Sony ULT FIELD 1 vs ULT FIELD 3

The Sony ULT FIELD 1 is the Sony ULT FIELD 3's little sibling. While both are very portable speakers, the ULT FIELD 1 is about half the weight and features a canister-like design, in contrast to the ULT FIELD 3's rectangular edges. Both speakers are well-built and feature carrying straps for easy transportation. They perform similarly in most regards, with the key points of differentiation coming in the form of battery life and voice assistant capabilities, where the ULT FIELD 3 comes out on top. With 14.5 hours of battery life and Siri and Google Assistant compatibility (when paired with a compatible phone), it can take voice commands all day long. The ULT FIELD 3 also has a better bass response, bringing out big kicks in genres like house and techno. When it comes to portability, it's hard to argue with the ULT FIELD 1's compact size, though. Despite being smaller, it can also achieve a higher max volume, which defies expectations.
