Momentum 4 Wireless Headphones - Black/Copper Special Edition, Bluetooth, Adaptive Noise Cancellation, 60h Battery, Lightweight Folding Design, Forbes Award-Winning, Touch Control

After having used these for nearly 2 years i can safely say that they're the best wireless headphones I've tried, beating out similarly priced Sony's, and a family members Bose headphones. Of course, as it comes to a product like this.. it's purely just my opinion. The app that you can download from Sennheiser is simple and easy to use, giving you the ability to mess around with the EQ or set it to some of the preset ones in the app. The best option for me is the ability to turn off touch controls completely. I'm clumsy and I'm constantly brushing against the right ear cup so that was a huge boon for me. Noise cancelling is good, and gives me less of a... pressure feeling inside the ear cups. It does take some fiddling to set it up right though. On the highest setting wind seems to get through a little bit. but setting it to roughly 3/4 lowers the wind noise while still delivering on cancelling out other noises. The last point i want to touch on is the customer support from Sennheiser. The left ear cup developed a slight ticking noise when NC was on. I filled in the short form and sent it off. I got a reply within 30 minutes giving me instructions on how to ship it to them for repair. Everything was free, and fast. They got my pair at roughly 8AM and by 5PM the same day they had sent me out a brand new pair. So overall i'm happy with the product, and happy with the company.

The Sennheiser Momentum 4 headphones offer a premium audio experience that justifies their higher price point. The fact that you find them to be very good after extended use speaks volumes about their sound quality and overall performance. The infinitely adjustable features likely contribute to a personalized listening experience, allowing you to fine-tune the audio to your preferences. Comfort is a crucial aspect of any pair of headphones, and it's excellent to hear that the Momentum 4 provides a comfortable fit. This is particularly important for long listening sessions, making them suitable for extended use without causing discomfort or fatigue. The extended battery capacity is another positive aspect, ensuring that you can enjoy your music for an extended period without constantly worrying about recharging. This is especially beneficial for those who are often on the move or use their headphones for long periods throughout the day. While the price may be steep, the combination of exceptional audio quality, adjustable features, comfort, and long battery life make the Sennheiser Momentum 4 headphones a worthwhile investment for audio enthusiasts or individuals who prioritize a top-notch listening experience. Overall, it seems like you've found a high-quality and reliable pair of headphones that deliver on their promises.

I have been a Sony WH1000 series headphone user from 2016, but they have now become so expensive. £399 is a ridiculous price to pay. I purchased these Sennheiser's Momentum 4's instead for £161 and I can honestly say these perform just as well if not better in terms of the sound quality. The bass is just incredible. The build is just as good as the Sony and I find them more comfortable than the WH1000MK6 when I tried them a friend's. The noise cancelling is very good, but the Sony MK6 have the edge (if you want to pay more the double). No thanks Sony.

I'll start with the most egregious negative first; I'm on my second pair of Momentum 4's. The original pair I sent back to Sennheiser for RMA, because they started crackling in the left earcup. Now, this pair has started crackling, also in the left ear cup. I bought my original pair for £209 on October 9th 2024. I am writing this October 21st 2025. That makes two pairs of headphones, exhibiting the same fault in just over ONE YEAR. I won't bother RMA-ing this pair, since I expect I'll just get the same issue in another 6 months. To be clear, I've used them with factory settings, apart from enabling AptX HD. They haven't been exposed to water, and I listen at about 30-40% volume. If you're still considering buying these for some reason, the pros and cons are as follows. Pros: * The sound quality is decent, though not amazing given the price. * The companion app is surprisingly functional (and doesn't require sign-in, amazing!), with a 5 band EQ, access to ANC settings, and an option to prefer AptX HD when using Bluetooth. * The battery life is decently long, I can't give an exact number, but I found I only needed to charge every 5-7 days or so, with on and off usage, and the headphones are decently comfortable. Cons: * The headphones are 100% plastic, including the earcup hinges, which creak if you dare move while wearing them. * The active noise cancellation is present, but more noise reduction than cancellation. Fortunately, you can disable wind reduction in the app, which improves the noise cancellation, but, unsurprisingly, increases wind noise. On a positive note, the transparency mode is surprisingly transparent! * The Bluetooth playback in AptX HD mode is weirdly spotty, sometimes it's rock solid, staying connected through multiple walls, and sometimes it hitches at less than a meter away. I've found that the Qualcomm Wi-Fi/Bluetooth chipset in my laptop is more reliable than the Realtek one in my ThinkPad, and most surprisingly, better even than the BTD600 dongle. * The final issue; sometimes, the controls decide they don't want to work properly. Sometimes, both the volume up and down gestures *increase* the volume. Sometimes, taking the headphones off doesn't pause the currently playing media, but putting them back on does. Sometimes, tapping the right earcup (the play/pause gesture) when connected to two devices - a selling point of these headphones - doesn't pause the currently playing content, but starts whatever was last playing *on the other device*. Even ignoring the quality (control?) issues, I probably wouldn't recommend these headphones. The build is subpar, the ANC - again, a selling point - is *far* behind the competition, and the Bluetooth is far flakier than other headphones I've tried, and that's saying something.

