Sennheiser - Momentum True Wireless 2

I'm in the exact same boat as you! 1-2 hours is all I get out of my MTW2s. I recently purchased the MTW4 and the technic 100s I will get them between the 12-14th and I can report back with my thoughts if you'd like?

Ok thanks. My sennheisr movementum 2 just broke and now I can't sleep (I listen to podcasts to get to sleep) but I also like listening to very minute details in music. I might just need 2 pairs, one for sleep and one of entertainment.

Just wanna weigh in i had the mtw2s and they have given me 3 perfect years. My 1 year old grabbed one out of my ear and slammed it down in a porcelain tile floor from 6 feet up, and so now that ear has a connectivity issue and will disconnect if i angle my head wrong but when it's connected it sounds perfect. I ordered the mtw4s as a replacement, im hopeful they'll last longer (ill keep the kids away lol)

I started with the momentum tws 2, gave up after 3rd warranty ( one of the earbuds died every ~3 months), got the momentum tws 3 instead when it came out, that one lasted maybe 4 months. I wish you that these new ones are better quality. I switched to sonys, I have 6000+ hours in my first pair and they are still like new ( except a slightly reduced battery life, which is acceptable after 1k+ charge cycles), which is more than the cumulative hours I had in all my sennheisers, never looking back.

I’ve had a few gens of the momentum buds including This one, most tend to be buggy and die for random reasons but while they work they’re great! I still have my momentum 2’s and they go hard, both 3 and 4 had battery issues in one bud. You CAN crack them open and replace the battery pretty cheap but honestly I just send em back for a refund get my money back 9 - 15 months later

I have had a few sets and so far so good, i had a set of elite 4 actives which i bought because of the waterproof rating, i wear them literally to go to the sauna where i sit for hours, then have a shower with them in then go into the plunge pool (all the way under) then back into the sauna. i do this daily for about an hour or 2 they lasted about 9 months of that which i thought was pretty impressive honestly, most other earbuds die pretty fast in those environments. they technically still work but they have started getting a little funky in the software department. I have a pair of elite 7 active which i use as sleep buds because theyre low profile and again, no issues, sometimes the process of updating is a little weird but like, it does it... eventually, By comparison i got a pair of XM4's and they had something wrong with the speaker that made it sound like there was a ringing whenever i moved my head, coughed etc. Sony gave me the run around on those even though its a well documented issue I have also just sent back a pair of Momentum TW3 because one earbud just like, died, wont charge any more, those also had a really dicky case where if the buds got just a little bit of ear crud on them they wouldnt charge - again a well known and documented issue, all you had to do was clean the buds and theyd work again but like, i shouldnt have to play roulette once every 2 - 3 weeks on whether my buds will work. Last pair ill comment on is Momentum TW2's, they were pretty good and i still use them but when i work out in them, sometimes one ear will like, lose power, not totally, its still playing but theres no bass, the volume is low, then randomly 2 - 3 mins later they go normal again then they die again and repeat... it was really weird. TLDR: Jabra have been good to me in the 3 pairs i have owned, by comparison every time i spend 400 - 500 on a pair of buds (AUD) they have been pretty fuckin trash..

Had two sets of Senheisser Momentum 2 and both stop functioning at different times. Now, I bougth Nothing Ear and the noise reduction is meh. When listening music can hear people talking. I don't like it.

I wish they fit me better 😭 All three previous generations messed up my ears

Nothing serious, just really painful for my ear shape. The only ones I kept are the second generation. I can bear the discomfort and pain. The others caused almost immediate pain after only a few minutes of use.

Long time Sennheiser fan, MTW2 was fantastic. Two pairs of MTW4 went faulty. Sound for audio is great, but terrible phone call issues and cracking issue which a lot of people have reported. Changed for B&W and no issues.

I use a pair of sennheiser momentum true wireless (2nd gen still lol) I got them when they came out and still going strong till this day. Yeah I’ll admit they are a little bulky for the monitor size but they fit in the ear really snug and won’t fall even with sweat. Good battery life. Fast charging. Pretty good ANC (imo second to Sony). The latest gen is a little pricey but I know you can still find the 2nd gen ones for cheaper.

I still love my QC2. From 2007, I think? Ear cushions replaced twice. But I rarely travel with them anymore because of the size. For travel I now mostly bring my Sennheiser Momentum TW2.

I went through a similar process with the TW2's. The left earbud would cut in and out and eventually stop working 3 different times, the last time being a month past the 2 year warranty. I will give it up to Sennheiser for always replacing them after I covered the shipping back to them each time. I now have the TW3's which I don't use often as I now use Airpods Pro 2's. I actually purchased the extended warranty on those just in case I had the same trouble as with the Sennheisers. But, it's been a year and a half and I haven't had any issues. The sad part is that I own quite a few pairs of other Sennheiser headsets and they have all been rock solid. It is just the earbuds that have proven to be highly unreliable. The logical conclusion is that I was hard on them and caused the issues. But I take care of my stuff. Hence all the other headphones working just fine over many years and the Airpods holding up.

