Gorgeous looks and build quality ; Good battery life ; Effective noise cancellation ; Excellent, entertaining sound

Newer rivals have a lot more features

Not the latest wireless and noise-cancelling headphones – but still fantastic.

Top-notch comfort ; High-quality, fun sound ; Good looks

Less subtle looks than first generation ; Sound more fun than outright accurate

Sennheiser hits another home run with the new Momentum heapdhones, although if you own the first set, there’s no real reason to upgrade.

Comfy pads ; Involving, rich sound ; Good looks

Fairly poor isolation

Attractive, classy and involving headphones only let down by limited sound isolation.

Fun sound ; Plenty of features

Very expensive ; Lack of high-end sound traits ; Limited noise-cancellation ; Average wireless performance

The Sennheiser Momentum 2 On-Ear Wireless headphones are a really nice package let down by a price that's simply too premium for what's on offer. They sound good, look good, have good controls and acceptable noise cancellation, but these features can't...

Good amount of low end to an overall solid sound ; Decent amount of detail ; Neat and attractive design

Could be more dynamic and rhythmic ; Slightly bass-heavy balance won’t suit everyone

A little pricey

The Momentum range just got even better – these headphones look stylish, offer great functionality and sound superb

Premium design ; Dynamic, balanced and enjoyable sound ; Comfortable ; Choice of cables and connections

Chunky carry case ; Not the most portable in design

Best portable on-ears £200-£300, Awards 2013. Smooth, punchy, refined all-rounders – and great-looking too

Decent sound with ample bass, noise-cancellation, comfortable to wear for long periods, good battery life

A little flatter sound that lacks high-end pop compared to some competitors, large size/ivory won’t appeal to all

The Sennheiser Momentum M2 AEBT over-ear headphones do a grand job of looking rather excessive in their ivory colour scheme. Good job there's brown and black colour variants then. But such aesthetic doesn't really reduce from their high points: ultra...

Superb sound quality ; Gorgeous design ; Comfortable

Expensive ; Noise-cancellation is always on

For most people, the biggest stumbling block for the Sennheisers is the price. These are seriously expensive headphones, even by high-end wireless standards. Still, if you can’t quite stretch to the £380 price tag, there’s a second model called the...
