Sennheiser's Momentum Wireless prove to be a knockout combination of reasonably effective noise-cancelling, luxurious build and epic sound quality. They're perhaps not the best noise-cancelling headphones out there, but in terms of sound quality, they prove to be an irresistible pair of headphones.

Rapid, forceful and detailed sound; Fit comfortably; Look and feel the money’s-worth;

Quite big; Others cancel noise even more effectively;

Sennheiser continues to refine its high-end noise-cancelling headphone offerings with the Momentum 3 Wireless, and it should come as no surprise that they're the finest pair in the series. They offer one-touch access to your phone's voice assistant, a sound signature that delivers natural bass depth and high-frequency clarity, and strong (if not best-in-class) active noise cancellation (ANC). Generally speaking, there's a lot to like here, but at $399.95, the Momentum 3 Wireless are priced identically to the Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700, which deliver the best ANC you can buy. Design The circumaural (over-ear) Momentum 3 Wireless headphones come in black, with a soft-touch finish on the outer earcup panels and leather and metal details on the large, eye-catching headband adjustor. The earpads are generously cushioned with memory foam beneath the leather, and the general fit is exceptionally comfortable once you get the right tension on the headband. Along the side panel o...

There's plenty to like about Sennheiser's Momentum 3 Wireless headphones, but they join a field crowded with good noise-cancelling options.

Powerful bass depth and crisp, detailed hghs; Comfortable, stylish design; Strong ANC with transparent listening mode; Single-button voice assistant integration

Expensive; Sound signature not for those seeking accuracy; App and Alexa integration can be a little buggy

Worth the premium price. These headphone have such clarity and depth of audio. Bass is alright but I wouldn't except it to be extreme for a wireless set of headphones. Sennheiser have always been my #1 choice for headphones and I can confirm these Momentum's do not disappoint. Pros: > I can barely hear anything with max volume + noise cancelling (Great for drowning out sounds of people) > Battery life lasts forever I've gotten several days on max settings of use. > Bluetooth Range is insane (I've walked across my house without my phone and never had issues) > USB Type C Charging (Charges fast as well) > Can be used wired or wirel...view more

Great sound. Slightly sticky pads, but I would expect that to fade quickly. BUT, there's literally no power button that I can find. And it stays connected to my device, so it drains the battery over a day or so. Even when absolutely not using them. Who thought that no power button was a good idea? Seriously. Cannot recommend because it will just keep draining the battery over and over.

Comfortable and beautiful For those who cannot find power off button you just need to press play button for a few seconds and it sleeps Only problem is Bluetooth mode sound quality not as good as I expected

These superb-sounding noise-cancellers only serve to further enhance Sennheiser’s momentum in the headphone market These superb-sounding noise-cancellers only serve to further enhance Sennheiser’s momentum in the headphone market

Energetic, rhythmic presentation, Convenient usability features, Effective noise cancellation

Uncompetitive battery life

Packed with smarts and high-end features, these great-looking over-ear cans are made from high-end materials and are worth considering based on the design alone. The sound is great, too, although the boomy bass won't be to everyone's tastes and the competition from Bose and Sony is now tougher than...

Stylish looks and comfortable fit, Battery life lives up to 17-hour promises, Unfold and fold to switch on and off, Varying degrees of noise-cancelling/audio transparency

Auto-pause function is too sensitive, Battery still not quite as epic as competitors, Bass is a little boomy, Not the cheapest noise-cancelling cans

There’s a lot to love about the Sennheiser Momentum 3 Wireless; they sound fantastic, look good, and are easily customizable thanks to an app. However, they’re let down by a measly 17-hour battery life and their high price.

Brilliant audio quality, Cool design, Customizable settings

Battery life isn’t great, More expensive than rivals

Let me get this out of the way; I'm not an audiophile. Granted, I really love good audio. I do have a pretty good ear and I really enjoy music. However, I don't believe that there are a lot of objective ways to test headphones.

High quality construction, Great, balanced audio, Excellent fit and finish, Elegant looks and feel, Super comfortable, Works well with Android devices, Multi-modes of noise cancellation (Max, Anti Wind, Anti Pressure), Equalizer through app saves to headphones (not just through software), Tile...

Noise cancellation modes require use of app (can’t be switched directly through hardware)

The Sennheiser MOMENTUM 3 Wireless headphones build upon the Momentum line while retaining the same grade-A build quality and style. Connection quality is excellent in part due to the Bluetooth 5.0 firmware and an array of high-quality Bluetooth codec support.

Bluetooth 5, aptX LL, aptX, and AAC, Effective noise cancellation, Sound quality, Excellent build quality, Multiconnect, fast autoconnect
