@@Gianni-tn2xgi bought the jbl flip 6 and the next day i went to return it. The mids and treble is mushed up due to this harshness from 3-5khz and i cant really listen to music with that even for free.
So far as I can tell.....they are just too fanboyish. They feel threatened by anything being as good or better because then it means that the thing they love (JBL speakers) is not as special as they believe it to be. So Sony "have to be" lesser or inferior regardless of anything.
Can Sony ULT Field 1 speaker be paired with Google Nest Audio via Bluetooth only, if Wi-Fi feature is absent in Sony speaker? Will it seamlessly work if I give voice command to Nest Audio to play songs to my liking?
I bought jbl flip 6, extremely well balanced. I went to a nearby store and compared with marshall 2 and sony ult1. Jbl flip 6 was far better@@HammoTechReviews
@@HammoTechReviews Can Sony ULT Field 1 speaker be paired with Google Nest Audio only by Bluetooth, if Wi-Fi is absent in Sony speaker? Will it seamless work if I give voice command to play songs to my liking?
Yeah, I have two questions: Would it be possible to operate for years in and out connected in pairs as main speakers, which however could be anytime taken with to operate from battery? Is there a built in intelligent charging feature? And this bring me to the second question: are the batteries easy to replace? These looks solid anough to purchase, but these features could lend some longevity to the otherwise solid build. Thanks!
They don't mention any intelligent charging here. I think plugging it in to listen got a day or so would be fine but over longer periods it may damage the battery. It also unfortunately doesn't support replacements.
Only one question: Can my google home mini connect to it with bluetooth so that i can play with chromecast from my phone instead of bluetooth from phone?
It's miles ahead of the XB23 and even the XB33. They shouldn't even be considered a comparison tbh. The XB23 is in the same range and the new Sony field 1 but definitely not the 7. The closest comparison to another Sony speaker would be the XG500, but the field 7 is better than that even.
@@HammoTechReviews ok thanks One last question Sir that I have Srs Xb 23, 43 and XV 800 , so this ULT field 1, is it using the party connect? If yes, then I'll buy when it's available.
@@souvikmukherjeemukherjee3313 ah sorry for some reason I thought this comment was on the field 7 video. As we are comparing the field 1 to the 23 yes they are quite similar. Apologies for that haha.
IMO new speakers have better sound quality and clearer vocals especially in EDM. but the older ones have a bit more crunchy bass. idk about this the ULT. but xb41 also had more bass then xb43. but xb43 have like higher audio quality.
@@HammoTechReviews Yeah, also his little brother Partybox 210 win over SONY ULT Field 7, especially the deep bass department. I am no JBL fan base, but for Deep bass of Partybox series are really serious thing. But don't disappointed, SONY ULT Field 7 can crush and outperformed JBL Boombox 3. They are the same level competitor.
@@HammoTechReviews Jeez .. I wonder why Sony can't provide basic info like 'sound output in watts' BUT thanks for the info on bt version (which again is missing on their product page .. weird!!!). Have you tested phone calls, by any chance .. in case you do please enlighten us about the quality of calls. Appreciate your review.
@@prithvi9727 Seems to be getting more common for these big brands to not actually tell us the RMS output any more, maybe because it's slightly less than its competitor (JBL Flip 6) and they don't want people to just look at that and then buy the JBL. The Mic was quite good actually, you can accept/end calls using the pause button and the Mic was good enough, although I only tested in indoors.
@@HammoTechReviewsThanks - having a good mic is definitely handy. (rant 🗣️) >> Not providing RMS watts of a speaker is akin to not informing a car buyer about engine cc .. it's core. BUT I guess Sony won't bother till a law gets enacted ;) Appreciate it, cheers!
@@HammoTechReviews After much web searching, I could find the RMS mentioned as such on the Sony Cyprus website: "RMS rated power: 30 W, Woofer RMS power: 20 W, Tweeter RMS power: 10 W" .. but no mention of BT version 5.3 on this site .. go figure!!! 30W RMS, it is & that's actually going off the rail if one considers a 'portable' speaker .. so if it's too much of a good thing then that's hidden as well ;) I am therefore guessing there'll be an actual 'mini' portable one out with 2.5 or 5W RMS from the non-ULT normal legacy stable. Let's see. Good day!
Dont know about the sony but i had anker soundcore boost. Then i bought the flip 6 and it sounded horrible. I cannot listen to such a sound even for free… so i returned it the next day.
@@stargazerxddi think the sound signature is just very different on jbl and soundcore, if you get used to jbl's it will probaply sound good but soundcore is awesome as jbl:D
@@Subwooferrrr its like the anker had objectively superior sound… the bass goes much deeper and the mids are well separated from the treble. The jbl has some peak at 3-5khz which mids and treble mushed up completely. The bass is very boomy and bleeds into the mids. And the vocals lack the natural warmth bcoz there is hole or too little response from 200 - 700 hz.
That's a good question. The frequency range is still much better on this but the volume and bass will be very similar if not slightly less than the charge 5. I think I would still take this at the moment just due to the massive improvement in sound quality, but it would be a close match
Returned JBL flip 6. It's horrible on high volume, all the quality fades. Big no no. My Sony srs-xb12 keeps everything intact and better on full volume. I know flip is still better but I'm talking about the main point. Poor engineering nowadays. Why would anybody enjoy 10-15watts to get all the qualities instead of 20-30 as mentioned.
I don't understand why so many jbl fanboys try to bring down Sony because this is clearly an amazing speaker
For sure, this is excellent
I answer the same, they literally hates SONY. JBL sometimes is too harsh, a lot people say that. I like SONY
@@Gianni-tn2xgi bought the jbl flip 6 and the next day i went to return it. The mids and treble is mushed up due to this harshness from 3-5khz and i cant really listen to music with that even for free.
As a JBL fanboy, I agree with your statement and I love too

