If you prioritize high-quality sound for music, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 would be the better choice, especially with lossless audio streaming and advanced Snapdragon Sound Technology. They are also better for gaming due to low latency and have active noise cancelling for quieter listening experiences, making them suitable for air travel. On the other hand, the Soundcore P20i is far more affordable and still provides good sound quality and features such as sweatproof certification, making them practical for exercise. However, they lack some of the advanced audio features and their sound isolation and battery life are not as impressive as the Sennheiser's. Keep in mind that the Soundcores may not deliver the same immersive audio experience as the Sennheisers, particularly for gaming or in noisy environments. Give Feedback

What HiFi
Andy Madden | January 2024
"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."