First felt sound irritating, but after trials with EQ and personalised sound, much better now. It's great for people who like to listen to the details of the music , while could be strange for people like smooth warm sound (matter of preference now). The case is handy and has everything inside which is great. The presentation is stunning ,the details and the look, even the build is great (didn't tried it for long term to see durability). Comfort wise not the best but not bad at all. Call sound is good, could sound bit buffed sometimes, but general speaking good. Fit quite good.

I spent some time considering the Sennheiser Momentum 4 and the Sony WH-XM4. Both excel as over-the-ear, sound-cancelling headphones. I eventually opted for the Momentum 4, and I have to say the quality and richness of the sound surprised me. Sony is well known for heavy bass, but Sennheiser takes the same punchy bass but delivers it with precision. It's impressive. The build quality feels robust. The ear pads can also be replaced should the leatherette deteriorate. The headphones are easily adjusted. I feel I have quite a large head, and each cup can easily be extended. I do find the clamping force a bit stronger on the Momentum 4 compared to my Sony WH-XM3, but it is light enough for extended use. The case included with the headphones is equally sturdy and likely to offer good protection. I find it slim, but slightly bulky, yet still slides into my bag without much fuss. It does include the necessary cables if you do not plan to use wirelessly. Admittedly, the 2.5mm jack on the headset took me by surprise. I am more familiar with 3.5mm, but, longer cables are easy to find and inexpensive. The battery life is second to none. I rarely have to charge the headphones. The touch controls are also intuitive, especially if you have used similar inputs. I really enjoy the transparency mode, which is one-touch activated. On previous Sony's I've owned you had to hold your hand awkwardly over one cup to activate. There are a few niggles to overcome. I've had more than a few instances where I've turned the headset on and it's not automatically paired with my iPhone. I have to manually head to the Bluetooth settings and reconnect. A slight annoyance if nothing else, and thankfully it hasn't dropped the connection while I'm listening to music. The noise cancelling is still great, but, struggles in wind, which can be picked up by the microphones. The microphone quality during calls is acceptable (7/10). Still, for the price I paid, they should provide years of crystal clear, punchy music and I am happy to recommend.

TL:DR While they may have some idiosyncracies, they are totally worth learning to manage as the sound, battery, and general functionality is excellent I've been using these for the past 5 months and can honestly say they are one of the best pairs of headphones I've used in a VERY long time. While they might not be "perfect" in all areas, they are excellent in enough to assuage the issues. The sound quality via bluetooth is absolutely EXCELLENT, they have a -very- wide soundstage compared to a fair number of bluetooth headphones I have tried, and also have a very clean, separated sound, all the elements are clear and distinct to the point I've heard things in songs and videos that I had not before even listening through my monitor set up. I've not tried them wired, where they could be even better because the BT is so good (YMMV I spend time shaping the EQ in the app which is well worth the time) Battery life is top tier, I wear them while commuting and on breaks, and often wear them of an evening connected to my PC and seem to only have to charge them every few weeks. They also have a neat function were they pause the music when you take them off and seem to go into sleep mode until you put them back on They can be connected to multiple devices, although this is where some minor issues start to appear. I have mine connected to my phone and my pc via a bluetooth dongle - unless you don't manually put the headphones to sleep using the power button, you can sometimes have devices register a connection to the headphones, which can pause things you're listening to through speakers. They come with a sturdy headphone case that has spaces for, and includes, relevant cables e.g. USB and headphone, and the headphones fit very nicely in to it, which is useful as they do not fold in any way. They are portable with some planning.. or a thin neck I guess! The touch controls are a great idea and work really well in principle... but as alluded to I have a thick neck, and it is tremendously easy to "press play" on the earcap with my chin 😅Also the double tap for ANC doesn't register as well as it should, but the increasing/decreasing ANC motion does. There is an app that seems expected to get, but is also totally worth the download. Has its own equaliser to be configured, as well as other ANC controls, being able to configure sound zones using the ANC microphones and others beside. I got them with a fairly good discount in a sale, but would not have been disappointed if I had paid full price