I will definitely be picking two of these up. Looks like a fantastic little speaker 😊
You won't regret it 😁
I bought Bose Soundlink Flex in the end and all I can say is I feel complete with it. It's just perfect!
@@ManpreetSingh-vf5oh glad you like it! 😁
My sister has the flip 6, I bought the Sony and I think it sounds slightly better
You recently reviewed the Harman Kardon Luna. Would you recommend the Sony ULT Field 1 over the Luna with regards to:
1) Sound
2) Features
@@Mrandyol i think it takes the lead in sound for sure. Would need to remind myself of features on the Luna
Idk what it is, but Sony is hated on so hard by mainstream media. Everything I've gotten from them is top notch.
It's so Funny how JBL fanboys click in another brand reviews only for say JBL is better 😂 they will never accept Sony do better this Time

@@sumitghoshal1792 I think it will need WIFI, but worth a look up
Is it better in bass, vibration and louder over bose Soundlink flex?
@@ManpreetSingh-vf5oh I would take this over the Bose any day!
I think the Bose may be louder, but the bass feels stronger to me on the Sony

I'm not sure of the capability of Google Nest, but the Sony has no WIFI connection so probably not

Nice review bro but can u compare it to the harman kardon luna
I'll try get my hands on one
Only one question: Can my google home mini connect to it with bluetooth so that i can play with chromecast from my phone instead of bluetooth from phone?
Ive never tried to set it up like that. I doubt it to be honest, I think they need to officially support Google home and assistant for that
I now have it it cost me 102 dollars with taxes on amazon it was discounted 🎉❤ very powerful very loud it's impressive it definitely kills jbl
Sir, I have Srs XB23
Is it better than XB23 or similar to XB 33 ?

What’s better this or the Bose soundlink flex??
@@justinsnow3979 never tried the Bose unfortunately. Hope to soon
Would love a comparison of the Field 7 vs JBL Partybox 310 as, price-wise, they’re direct competitors. Thanks…
That would be interesting 🤔 will try to get it setup. We know the 320 wins already though 😁

Ultimate 😁
How is it compares with Tribit XSound Plus 2???
Haven't tried that yet. Will let you know when I get my hands on it
How is it against the JBL Charge 5? I’m still deciding if I want to keep my Charge 5 or get this hmm…
