If you prioritize call quality and gaming or watch a lot of TV and video on your devices, the Sennheiser Accentum Plus would be a better fit, as it excels in these areas. It also features slightly better durability compared to the Momentum 4. However, if longer battery life and comfort are more important for you, and you don't mind spending a bit more, the Sennheiser Momentum 4 is the superior choice, with a longer battery life and higher comfort rating. Both models support AptX Adaptive for low-latency wireless connection and feature excellent noise isolation, but neither is certified as sweat or dustproof, making neither ideal for heavy exercise conditions. If portability is essential, note that both are similar in size, but the Momentum 4 is slightly heavier. Both models offer very good overall sound quality, but the built-in controls are rated as excellent on the Accentum Plus, providing a more seamless user experience. Give Feedback

Sound Guys
Christian Thomas | January 2023
"If you're looking for a slightly more affordable set of ANC headphones in comparison to the Bose or Sony offerings: the Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 Wireless is not a bad way to go. While its ANC is technically behind the other top-tier headphones, its sound quality is ahead of the pack—as is its battery life. Not bad for $350 USD."
