Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless Over-Ear Black

The Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless is a closed-back Bluetooth over-ear headphone that combines 42 mm drivers, adaptive noise cancelling and up to 60 hours of battery life into an audiophile lifestyle headphone - here in Black. It's built for anyone who doesn't want to give up sound and stamina on the go.

Why the Momentum 4 Wireless?

Up to 60 hours of battery is a statement even in this class - your week goes by before you even think about charging, and five minutes at the port gives you another four hours. The adaptive noise cancelling adjusts to noise automatically, while transparency mode brings it back with a tap. Four beamforming microphones mean the person on the other end of your call no longer needs an annoying "Can you hear me?".

What you hear

A dynamic, clear sound image from 42 mm drivers with the characteristic Momentum character. Via the Smart Control app you dial in exactly what suits your music using the equalizer, sound modes and Sound Personalization - from richer bass to more neutral.

Who is the Momentum 4 Wireless for?

For frequent travellers, commuters and anyone looking for long, comfortable sessions with strong ANC. Straight talk: this is a wireless lifestyle headphone, not an open-back reference headphone for the listening room. aptX and aptX Adaptive only play if your source supports them - on iPhone it runs AAC, which also sounds very good.

Our verdict

A lifestyle flagship with a marathon battery, strong ANC and adjustable sound - plus feather-light and travel-ready. We at HD Zürisee in Wädenswil are happy to help you work out whether the Momentum 4 or an in-ear suits your everyday life better.

Frequently asked questions

How long does the Momentum 4 Wireless battery last?

Up to 60 hours with active ANC - a top figure in this class. The fast-charge function gives you around four more hours after five minutes at the USB-C port, so you're not left without music even right before departure.

Does the Momentum 4 Wireless have noise cancelling?

Yes. The hybrid adaptive ANC adjusts noise cancellation automatically to your surroundings. With a tap you switch to transparency mode and hear announcements or conversations without taking the headphones off.

Which Bluetooth codecs does the Momentum 4 support?
