Sennheiser is known for its high-end audio options and the MOMENTUM True Wireless 4 slots nicely among them. Though they're not the best at any one thing, the earbuds are a solid contender in the world of ANC earbuds.
Sennheiser's Momentum True Wireless 4 have class-leading audio handling and boost sound quality to rival the best wireless earbuds, but this next-gen version adds significantly to the price.
The Momentum 4 isn't night and day better than the 3 but then the 3 was pretty damn good anyway. A little touch of futureproofing has made a good earphone even better and the result is a must audition if you need new true wireless buds
You’re likely curious about how the Momentum 4 earbuds stack up against other options on the market. Let me be clear: these have quickly become my go-to earbuds, and I treasure every moment spent with them.The user experience with the Momentum 4 is stellar, and when it comes to sound quality...
Pushing even further, with a powerful sound, exceptionally long-standing battery life, great comfort and extensive controls, the MTW4 stands as one the best Bluetooth in-ears I tried, in recent years. Keeping almost all of what made the MTW3 great, with improved performances and extended specifications this new model feels like the best option, for anyone seeking an all-rounding TWS, with true audiophile performances.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4's superb sound quality, stacked feature list and solid design make it a top choice in a closely fought market. It's not best-in-class for ANC or call quality, but what it does, it does very well.
The Momentum True Wireless 4 are going to be very hard to look past – and beat – in 2024. I highly recommend them if you’re not forever bound by the AirPods Pro.
Still, the Momentum True Wireless 4 are excellent earbuds that I have no problem recommending. But as you can probably sense, I was hoping for just a little more. Perhaps we'll get that down the road with a firmware upgrade or two. Or maybe we'll just have to wait for the Momentum True Wireless 5.
It’s too early to definitively say that Sennheiser got it right this time, but that’s what my gut’s been telling me while testing the Momentum True Wireless 4 earbuds. Their sound remains exceptional, the glitches and defects from previous models are nowhere to be seen, and they’re stuffed full of the very latest Bluetooth capabilities you’ll find in 2024.
The earbuds lack advanced Dolby or spatial audio support, which is common among rivals. The case is a little bigger than ideal, and they feel a touch overpriced. But the biggest downside is the lack of replaceable batteries or repair options, ultimately making them disposable and losing a star.
Although the Momentum True Wireless 4 might not look like the biggest upgrade from the Momentum 3 on the outside, it boasts a more premium wireless experience than ever before. This is thanks to new innovations in its Bluetooth tech, like Auracast and aptX Lossless. These features are bound to show up on a lot of true wireless earbuds in the future, and although the Momentum 4 isn’t the first to feature aptX Lossless, it will certainly help bring it to a consumer level.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 earphones produce powerful, bass-forward audio and are very customizable, but they don't cancel noise as well as they should for the price.
Class-leading sound quality. Effective noise canceling. Good features and battery life. Stylish, adaptable design. Comprehensive and customizable controls. Well-stocked app. Multipoint pairing. Bluetooth LE and Aurocast (eventually). Qi wireless charging case.
Sennheiser’s latest flagship earbuds retain the excellent sound quality the company is known for, and add some quality-of-life updates that are improvements over the previous model.
