Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless Review

The 3-Minute Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless Review

A Review of How True Wireless Earbuds Became Real

The Specifics

True wireless earbuds are real now. They are quite popular too. But, everyone thinks of Apple Airpods and Samsung Galaxy Buds and forget that phone makers are not the only ones giving doing something about wireless earbuds.

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless comes from one of the most dedicated brands in audio. It boasts a battery life of 4 hours. It uses Bluetooth 5.0 and supports aptX. The current firmware update has slightly improved performance.

At 78.6 x 45 x 35 mm in terms of dimensions, the True Wireless excludes your phone from the performance radius with aptX-Low Latency technology that offers the very best Bluetooth codecs.

The battery case offers two extra charges bringing the total battery life to around 11 hours on a single charge since you can have an average rundown of 3 hours 45 minutes per charge.

The dip in high-mids that is synonymous with Sennheiser in-ear products is present in the True Wireless. This frequency response means your music will sound a bit clearer, and you do not need to equalize much. There is an app to give more fine-grained control, but you’ll coast along really well without it.

The True Wireless gives users the ability to enjoy Transparent Hearing. This feature helps you stay aware of your surroundings. Sennheiser’s implementation of this feature is less harsh than what other brands offer.

The Best

The sound quality is definitely a marvel – bass, mid-range, and high frequencies leave the starting blocks with a blast and never relent. The charging case build is attractive in coarse cloth, and it offers USB-C charging.

The app gives great control over the sound and has an audio-cool user interface, while the earbuds can control playback, play music, or pause audio when taken out of the ear.

On another count, of even the best major brands, only the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless offers aptX-Low Latency. This is superior to AAC lovers for late-night TV and gaming.

The Bugs

Performance was slightly boosted recently due to a firmware update. “Slightly” because the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless was already a performance beast; there’s almost no place to go when you’re possibly the very best, you know.

Is it for you?

If you are crazy about clean, detailed audio delivered through non-obvious in-ear beauties, the Sennheiser True Wireless is the real deal.

What we like

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless offers more detailed audio with better bass than other products like Jabra’s Elite 65t, Elite Active 65t and Bose SoundSport Free. They are excellent for making calls, and their sound cancellation feature is enviable.

The durable design of the Momentum True Wireless prepares it for normal user wear and tear.

They fit comfortably in the ear, and each earbud is really light compared with its size. This is definitely a positive considering that they would sit in your ear without bothering any sensitive parts.

What we don’t like

The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless are bigger than the Jabras and stick out of your ear in a more prominently. Perhaps more significant is that they lose their charge in the charging case and would die after around four days, just sitting in the case.

Should you buy it?

If you want highly durable earphones with clean audio quality, the True Wireless is worth every cent of $299. It is highly portable and comes in a nifty case. It is also quite comfortable.
