The Sennheiser Momentum on-ear headphones are accurate in delivering sound quality but it's not designed for long periods of usage. With a price tag of $230, it failed to live up to my expectations.

+ Accurate sound signature; + Old-fashioned retro design

- Pricey for an on-ear headphone; - Discomforting

In-ear headphones are capable of awesome sound, but you might not be aware of that if you're used to hearing music through the cheap sets included with your smartphone. Even a slight step-up in headphone quality can nab you a set that can achieve ideal sound isolation from the outside world.

You get what you pay for: The $499 Sennheiser Momentum Wireless headphones are nearly perfect. The design is timeless, albeit a tad understated, and the rich audio with the spacious soundstage is trademark Sennheiser. I also appreciated the quick wireless setup and the intuitive controls.

Rich; crystal-clear audio; Attractive; sturdy design with premium materials; Good active noise cancelling; Easy-to-use wireless controls

Expensive

Thumping bass and excellently designed "bright" side with clean vocals make this ear-phone worth buying

Vibrant mids Bright highs Strong cables that are tangle-free Metallic ear pieces Very low distortion even at high volume Good looking (Swaggy) design Wonderful; compact carry case with enough space to store 2 more earphones

A little bit pricey Would expect an additional pair of ear tips Some music tracks can sound too bright

While it may be a bit overpriced, the Momentum 2.0 Wireless is an excellent and well-designed Bluetooth headphone with active noise-cancellation that also offers strong wired performance.

I have been recording and mixing songs for 7 years. Having a Sennheiser is my dream. Now I got that chance to experience this product and I must say that I am fully satisfied with the quality of the sound. It is as if the sound was already set up for auto tuning even if it's not.

Produces quality sound

Pricey for starters

The Sennheiser Momentum Wireless headphones not only look great, but they pack in serious sound quality, feel great on the head and pack in some of the best active noise cancellation we've ever heard - but all of that comes with a rather hefty and steep price tag.

The original Sennheiser Momentum headphones were first introduced back in 2013; and they offered top notch sound quality with premium materials and a comfortable fit; along with On-Ear and In-Ear additions to the line-up.

When it comes to bad things to say about the Momentum Wireless headphones, we're really nitpicking; The multi-function volume button for example does feel a tad fidgety at times, as while adjusting the volume is fine and user friendly, tapping the button a few times to change songs feels annoying...

We won't go so far as to say you shouldn't consider these, since they are beautifully built and designed. Sound can be satisfying for the most part, and they definitely get loud enough, if that is a factor in your listening needs.

Sennheiser's on- and over-ear Momentum models have been highly praised for successfully combining form and function, bringing Sennheiser audio performance to the style-focused headphone segment.

Lightweight and comfortable design; 3-button Android remote available; plentiful bass and solid overall performance

Midrange is a bit recessed

The audio quality is really good, but the quirk with the design is a bit hard to live with....
