In their words

@kirk781 · Owner-reported

Owned 1–2 years · Still using it: no, stopped · Posted

My buds broke twice within first year of warranty. Quality control for them was horrendous. Add to it a very bulky case and it didn't do the company any good. The only good thing was it's sound quality but everything else was downright average.

The verdict

Sennheiser proves that you can pack great sound and active noise canceling (ANC) into a sturdy built set of earbuds, but at a price. This latest flagship, the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3, is pretty much capable of meeting or exceeding expectations for most tasks you throw at it.

✓Liked: Good sound with interchangeable ear tips and ear fins, Bluetooth 5.2; aptX Adaptive, aptX, AAC, SBC, Good noise canceling, Sound Zones is useful

✕Could be better: Price is high, EQ tool is only okay, Connection is not as stable as expected, Mic could be better
