Choosing between the Sennheiser Momentum 4 and the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 depends on your preferences and intended use. If comfort and battery life are your top priorities, and you don't mind a larger form factor, the Momentum 4 headphones are probably better. They are over-ear, have excellent noise isolation, and offer outstanding battery life for extended listening sessions. However, if you prefer something more compact and suitable for exercise, the True Wireless 3 earbuds are more portable, offer great noise isolation, and are sweatproof. Both models have an integrated microphone for calls and access to virtual surround features, but the Momentum 4 excels in sound quality for music and TV/video experience. Remember, over-ear headphones like the Momentum 4 generally provide richer sound and comfort over longer periods, while true wireless earbuds like the Momentum True Wireless 3 offer more convenience and mobility.

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."