I was so excited to get the Sennheiser Momentum 4 and I didn't realise they did a special edition version which is the one I ended up buying. This is the first time I ever seen special edition arrive in a basic brown box it felt like I'd purchased refurbished headphones. I quicky went back on my order page to see if I did buy a refurbished one and I didn't. Appers the special edition comes in this brown box with no extras just a different colors trims, where as the standard edition comes in this nicer box with a nice welcome card. Once I got past the package I was presented with a nice solid case in the case was the headphones with gray band and with copper trims, it looks nice. Also in the case was a usb-c charging cable, a 3.5mm audio cable but upon closer inspection the cable is 3.5mm on one end and 2.5mm one the other and a plane adapter. I wish a microfibre cloth was included because these headphones are a fingerprint magnet due to the touch controls you are constantly having to make contact with the right ear cup however, the touch control was easy to get used to so no problems there for me, but on head detection does not always work. You put them on your head and the music plays very cool you take it off it does not pause the music as it's supposed too. Whilst trying to search on how to fix this I read so many issues with this headphones regards the on head detection failing and some reports of bluetooth disconnects. Although my bluetooth does not disconnect per-say but it does a weird thing, I'll try to explain the best way I can, my music is playing, if I put the music app in the background so I can for example send a message the music cuts out for 2 seconds then comes back. If I bring the music app to the foreground after it being but in the background, the same thing happens the music cuts out for 2 seconds the only way to stop this is let the music play and not to put the music app in background or multitask. Sound quality is good, I listen to electric music and just left the settings on flat for the headphones and use my music players own EQ to tweek to my taste. Noise canceling is good. Battery is good, I use the headphones for 2hrs per day and I loose 10% per day, bere in mind my music is in HQ and my phone and these headphones are set to play in HQ. They do have some weight to them so it will take some time getting used to having them on your head, they are comfortable though and value wise they are quite expensive side. I'm hoping there will be a firmware update soon to fix these bugs I'm experiencing.

