Sennheiser’s second-generation true wireless earbuds not only have extended battery life and active noise cancellation, but they’re also more pleasant to use. The touch controls are a lot more reliable this time around and the company kept the customization that allows you to fine-tune settings.

Stellar audio; ANC; Reduced size; Customizable controls; Handy app

Pricey; No wireless charging case; Battery life could be better

Sennheiser has made one of the best sounding pairs of true wireless in-ears with the Momentum True Wireless 2. If what you want more than anything is incredibly well balanced sound that holds the bass together and offers great detail and clarity, look no further.

Great and balanced sound; Battery life vastly improved; Charging case is attractive and portable; Passive noise cancelling works well

Quite expensive; Design isn't the most comfortable for long periods of wear; ANC doesn't seem to do a lot

“Sennheiser managed to make the best sounding earbuds even better.”

Unrivaled sound quality; Stellar active noise cancellation; Simple setup and controls; Revamped battery life; Sleek aesthetic

Expensive; Comparatively bulky design

A lot has happened in the True Wireless headphone market in the last few years. Many big players including Apple, Samsung and Huawei have entered the market, and many technical developments have taken place.

The price of $300 still seems too high for a pair of true wireless headphones. Especially since Sennheiser may have tried to offer more value by reworking the battery life and adding active noise reduction, these two points are absolutely not the best assets of the Momentum True Wireless 2.

Sober and serious design; Sound crushes competition; Complete controls; Good; but not great; battery life

No wireless recharging; The ANC falls short of the competition; Rigidity in EQ; High price

The sound quality, battery life, and design of the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 are nothing short of excellent, and we would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for an alternative to the Sony WF-1000XM3. Those with smaller ears may find them a little uncomfortable, however, and their high price stops them from taking the top spot of the best true wireless earbuds of 2020.

Incredible sound; Sleek design; Support for Hi-Res Audio; ;

May be uncomfortable for smaller ears; More expensive than rivals

While its previous true wireless were a solid pair, Sennheiser gets it right at the second attempt. While ANC is rather light, paired with a good fit and volume control and they keep away a good deal of noise.

Expressive; lush sound; ANC; Good fit; Robust feature set

Pricey; ANC and Transparency Mode tax battery life

These Sennheisers are among the most refined-sounding wireless earbuds we’ve tested - if your budget can stretch this far, you won’t be disappointed

Refined; mature sound; Lightweight and comfortable; Nice to use

Relatively pricey; Timing can be bettered

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 is at the moment right up there among the best truly wireless earphones you can invest in....
