For immersive music experiences, the Sennheiser Momentum Sport offers very good gaming and TV performance, excellent build quality, and standout features such as heart rate and body temperature tracking. However, if you prioritize longer battery life, both in the earbuds and the case, and the convenience of wireless charging, the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay EQ may be a better fit, along with good performance across various content types. Choose Sennheiser for a robust, feature-rich experience, especially during exercise, or Bang and Olufsen for longer playtime and charging convenience. Give Feedback

"Bang & Olufsen’s audio products prioritize style and function just as much as sound quality. The company’s latest Beoplay EQ noise-cancelling true wireless earphones combine strong, accurate-leaning audio with solid noise cancellation in an exceedingly classy design."

"We hadn't been expecting a new pair of dedicated sports buds but the surprise was nonetheless exciting. I got to try out the new buds at CES 2024 and while they have stayed true to delivering that "signature" Sennheiser sound, with a wide soundstage and strong sense of detail, it’s the extra wearable tech inside them that stands out to me against the best workout headphones."
