With the matric exams in full swing, coffee becomes a food group, and the library suddenly feels like a second home.
But this time, you don’t have to suffer through it in silence (or worse, with bad sound).
With the right tech in your corner, even the longest nights can feel a little lighter and a lot more productive. Because let’s face it: when your playlist is clear, your calls are crisp and your gadgets actually keep up with you, half the battle’s already won.
ULT Wear
While there are many headphones on the market, Sony’s ULT Wear headphones are designed to make “just one more chapter” sound like a luxury experience.
The headphone features soft earpads and extra space around your ears which can be a comfort when having headphones on for a long time.
Dual Noise Sensor technology, paired with the Integrated Processor V1, turns background noise into a distant memory, ideal for tuning out that one study partner who insists that “music helps them concentrate,” but whose playlist is pure chaos.

Features
The ULT Wear has a built-in sensor that automatically pauses your music when you take them off, then picks up right where you left off when you’re ready.
Battery life? Up to 30 hours with noise cancelling on, or a staggering 50 hours without. And if you’re running late to your next study session, a three-minute quick charge gives you 90 minutes of playtime.
The headphones are available at Sony World for R3 499.
Noise-cancelling
If you need headphones with noise-cancelling to dull the background disturbances, look at the Sony WH-1000XM6.
With processing speeds seven times faster than its predecessor, the headphones fine-tune 12 microphones in real time to block out distractions.
You’ll get up to 30 hours of battery life, and a three-minute charge gives you a whole three hours of playback.
Available at Sony World for R9 999.00.
Take a break
While studying should be the priority, there is also a need for breaks because no one can study 24/7 (no matter what your timetable says).
The Sony ULT FIELD 3 is a powerful, portable speaker that delivers deep, thumping bass.
With its USB Type-C port, you can even use it as a power bank to charge your other devices.
Available in Off White, Forest Grey, and Black, it looks as good as it sounds. The Sony ULT Field 3 retails for R3 999 at Sony World.
