Sennheiser Momentum 5 Wireless

The Sennheiser Momentum 5 is a total refinement over the very successful previous-generation Momentum 4. With noticeably improved sound quality and noise cancelling performance, the Momentum 5 carries the torch for being one of the best values in the wireless headphone class.

When it comes to the upgrades, the Momentum 5's improvements were worth the wait. The company enhanced its already great sound profile and built a more effective ANC system on this model. Plus, it's slowly addressing my design gripes with the Momentum 4, thanks to small but meaningful details on this new version. And although battery life is slightly shorter than its predecessor, the Momentum 5 still gives you days of use on a charge, so you won't be reaching for a USB-C cable that often.

The Momentum 5 also has some other small upgrades, including a new, slimmer case, a spatial audio mode with head tracking and a new user-replaceable battery, which can be accessed by removing the right ear pad and removing a few screws. But their standout feature remains their impressive sound quality.

Offering a rich, detailed sound and plenty of overall appeal, the Momentum 5 Wireless are a timely reminder to rival premium wireless headphone brands: ignore Sennheiser at your peril.

The Sennheiser MOMENTUM 5 Wireless is a set of ANC headphones that improve in many ways over its predecessor. Offering a user-replaceable battery, improved ANC, and very low distortion, the headphones will make the #buyitforlife crowd very happy.