Sennheiser Momentum 3 TW. Before that, I had the Momentum 2. Sound quality is out of this world, and the 3's connect so much faster than the 2's. Only issue is that there's no multi-point. But, I'll definitely getting the TW 4's soon

I've had Sennheiser Momentum TW 2, 3 and 4. In fact, I bought the 3's twice. Sound quality is fantastic, and didn't have any issues until the TW4, when people started complaining that they couldn't hear me. Apparently, was having some mic issues. Then, they would disconnect in the middle of a call. So, I finally decided to try something new. Got the Sony XM5,s about 2 weeks ago and couldn't be more happy. They sound good (not Sennheiser good), but the mic quality has been on point, and they don't disconnect. So, for right now, they'll do

Still using my Momentum 2s.

Senn on 4 now? I had a pair of 1s but they kept draining while in case. Complained and they sent a pair of 2s and been fairly happy with them. But the anc is weak and pass through needs some filter for the white noise.

I have Sennheiser Momentum TW 2 for daily use for my phone and Im never gonna betray Sennheiser, guys really know their job and make good quality products. Ill aim for Momentum 4 as soon as my budget allows me to

I have them and loved them when I first got them. For me they have been great buds for a the sport of weightlifting and going on runs (even with light rain). I am partial to the Sennheiser sound after starting out with the MTWS 2. Starting out with those buds after AirPods Pro 2 I wasn’t a fan of the ANC. The ANC in these is better than the 2s, the app allows for more customization, and anti wind is useful to me outside. I wish they got a little louder, but I may appreciate this in the long run. My biggest gripe about them is that I started working at a job about 9 months ago where I keep one bud in for 8 hours a day. This routinely has been the left bud for 5-6 hours and the right for 2. I noticed recently that the left bud is quieter than the right at this point and I’m going to file a warranty claim on them.  Added bonus: I produce music and I have zero latency using these on the go with my DAW

I haven’t noticed a big problem. When I run at the gym I can’t hear my feet on the treadmill. When I’m outside I can’t hear hear cars with enough notice to get out of the way.  I’d say I use mine more than other people, so I’m not upset about the wear. The call quality has been really good for me as well. My main thing is that I like the sound profile that Sennheiser has and I’d rather have a good sounding earbud than something that entirely blocks outside noise. I’m probably going to purchase a second pair since they’re cheap on Amazon right now for when I send them off.

Currently, I'm using the Sennheiser MTW2, which is what I compared them to mostly in terms of audio quality and features. My main drivers have been Shure SE215's/SE535's hooked up to a DAC, but I use the wireless earbuds for convenience when I'm travelling. Note that I didn't try the Technics for very long. I tried them at a noisy show floor, using my Sennheisers there would've been pointless considering the mediocre ANC. In the end that might be more important than hearing minor differences when the circumstances are optimal.

I had the Ip7 and as a truck driver they had about a 3hr battery life after 1 year they had some troubles connecting once in a while or one wouldn't turn on the driver. 2yrs in and the batter life was down to about 2 hrs on a full charge. Year 3 they died before we got there the left one stopped being loud and wouldn't match the volume of the right one just after the 2nd year mark. So longevity wise they were not the ticket. This all said I can't find head phones that would match the sound quality I got from them. The senheisser true wireless 1 and 2 were good but not better, Jabra elite 7 are ok but still not better? Beat studio buds plus I find to be very very underwhelming and would take the Jabra over them. Looking into the sonys or the bang and olfsen ones not sure what to do either. I use headphones for up to 12 hrs a day so I am hard on them and have killed multiple different ones.

I have a dedicated Plantronics headset for voice calls. So far, used both Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless and Bose QC Ultra, both are quite bad for voice calls.

I can help answer. The denon pearl pro are the best sounding in that list, and also now on sale for $150. I had the sony wh-1000xm5 and returned them. The bass rolled over into the mids too much and instrument separation was terrible. I had momemtum 2 and 3s, had two pairs or 2, and one pair of the 3, all had the same battery failure. I'm sure the momemtum 4 sound good but I'm not wasting my time or money again on sennheiser. So far the denon are the best sounding earbuds I've listened to. The closest thing I've found that sounds like my open back headphones

Would agree that the AirPods Pro 2 are your best bet. I like the sound from the Bose QC Ultra Earbuds but every 1-2 months one bud loses sound and I have to pair them again. So I don't recommend them. I have Sony WF1000XM4 and like them a lot. But if you are going to get those wait for the release of the XM6 this Fall and then get the XM5 cheap. The other I really like are the True Momentum Buds by Sennheiser. But for iPhones the AirPod really works.

I use a set of Sony WF-1000XM5 wireless buds which are great for me on Windows / Teams; also had some Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless buds which were fine too but prefer the Sony's myself

It is all about fit.  But the elite Jabras, Sennheiser momentum true wireless and ofc AirPods Pro2 are good.  

