Prefer the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 if you value very good sound quality, the convenience of wireless earbuds, better controls, and features like active noise cancelling, lossless audio streaming, and other advanced tech suitable for varied use including music, calls, and gaming. The Sennheisers are better for an active lifestyle as they are sweatproof, but cost more. Give Feedback

How the Creative Labs Aurvana Trio LS and the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 compare to other earbuds and headphones
"These super-affordable wired earphones are some of the best I’ve heard in recent years. For the money they are unbeatable. And before you say: “I can’t use them as there’s no headphone jack on my smartphone!”, they can work with jack-less phones by using the brilliant little Creative SXFI headphone amp which plugs into a smartphone’s USB or Lightning port (with an adapter) and produces the most sublime audio output."
"It’s fair to say our brief time with the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 was a generally positive one. Comfort levels seem similar to what we have experienced before and the general flavour of sound was to our liking although we need to get a pair in to test and put up against the big rivals at the money from Bose and Sony. It could be an interesting contest."
