The Sony ULT FIELD 5 Portable Speaker Is on Sale Right Now

Sony may be best known for its headphones, but it also makes good speakers. Its latest flagship portable speaker is the ULT field 5which was launched with the ULT Field t and ULT Tower 9 last springall designed to be portable and robust. This speaker sits between the ULT Field 3 and the ULT Field 7, offering a good compromise between portability and power. Right now you can get the biggest of the range for $219 (originally $329.99), the lowest price ever, according to price tracking tools.

The ULT Field 5 is a bass-rich portable speaker that is suitable for those who value long battery life and portability, as you can read. PCMag’s “excellent” review. It comes with a ten-band EQ, a real woofer (which is surprising considering its portable size), a base-boosting ULT mode, an IP67 rating (waterproof, dustproof, shockproof, and rustproof), and the ability to connect to other speakers via Party Connect.

With the ULT Power turned on, you can expect 25 hours of battery life, making this speaker competitive in its market. Blasting it at full volume will drain the battery much faster, giving you five hours max. A quick 10-minute charge gives you two hours of battery life, which is important for a portable speaker. The sound is stereo and you can use multiroom if you have other Sony speakers to play media simultaneously with the companion app.

This speaker is designed for parties, outdoors or large work spaces. It comes with a shoulder strap that you can hook onto the speaker to throw over your shoulder, adding to its portability. It uses the Sound Connect app, so people in the Sony ecosystem get the most out of it. You can see battery life, control the equalizer, connect to other Sony devices, and use the DJ Control feature that lets you add scratch and horn sounds to your music.
