when Apple announced their pods the market was quickly flooded by truly wireless earbuds from other companies and most of them were sports wireless earbuds meant for working out but then premium truly wireless earbuds started to become a thing so given that ear pods are super popular and overall pretty good is it really worth paying almost double for something like the sennheiser momentum truly wireless earbuds nose premium truly well is here buds on the market right now let me tell between 250 and 300 dollars whereas the air pods retail for what I think is a reasonable hundred and sixty dollars but the Sennheiser Momentum's we have here specifically we tell for three hundred dollars louboutin even just released their own bread to truly wireless earbuds which command a $1,000 asking price so it could definitely be worse so if you want to pick these earbuds up I'll have them linked down below a common theme among premium truly wireless earbuds is that they try to use more premium materials and have a more fashion-forward design compared to the all plastic earbuds and a Sennheiser Momentum's are no exception starting with their carrying case it's completely covered in fabric so it's gonna be scratch resistant and personally it reminds me of a miniature carrying case that comes included with premium ANC headphones like the Sonia 1000 X to the three and surface headphones the air buds themselves are in your earbuds that don't have your fins but do you feature a touchpad on both earbuds now I'll go deeper into these touch pads in a minute but personally I wish these metallic spin rings also came in a black option for those who don't want their earbuds to stand out as much now when it comes to comfort like I mentioned earlier these are in your earbuds and you get a total of four different silicone ear tips personally I only like to wear in your earbuds for short periods of time like when I'm at the gym because after a while they do get itchy to me so I am a little biased towards the air pods when it comes to all-day comfort and wear but objectively even though the Momentum's don't use orphans since they're so lightweight and compact they do a very good job of thing in your ear and they don't fall out and since these are in your earbuds they do a much better job of blocking ambient noise compared to the air pots but personally I just can't wear the Momentum's for nearly as long as air pots and even after a while I forget I have my ear pods in which it just doesn't happen within your earbuds for me we're going tech specs the Momentum's have a pretty average 12 hours of total playback time the earbuds themselves are good for four straight hours of playback time and the case can supply an additional two charges whereas the air pods have a total playback time of 24 hours when they're brand new my repairs on like 2 years old now so they can't do that but the ear pods themselves are good for five straight hours of playback time and the case can supply an additional four charges give or take and the airplanes charge in case is pretty impressive overall because even though it's one of those smallest charging cases out there it's usually able to supply more charges compared to larger charging cases but something the Momentum's charging case has going for it is that it charges via a USB C port and having a USB C charging port here can be particularly useful for Android users because they can charge their phone in earbuds with the same cable just like iPhone users can with their ear pods and Android users are also going to have a better user experience on the Momentum's when it comes to connectivity now these are bizarre using bluetooth 5.0 and they have a master and slave set up like most other non Apple wireless earbuds where the right earbud is the master and the left ear bud is the slave and overall they have a very stable connection that doesn't cut out and in an earbud which can be a problem on some other truly wireless earbuds out there they're even good for watching videos on your phone because they have very little latency which again can be a problem on some other truly wireless earbuds out there but just keep in mind they do have a bit latency when watching YouTube videos on an iPhone but that latency goes away if you're watching Netflix whereas these earbuds never happen really and see one users an Android device and they even support both attacks and apdex low latency which is good now when it comes to sound quality there's no denying tease your budget managed to sound better event the ear pods specifically the Momentum's have more detailed mids and better estimates operation compared to the air pods where as I found the mid on air pods to be a little muddy and they try to cover that up with an excess amount of base but the Momentum's also have an adjustable EQ and even though this EQ is useful I wish I had more control over it and just find the dresser controls to be pretty limiting I just wish I had more control over the EQ similar to the j-bird run xt but one of my favorite things about the Sennheiser Momentum's is their touch pads on either ear button one of the problems a lot of other truly wireless earbuds have including air pods is that they have very limited media controls so if you want to do something as simple as skipping a song or raising the volume you either have to rely on your voice assistant which can be tedious compared to just using an inline controller like we used to do when why are your buds were more common or you just have to whip out your phone more often but thanks to these earbuds touch pads and Sennheiser's a well thought out by and layout you can fully control you music unlike the air pods if you tap once on the left ear but you can play your positive music you can double tap to skip a track and you can triple tap to go back a track and to raise a volume you can press and hold on the right earbud and to lower the volume you can press and hold on the left ear button you'd be surprised to learn that not a lot of other truly rollies earbuds give you this level of control over your music with their onboard controls and it's a very welcomed feature but these earbuds are also feature a transparency mode which can be very useful if you're walking around the city or you can talk to someone without having to take your earbuds out of your ears basically if you're listening to music if you double tap on the right earbud the Momentum's will pause your music and pump in all of the ambient sound around you very similar to quick attention on the sony one Allison lexan 3 and if you want you can even keep transparency mode on and play music at the same time so it's like listening to music with open-back headphones the only thing that you can't control is how much ambient noise these earbuds pump in but so I'm glad the Momentum's have this feature these earbuds can also automatically pause your music when you take them out of your ears like air pots but unlike air pods instead of using proximity sensors the Momentum's paused your music when the earbuds are physically separated from one another just on out point that out now when it comes to phone calls on the Momentum's or one of the few truly wireless earbuds out there that actually offer you stereo phone calls unlike a lot of other truly wireless earbuds where phone calls will only come in your body usually the master and when it comes to the microphone on the Momentum's it's okay but it's definitely not as good as earbuds but this audio clip is being recorded by the microphones found on the Sennheiser Momentum's so you could get a touch of that but overall Sennheiser is truly wireless here but to perform very well the Momentum's have solid Bluetooth connections which is the most important thing to consider when choosing truly where all those earbuds they sound great I like that you have full control over your music playback things to the touch pads and I really appreciate their transparency mode but I wish the Momentum's were able to at least match the air pods 24 hours of total playback time given that their carrying case is larger and I also wish they came in a black version for those who want a more subtle look but at 300 dollars I personally find it very hard to justify spending all that money on a pair of wireless earbuds when there are cheaper options out there specifically the ear pods and almost for the same money you can get a pair of premium ANC headphones or for less you can get a great pair of two men generally headphones like the audio technica sort of 50s but I know some people just don't want to wear headphones cuz they're going to mess up their hair on their way to work or they just don't want to lug them around and that's completely understandable so if you're dead set on getting the tons just know they're a good pair of wireless earbuds if you made it this far I guess you enjoyed the
