Wireless earbuds worth try
True, the incredibly popular wireless white earbuds are great . . . but are they the best? If I was going to pick another pair that gives them a run for the money, the nod goes to Sennheiser and the new Momentum True Wireless 2 earbuds.
And before I get into details, the Momentum True Wireless 2 earbuds are available in black and now in white.
Sennheiser doesn’t miss on headphones, earbuds or anything with sound quality.
And add the Momentum True Wireless 2 earbuds to the list as they delivered and exceeded any expectations I had for the compact, portable sound machines.
The second generation of Sennheiser’s Momentum true wireless series produces crystalclear audio from 7mm dynamic drivers. For days, I left the sound as it was right out of the box since it seemed perfect.
Then, with the built-in equaliser and Sennheiser’s smart control App (iOS and Android), I tuned the sound for more personalisation to my ears for the variety of my playlists. The personalised sound gives each user an option to make it what works best for them and goes so far as choosing which ear you tap to answer a call (microphones on both ears).
With Active Noise Cancellation technology on, much of the outside noise is blocked so you hear what you want.
Specifically, Sennheiser describes it as when greater situational awareness is needed, the Transparent Hearing feature lets you blend in outside ambient sound at a touch, so you can have natural conversations in comfort without needing to remove the earbuds.
The new true wireless earbuds are designed with comfort for allday use and have improved ergonomics, 2mm smaller size than the previous model.
Wearing them all day was no problem for me.
I finally took them out after seven hours of playback time to give the built in lithium-ion rechargeable batteries a charge in the portable USB-C charging case.
With the case, you’ll get a total of about 28 hours (seven from the earbuds, 21 more from the case) of on-the-go power to keep them playing. One-and-a-half hours of charging will give you a full charge or, if you need something faster, 10 minutes of charging will get you an hour-and-a-half of playback.
Touch controls on both earbuds are customisable to control handsfree calls, music selections, pausing and volume.
Voice assistants have a onetouch access. On the outside of the slick-looking earbuds, with a highquality metallic finish, is the iconic Sennheiser spin design. On the bottom side are gold-plated charging pins, which make contact with the charging case.
With auto-pause, just take the earbuds out of your ears and the music stops, put them back in and it starts again.
