Sennheiser Momentum Wireless

Brilliant audio quality Cool design Customizable settings

Battery life isn’t great More expensive than rivals

There’s a lot to love about the Sennheiser Momentum Wireless (2019); they sound fantastic, look good, and are easily customizable thanks to an app. However, they’re let down by a measly 17-hour battery life and their high price.

Comfy, rugged build ; Best-in-class sound ; Everlasting battery life

Finicky multi-function button ; Terribly pricey

These no-holds-barred wireless headphones are oozing with positive qualities, but, at $500, they're almost prohibitively expensive. If you're an audio lover that can spare the expense, do not hesitate on this comfortable, hard-working set of headphones...

Deep ; rich sound ; New foldable hinges ; Premium finish

Pretty expensive ; Mushy buttons

Stylish looks and comfortable fit ; Battery life lives up to 17-hour promises ; Unfold and fold to switch on and off ; Varying degrees of noise-cancelling/audio transparency

Auto-pause function is too sensitive ; Battery still not quite as epic as competitors ; Bass is a little boomy ; Not the cheapest noise-cancelling cans

Packed with smarts and high-end features, these great-looking over-ear cans are made from high-end materials and are worth considering based on the design alone. The sound is great, too, although the boomy bass won't be to everyone's tastes and the...

Lovely design and finish ; Sophisticated, engaging sound ; aptX Bluetooth (and aptX Low Latency too)

Can be bettered for noise-cancelling ; Quite large ; Ordinary battery life

Big headphones, big price, big performance

The Sennheiser Momentum 2.0 Wireless is a well-designed, sturdy headphone, that folds up for more compact storage and features excellent sound over Bluetooth, as well as over a wired connection. The headphone is also equipped with active...

Expensive; like the Beats Studio Wireless, you can't turn noise-cancellation off (it's always on when you use Bluetooth).

While it may be a bit overpriced, the Momentum 2.0 Wireless is an excellent and well-designed Bluetooth headphone with active noise-cancellation that also offers strong wired performance.

Unique look and design ; Fantastic sound quality ; Strong Bluetooth connection with low latency ; USB-C charging

Expensive ; Battery life issues ; Large charging case ; Touch controls too complicated

The original Sennheiser Momentum headphones were first introduced back in 2013, and they offered top notch sound quality with premium materials and a comfortable fit, along with On-Ear and In-Ear additions to the line-up. Now the German audio company...

When it comes to bad things to say about the Momentum Wireless headphones, we're really nitpicking. The multi-function volume button for example does feel a tad fidgety at times, as while adjusting the volume is fine and user friendly, tapping the...

The Sennheiser Momentum Wireless headphones not only look great, but they pack in serious sound quality, feel great on the head and pack in some of the best active noise cancellation we've ever heard - but all of that comes with a rather hefty and...

Superb sound ; Very comfortable for long term wear

Expensive ; Noise cancellation could be better -- and can't be switched off ; Multi-tap skipping is tricky to get right

and many others. The Momentum Wireless deserves its place amongst them as a top-notch set of wireless cans, but the buying decision will be tough.
