Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones Wireless
Sony ULT WEAR
Between the Sony ULT WEAR and the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones Wireless, they have different pros and cons. The Sony have a much longer battery life, and despite being chunkier, they're a little more stable-fitting. Their group delay is much better, yielding tighter bass, too. For most people, though, the decision will either be determined by how much bass emphasis they want: the Sony's ULT mode outputs big doses of thumpy low-end, though you can tame the tuning a bit with EQ. Conversely, if you want a slightly more excited sound, the Bose might appeal instead; they also have a less plasticky feel. The Bose's ANC is stronger, though the Sony's ANC system is still good. While you get LDAC Bluetooth support on the Sony, the Bose have more choices with aptX, including adaptive and high-quality.
