Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Review - Design, Sound Quality, And More!

Wireless earbuds sound no longer something new to many people, especially those who are technophiles. But what qualities that make the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 earbuds still a more desirable product as compared to Sony's and Jabras' even with the cost of Rs. 24,000? So let’s check out this Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Review!

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Review - Design

This second version of the Momentum True Wireless is based on the previous version that is attached with a similar charging case but in a darker shade and minimalist style. The earbuds of this version are several millimeters smaller compared to its predecessor, but they are still really big for people having medium-sized ears. In general, they fit in the ear hole quite well, but the part outside is said to be too big for the long use. 

The outer side of the buds feels like a brushed metal sensitive surface that allows users to jump to any soundtrack, activates virtual assistants like Google Assistant, and turns on the noise cancellation. These functions are relatively installed to be activated on the left and on the right of each pair of earbuds. You can also set other behaviors for your own pair via an app.

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Review - Sound Quality 

This should be the feature that this Momentum True Wireless 2 is very confident of. It conveys a slightly warm sound that is quite perfect for enjoying rock and blues music. In case you seek for something exploding for pop and EDM, increase the frequencies up in the colorful EQ in the app. 

Although the outer part of this product is a little bit bigger than expected, it actually helps the earbuds have an excellent spatial resolution. This means that you can comfortably enjoy different instruments at different distances. 

Another feature that is also considered to be the shining star of Momentum True Wireless 2 is undoubtedly the active noise cancellation (ANC). There is no level to choose but just on or off. Honestly, it works quite great indoors; however, don’t expect it to clear away a jet engine groaning. Just bear in your mind that once this function is activated, the battery will plummet without a brake. 

There is one more feature that is quite interesting, namely hear-through, is implemented really smoothly on the product. This function allows users to hear their surrounding sounds via the onboard mics with the intensity available to choose. Moreover, its microphone system provides you with outstanding quality during any call, which is said to be a feature that is hardly seen in other similar products. 

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Review - Connectivity And App

The connection between the Momentum True Wireless 2 and a smartphone is rather simple and speedy. However,  the speed for Android smartphones is yet improved, even at that price. The convenient thing is users can connect both buds at once, meaning that they do not need to do the same thing twice. The app is actually slick without any complexity in use.

Notably, the earbuds are upgraded regularly to enhance the experience of users. For example, the product has received 2 major firmware updates that considerably decreased the consumption of the battery.  

But these earbuds, along with their app, is restricted to desktop versions, resulting in a lot of disappointment. Paying such a fortune for an entertainment item, customers obviously expect more than just a product with functions only available on smartphones. 

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Review - Battery Life

It is totally not exaggerated when saying that Momentum True Wireless 2 can easily beat any opponents in the battery battle with the achievement of working for 5 days without charge. The buds can be used continuously in five hours, and the charging case adds up to 21 hours of playtime. Particularly, it only takes the earbuds 15 minutes charged in the case to provide you with one hour of joy. 

Despite many glowing reviews listed above, there remain some things that might make you reconsider more carefully before making the final decision. Owing to the fabric shell used to cover the case, the earbuds are not charged wirelessly. According to Sennheiser, this feature was set up based on the feedback of their customers. However, it can still be a problem with several users. Additionally, the case is a little too big and stain-prone due to the fabric cover. And the most important thing is its frighteningly expensive price - around Rs. 24,990. 

Conclusion

In short, for those who have a deep pocket that filled with money and big-size ears, Sennheiser Momentum Wireless 2 seems to be a perfect choice for unforgettable audio experiences. Feel free to leave a comment below with our Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 Review!
