The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 offers exceptional sound quality and a better experience for gaming due to lower latency and integrated virtual surround sound, at a higher price point. In contrast, the Soundcore Life P3 is less expensive with good active noise cancelling and a longer battery life, including wireless charging, but is less suited for gaming due to higher latency and doesn't feature virtual surround sound. For frequent travelers or exercise enthusiasts, both offer good noise isolation and are sweatproof; however, the Soundcore has a lighter, smaller earbud design, which may be more comfortable for some users. The Sennheiser has better overall build quality and mic quality, making it a stronger choice for calls and meetings. Give Feedback

"With the Momentum True Wireless 3, Sennheiser cements itself yet again as one of the go-to brands for wireless sound quality. It has a fun and engaging sound signature that has great bass and a great stage, accomplishing what only some of the best Bluetooth earphones can, and that’s clarity."

Alex Bracetti | July 2021
"Anker continues its trend of stealth releases, recently dropping the Soundcore Life P3 out of nowhere. This product essentially replaces the disappointing Life A2 NC as the brand’s flagship ANC model under $100. It comes with bassy audio and enough features to give even the best noise-cancelling earbuds pause."