Mine work fine idk

Gonna leave my frustration here. Going through the exact BS with my 2nd pair. Now working on an RMA for a 3rd pair that I know will fail with the same issue as my previous two. Initially a loud screech blowing my eardrum. Then a crackling like you have a car window open going 80mph. Then the headphone completely fails; no sound. Wish I could do a return, or a justifiable charge-back, because this song and dance will continue until "oops, you're outside the warranty period, thanks for the $270".

Yeah, I had the Momentum's. They did fit ok. But the App and my phone just did NOT get along. They would constantly disconnect. Maybe if no one else comes up with anything else, I will give those a try again. Thank you!

Maybe I should've sold them better but I didn't see any other comments. They stick in my ears great, great sound, great touch responsiveness, very impressive noise cancelling. I believe for the price they're hard to beat. I have Sennheiser momentum true wireless and they're my favorites but also $300, my Galaxy buds FE ,I don't feel like I'm missing much at work or doing stuff around the house.

Hard disagree. Best sound quality there is, and has worked flawlessly since I bought them in may. I use them daily for 1-3h. I also prefer them to the m4's when im out and about, because of the largely improved ANC

Mine won't connect the left bud when I take it out by itself...really pissing me off. I'll be using the right bud and take the left out the case and the led light just stays fucking Red. I have factory reset and updated. They are a week old .

I've had mtw 1 2 3 and now the 4s. Think I might bite the bullet and get the bower wilkins pi8. So pissed off.

Sennheiser Momentum TWS. It even fits perfectly in the pouch that came with the deck, and fits snugly in the space behind the elastic at the bottom of the case.

I’m not sure on what version they’re on, but my Sennheiser Momentum TW’s are going strong and are class for everything - travel and running included. I even washed them accidentally and still worked perfectly fine afterwards. Pricey but definitely worth buying for a lot as opposed to repeatedly buying cheap.

I know this is a "buy" thread but wanted to save you from pouring money into Sennheiser Momentum any model. Very reliably unreliable....having two pairs replaced under warranty and still failed on the third.

Go for senheisser momentum

Thats why we have Wavelet. But the closer the better. Some of the best I've owned and tried are Beoplay EQ, B&W p8i and Sennheiser Momentum.

Sound: Sennheiser's Momentum lineup, Denon Perl Pros, Technics AZ80/AZ100, and B&W Pi8, in that order (taking into account Sound Personalization and AAT are being used). Everything else on the market, from the typical brands, falls below that line -- APP2, XM5, Bose QC Ultra, etc. Longevity, having tested dozens of these sets, the AirPods Pros are likely to outlast most of the other brands (my first and second gens are still charging well without any discernible issues). I've had battery and charging issues with the XM4s and XM5s, Sennheiser's MTW3 (MTW4 hasn't been on the market long enough to know whether there are any battery longevity issues); Denon is already showing serious battery degradation issues; Technics are in the charging issue camp as well (one or both earbuds often do not charge and need to be reseated often, similar to the Sony's); Pi8 has intermittent connectivity issues. The list goes on. There are outliers like the JLAB Epic Lab Edition, which have excellent battery life and seem to hold up well over time. Surprisingly, these are some of the best sounding and longest lasting buds on the market, for sometimes half the price of competitors. It can't compete with the top brands on tuning, but it gets damn close for the price. At some point, chasing sound quality (and longevity) begs the question, should you just sacrifice wireless connectivity and choose a traditional IEM? Despite owning most of the current premium earbud lineup, I find myself recommending and often daily driving the Epic Labs -- just due to the convenience of the battery life alone. And if that battery starts to degrade, there's enough overhead where I could still potentially get a good amount of time out of them before the issues are untenable.

Person who actually listens to music here, and cares about headphones. Technics AZ100s are absolutely stellar - get them. Oppo Enco X3s (when you are able to buy them in the UK) are cheaper, but absolutely superb. The X2s are some of my favourite ever earbuds. Sennheiser momentums are also very good. Bose quiet comforts are decent but quality wise don't keep up with the above three. Airpods are overpriced and are whitegirl apple product bait. The Sony earbuds noise cancelling is weak and the case battery fails after 12 months for a lot of people.

Sennheiser momentum, on offer now for less than £200, were 300 when they came out. Theyre somehow better than my big bose quietcomfort pair

I find them pretty comfortable, actually. Personally, I prefer them to the Sennheiser ones. They don't disappear in your ear quite like Airpods or Pixel Buds, so there's a slight pressure feeling at first. But with the Sennheiser TW, I actually had earaches, so these are way better for me." Edit: i Hope i understood your question correctly, my English isn't that good

Sennheiser True Wireless Buds and QCY Ailybuds Pro+.. I prefer the Qcys because they are semi inear which fits better to ne and the nc is working nice for that budget earbud. Also the Call quality is better than sennheisers in my opinion ✌🏼
