Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 Wireless Premium Over-Ear Noise Cancelling Headphones - Black

Aside from the somewhat disturbing habit of assuming command of any device that comes anywere near it with bluetooth - once you do wrestle back control and show it who's boss, they perform beautifully.

Used these for a few weeks now.....here are some thoughts
Pros
Loved the sound quality of these. I can hear all the instrument separations and it made me re-fall in love with my old music.......unfortunately that's the only pro i can give it.

Cons
Auto connection - If your headphones in the case is not upright or bottom flat, then you risk your headphones auto connecting despite being in case. A firmware update did not solve this
Noise Cancellation - It's good enough but not great. My Sony earbuds WF-1000XM4 block out more noise than these (heaps of reviews stated these are on par if not slightly behind the XM5 but it's not comparable)...view more Used these for a few weeks now.....here are some thoughts

Touch Controls - Extremely finnicky, tried many ways to make it consistent but ultimately i find myself controlling volume and track swapping on my phone over touch controls
EQ app - OMG this is one of the buggiest apps i ever used. it took forever to find my headphones and crashes alot. this is saved when it does work, it works well.
Comfort - These have strong clamps for my head and its not very comfortable for me. this will vary for each person, so i recommend you test these out to see if they are comfortable

Ultimately, These headphones are saved by their sound quality and it's enough to make feel mixed about the product. This isn't a bad buy if you are after good sound quality wireless headphones with other features that are serviceable. If you are after a more rounded headphones (i.e. a better balance of sound vs features), i 100% recommend the XM5s over these. As for me, im debating about returning these for the XM5s, but it is very hard to go to anything else after experiencing the sound of the momentum 4s

Headphones were faulty - which I understand can happen - so had the already annoying task of taking them back to the store to swap for new ones.

Realised later with some research online - some reported issues with connection drop outs because the auto-off mechanism would not recognise the headphones were currently in use (on my head) hence would switch off every 15, 30 or 60 mins depending on the setting.

1st service agent in the store was very unhelpful and was not able to replicate the issue so told me i had to take them back or PAY a restocking fee.

Thankfully common sense prevailed when a more helpful staff member took over but the unfortunate experience was unnecessary.

My 2nd pair were fine at first but now frustratingly started to experience connection drop outs again. Not a great experience but not planning to go back to that PB Tech store again so hoping they can be fixed with a future update.

Regrettable purchase unfortunately

It was one of my greatest upgrade.
Quality, signature sound and battery is very much appreciated.
Love the sound experience from this. Great value for money. ANC is so good.Recommended to all.

The headphones are as good as described. Comfortable to wear and easily adjusted. Great noise cancelling. Great for long journeys The headphones are as good as described. Comfortable to wear and easily adjusted. Great noise cancelling. Great for long journeys

First off do your research before spending this amount, I had look reviews on here and some problems may still occur.

These are some good headphones for comfort and battery I decided to buy these as I had just finished my first job, I upgraded from the Sennheiser 350 BT's they were already good enough they didn't have anc but they had noise isolation and a good sound profile. These do have some things that you wouldn't find on less expensive from Sennheiser like a case anc a headphone jack for laptops which i like cause it brings me to the choice of not using battery and I find better for audio and comfort.

These do have some things that you wouldn't find on less expensive from Sennheiser like a case anc a headphone jack for laptops which i like cause it brings me to the choice of not using battery and I find better for audio and comfort. I find with the anc that it hurts a bit with my ears and soreness around the ear cup area, with the anc quality it's like just a marketing tool they use because it used mics to reduce the out side noise I don't think it's that much better than the noise isolation I had with my 350's. So if you want the best and have them for years pick these if you'd like but I think now every headphone is good enough now days you don't need to spend this much on a pair. I'm a bit disappointed in myself thinking I need a flagship when the lower priced headphones do the job good enough.

In the end it all depends what you want and the things you'd prefer like battery I'll mange to probably get 2-3 weeks worth of use. Hope this was helpful

It sounds awesome if working well. The app also is great in tuning the sound profiles.g However, connection drop-offs are common almost periodic even. Especially if you use it on bluetooth on a laptop, drop offs are appearing periodic, like every 10-15mins or so then your game/laptop is suddenly blasting music on the computer speakers (I recommend to use a cable connection to avoid this). On a phone it's better, not as frequent except when you're walking or moving. At least on a phone it's less annoying since the music stops when the bluetooth connections are cut, resumes when restored. Touch controls are quite OK, sensitive but at times may...view more It sounds awesome if working well.

Touch controls are quite OK, sensitive but at times may get confused with what you want to do. Advantage is there's not much buttons to fiddle with the controls. Cons though, the lack of buttons could also be tricky when you're operating especially when you get disoriented with the touch areas. Battery life is also awesome, true to the 60 hr on ANC promise. Overall, quite OK but the connection drop offs can be annoying.

Very comfortable.
Great sound, including bass.
Long lasting battery.
Plenty of smart features, such as turning off automatically when placing back in the case, automatically pausing play when you momentarily lift the headphones from your ears.
Would recommend. Very comfortable.

My headphones gaslight me by pretending they're on 0 battery -- flickering red light and saying "recharge headset" then when I plug them in they're instantly at 100% battery etc, are are definitely actually fully charged. Regardless of that, connection is a pain and I very frequently have to reset them and repair, and it's horrible. They sound fantastic.

Sound quality is good, probably better than Apple air max, also ANC is very effective. Comfortable to wear, but sometimes are difficult to connect to devices.

Been using it for a few weeks now, has never failed me. Been using it for a few weeks now, has never failed me.

I have used a bunch of headphones before and my common problem with them is that it becomes painful on the ears during long hours of use. It has been about 2 weeks since I purchased Momentum 4 and I can say that it is very comfortable even after using it for long hours. I was also able to use these headphones for a call and the sound of the voice of the person I was talking to was just so clear. What I can say in terms of the noise-cancelling is not completely blocking the surrounding sounds when you are not playing any music which means it is not a complete noise-cancelling headphones.

What I can say in terms of the noise-cancelling is not completely blocking the surrounding sounds when you are not playing any music which means it is not a complete noise-cancelling headphones. But the sound quality is very good, the bass level is just perfect. However, if you are planning to use this headphones for playing a game which will access the mic, expect that the sound quality of the background music and music fx will not be good at all. Since it will prioritize the voice rather than the music, the sound quality of the game music will be bad. Other than that, it was a good purchase for me.