Solo llevo unas horas con ellos y no necesito más para reconocer un producto de calidad, brillantes, buenos acabados y bien pensados hasta el más mínimo detalle. No soy un experto audiófilo, no he tenido auriculares de 'prestigio' como los Sony, los Beats o los Airpod Max como otros que los comparan, solo tengo unos Airpods Pro de 1a generación y ya me parecían buenos, hasta que me he puesto estos, es otro nivel. La experiencia de uso la primera vez es una maravilla, bajar la app Smart Control Plus y te sumerges en el mundo de Sennheiser y ya no quieres salir de ahí, emparejamiento inmediato, personalización de la app, control total del dispositivo, información de batería, firmware, cancelación de ruido (ANC) y una guía para ajustar el sonido a tu gusto que, en menos de 3 minutos, te deja los auriculares como si los hubieras diseñado tú para tu música, espectacular. Se activan solos al ponértelos aunque los hayas apagado con el botón de Off) , se apagan si te los quitas, se pueden localizar a través de la app para saber dónde están, tiene diferentes ecualizadores predeterminados y el tuyo personal y para colmo puedes programar ajustes que se activan por posicionamiento, por ejemplo, en casa una configuración y en el trabajo otra y eso lo hace automáticamente cuando detecta la posición, brutal. Pero hablemos del sonido, que son para eso. Puedo decir que he redescubierto canciones que había escuchado cientos de veces, voces nuevas, instrumentos de fondo que no sabía ni que existían, detalles y hasta la respiración antes de una nota, todo en su sitio y equilibrado, la sensación de calidad te entra por los oídos y te estalla en el cerebro. Muchos se quejan de la cancelación de ruido, que no es la mejor, solo puedo compararla con mis Airpods Pro de 1ª generación y estos cancelan mucho mejor, probado hasta con la aspiradora, ni la oigo, sé que está encendida pero no la oigo, me parece magia y eso que ya tenía cancelación en los Airpods, no me viene de nuevo, pero me ha sorprendido. Los acabados Special Edition me parecen bellísimos, elegantes y sin estridencias, Llevo gafas y después de varias horas de uso en casa no he notado ninguna molestia, no se notan en la cabeza y no aprietan y aún y así no se caen para hacer un poco de deporte en casa con ellos puestos. Los controles táctiles me daban mucho miedo pero que va, lo dicho, esta gente lo tiene todo muy bien probado, funcionan perfectamente y te haces en 5 minutos con ellos, volumen, pausa, play, pasar canciones hacia delante o atrás, contestar llamadas, colgar o rechazarlas y hasta puedes variar la cancelación con pellizcos o anularla con doble toque, todo funciona perfecto, lo máximo que te puede pasar es que te recoloques el auricular y hagas una pulsación de pausa sin querer, hasta que aprendes como agarrarlo para eso y no tocar el panel táctil. La batería es de 60h, sí, no me he equivocado, 60h y con cargas de 5 minutos tienes horas de reproducción, me parece hasta mágico, que fabriquen móviles por favor. Para los que quieran que les sangren las orejas ya os digo que el volumen es más que suficiente pero tiene un límite, supongo que como protección auditiva, pero con cancelación no hace falta subir mucho porque solo oyes la música, el mundo desaparece. Los he comprado en Black Friday por 184€ después de verlos a 299 durante mucho tiempo, no puedo estar más contento con la compra, un acierto total, no hace falta que sea profesor de música para querer unos auriculares así, si te gusta tu música y quieres oír tus canciones con el mejor sonido posible estos auriculares no te van a defraudar. Ah, los he emparejado con mi tele LG y perfecto, calidad y buena sincronización de audio, ideales también para ver la tele por la noche o en la habitación y no molestar a la pareja o a los vecinos. Un 10 de auriculares, no sé cómo serán los otros de la competencia, pero tampoco quiero saberlo ya, cuando pruebas esta calidad entiendes por qué Sennheiser tiene la fama que tiene, se la han ganado a pulso con productos así.

I have tried SONY, BOSE but picked this just for audio quality, battery life and Comfort. JUST GO FOR IT

Muszę przyznać że nie spodziewałam się takiego szoku jakiego doznałem! Słucham moje ulubione stare kawałki i odkrywam je na nowo!,

Been down a rabbit hole and researching for about a month before deciding on the Sennheiser Momentum. Went to some local stores to try out all of the popular headphones but went in with a certain list of priorities (in order); 1) Sound Quality 2) Comfort 3) Portability 4) Noise Cancelling 5) Battery life Contenders on the list were: - Bose QC ultra: Amazing ANC, great portability, decent sound quality but a bit on the dull side. - Sony XM4 & XM5: Bassy but flat and muffled sound, great ANC and portability. Avoid the XM5 at all costs though, the hinges are a major design flaw. - Sennheiser Momentum 4: Blows everything else out of the water in terms of sound quality, same for the battery life. Not quite as portable as the QC ultra's and XM4s but comes with a great case nontheless. - B&W PX7: Didn't get a chance to try these out. Pro's; If you prioritise sound quality over anything else then it's an easy choice, nothing comes close to it in this price range. Track separation, bass, clear vocals... it's all there and it's an immersive listening experience. The ANC might not be as good as Bose or Sony but it's certainly nowhere near bad ANC performance. I recently brought these on multiple flights and trains with me and have 0 complaints. After having used Airpods Pro's for about 2 years I can confidently say that the transparency mode on the Momentums is pretty comparable too, which is a great thing. The controls (despite being touch) work surprisingly well but keep in mind that fingerprints are pretty visible on the black versions. As for the case it comes with, it looks a lot larger on the product page than it actually is in person. It's also very sturdy and packs some smart features which have worked flawlessly so far. When it comes to battery life... well it's probably the best on the market right now and almost feels like a challenge to drain it. If you don’t need the absolute best ANC on the market and want something that just objectively sounds better than any other consumer headphone in the €300 range, then the Momentums are a clear winner.
