MOMENTUM
Sennheiser's MOMENTUM headphones are one of its most popular active noise cancellation (ANC) headphones. With a solid track record and a competitive price, the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless headphones are up against tough competition from the latest offerings from Bose, Sony, and Apple, but they offer plenty to make them worth your consideration if you're on the market for ANC headphones.
The ear cups are padded and designed to comfortably fit around your ears. The top of the band which goes around your neck, is covered with soft leatherette. The band is flexible enough to fit glasses. I found it comfortable for hours.
In contrast to some rival ANC headphones unlike other ANC headphones, the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless has a balanced sound rather than focusing too much on highs or bass. This is a great thing, because it offers an accurate representation of the music and speech you listen to. They do tend to veer into the realm of higher frequencies that are boosted, but that's a common characteristic of headphones designed for commuters, since outside noise is likely to compete with low-level music as well as speech.
Like other frontrunners in the ANC category like other top contenders in the ANC category, the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless noise reduction is good. It's not as good as the top ANC headphones we've tested however, it is close. As a bonus, you can defer projects to the next quarter by two clicks, making them an excellent option for school or work.
It is possible to connect the MOMENTUM 4 Wireless to a device via Bluetooth, and you can choose to use SBC, AAC, aptX, or aptX HD codecs. The 3.5mm headphone's jack can be used to listen to music sources without Bluetooth support.
The MOMENTUM Wireless comes with a microphone array that allows you to make and take calls. The microphone is adequate but not the best for phone conversations. It's still better than the microphones found on the majority of headphones, though.
