Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless review

Sennheiser's true wireless earbuds may sound the best of any we've tested, but frustrating controls and other annoyances hamper what could be an otherwise stellar product. Plus, these respectable options from the likes of Jabra and others are available...

Best audio among true wireless earbuds ; Respectable battery life ; Refined design ; USB-C charging

Frustrating touch controls ; Don’t always turn off when you put them in the case ; Pricey compared to other capable models

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless earphones cost a pretty penny but deliver very good audio quality you can adjust to your taste.

Excellent audio performance with rich lows and solid balance. Free app includes user-adjustable EQ to dial in preferred sound signature. Excellent mic intelligibility. Transparent listening mode.

Expensive. On-ear controls are a little cluttered.

Sennheiser's Momentum True Wireless earphones sound great. There's solid bass depth without going overboard, and you can tweak the sound signature to your liking. The mic clarity and transparent listening mode will likely appeal to business travelers,...

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless review: The best-sounding totally wireless earphones yet

If you're looking for the best sounding totally wireless earphones, look no further than the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless.

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless headphones fit comfortably and sound excellent, and their wireless performance was solid with minimal dropouts. They work very well for making calls, have touch controls, and their battery-charging case charges via...

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless headphones are pricey, and they're a bit larger than Jabra's Elite 65t buds. Battery life isn't quite as good as what you get with certain competing models, and not everybody will love the touch controls.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless are the best-sounding true wireless earphones we've tested to date, but you'll have to pay a premium for that better sound.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless review: sonic standout

The best-sounding wireless earbuds? Here they are.

The best, purest sound of any true wireless buds yet ; Durable earbud design and case ; Comfortable ; Good microphone performance

Wildly unintuitive touch controls ; Flaky wireless ; Need to have the case with you at all times ; Twice the price and size of AirPods

Wireless headphones, in all forms and sizes, are going through a period of rapid transition and transformation. For its first entry into the true wireless realm, Sennheiser has upheld its reputation for excellent sound, but the company hasn’t completed...

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless Review

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless are okay mixed usage closed-back in-ears. These truly wireless headphones have a great wireless range and good isolation pe...

Minimal audio leakage. Support for aptX-LL Bluetooth codec. Well-built and durable design. Graphic EQ in companion app. Very good passive noise isolation. Stable, breathable fit.

Short battery life. In-ear fit might not be for everyone. Poor microphone recording quality. Sub-par treble accuracy.

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless are adequate for mixed usage. Their bass-heavy sound profile is better-suited for genres like EDM and hip-hop, though it can be adjusted with a graphic EQ in their companion app. However, their in-ear fit may not...

Sennheiser's Truly Wireless Earbuds Sound Impossibly Good

I walked into this review hoping to be disappointed. Ever since I first reviewed them four years ago, the over-ear Sennheiser Momentum Wireless has been the model to beat in terms of supreme sound quality in the world of Bluetooth headphones. So when...
