 4:47 pm

      In theory they should. XM5s were released in May 2022. Sony typically is on a two-year update cycle.

    • @davidcarnoy961

      April 11, 2024 at 4:48 pm

      Could happen. Sony usually is on two-year upgrade cycle and May will mark two years from XM5 launch.

    • @Jay_Ceeog

      April 11, 2024 at 8:30 pm

      I’d say holiday this year or early 2025 😂

    I like my Sony headphones better

    ULT is a terrible name.

    • @prosperomiponle7645

      April 11, 2024 at 6:54 pm

      It’s not that bad lol

    • @jesuscervantesj82

      April 11, 2024 at 7:27 pm

      Better than the Xm models I’m used to saying the name but it’s too long

    • @tenzindodhon1711

      April 11, 2024 at 8:30 pm

      Agreed

    • @Jay_Ceeog

      April 11, 2024 at 8:32 pm

      Sony is using barcode names ngl 😂😂

  13. @hardcoreep

    April 11, 2024 at 6:25 pm

    Does the App have a setting to control the ULT bass level?

    • @Jay_Ceeog

      April 11, 2024 at 8:33 pm

      I think they do

  14. @neptunexo_

    April 11, 2024 at 6:31 pm

    I don’t like how they look the outside cup is too big funny looking I’ll pass

  15. @prosperomiponle7645

    April 11, 2024 at 7:01 pm

    My xb900n just broke a few weeks ago, and I was looking for options to replace them with. I got in the soundcore space ones today and they’re pretty good, but I’m far from satisfied with their NC performance, so if these can match the 900N, these are getting picked up next

  16. @iblackfeathers

    April 11, 2024 at 7:20 pm

    it looks like you can stick either anime antennas or security cameras on both ends for the design style because it looks like something is missing. looks really weird on the head.

  17. @WarlordMoA

    April 11, 2024 at 8:24 pm

    Yeah I did not feel the Sony XM5 has a ultimate deep extra bass, it feels like the vibration than a curated sound.

    • @WarlordMoA

      April 11, 2024 at 8:31 pm

      I would recommend Sony to use Ultimate or Sony Ultra or Sony Marx 5, Sony doesn’t have a very good grasp on marketing there products because the design is beautiful but cheaply made to built and the technology, I wish Sony can try going universal through firmware updates to improve the quality of sound in there flagship’s as well the other models.
      360 Audio should not come with a subscription app if Apple can use Sony’s Spatial Audio through a tab of a button in Settings, what is stoping Sony from doing the same in there Sony Headphone app, activate 360 Audio or improve Bass line and all of this can be done to improve the use of their app so you don’t have to wait for somebody else to do it for you.

  18. @Jay_Ceeog

    April 11, 2024 at 8:31 pm

    From looking at these id say sony has made a foldable xm5 which should be the xm6z and thats dope 🤣🔥
