Customer Ratings & Reviews

Pretty average sound quality, average fit and comfort. Nothing stands out, but is bad either. Just an average set of headphones.

Extremely comfortable, cushy headphones. Excellent noise cancelling and sound clarity. Long-lasting charges.

On my iPhone 16 had to turn the volume up to 90 to normal sound level. The sound is good but honestly about the same as my cheap $40 Amazon headphones. Ended up returning it.

I have several Sennheiser headphones and earbuds. My usual is True Sport earbuds and also their EPOS gaming headsets. I also have Jubilee wired headphones connected to my home stereo system. I really like their quality and the sound quality is always very good. They recently introduced the Accentum wireless headphones with active noise cancelling for a budget friendly alternative to the Momentum and other comparable units. Personally I find them not as heavy as some of my other headphones and they are very comfortable. They fit over the ear with soft foam pads and a supple covering. The head band is adjustable and applies enough pressure to keep them securely in place during normal use without being too tight. I find some headphones have too much tension and can be uncomfortable to wear for an extended time. Bluetooth connectivity is straightforward. Pairing is same as any device and if you download the Sennheiser Smart Control smartphone app you gain a lot more capability. With Smart Control you can flip between of noise canceling/ambient and adjust an equalizer with pre-sets or customize to your preference. Basic controls on the headset are easy to use albeit the buttons are a bit small for my big fingers. I’d much rather see a volume wheel rather than buttons to differentiate between the controls. The multifunction button jumps between media play and phone call answer/hold/end. It’s easy to switch between active noise cancelling and ambient noise by double pressing the power button, single pressing the power button gives you mic mute and also activates Siri and/or Google Assistant. The sound quality is very good even for a budget friendly offering but I wouldn’t expect anything less from Sennheiser. The 50 hour battery life is more than enough for a long trip and you can gain a 10 hours on a quick charge making this a really good economical choice at under $180. The only negative I have is I wish they had included a carrying case or bag would have been nice to make it a bit more backpack friendly.

Yippee it works very well and i am glad. I can listen to the tv without waking my wife

The first thing I noticed when I put this headset on was how tight they fit. The second thing I noticed was how great they sound. I was immediately impressed by the clarity of vocals without any tinniness. Yet you can still hear lows and highs that are often strangled when vocal ranges are emphasized. Positives - Excellent sound, vocals are especially clear. - Callers can hear me just fine, even outdoors. - USB-C connection can be used for charging as well as for wired listening. The included cable, however, is a USB-C to USB-A and would have been better if it were USB-C to USB-C. - With the optional app, you can adjust the equalizer across 5 bands, which is nothing special. But the equalizer does show how many dBs you’re adjusting per band, which is nice for advanced stats. - The app’s equalizer has the usual presets for rock, classical, etc… Or you can create your own. There is even a quick toggle specifically for listening to podcasts. - Noise cancellation is decent though it seems most of the noise reduction is due to the tight fit rather than the ANC tech itself. Negatives - Fits very tight, probably to form a good seal. It borders on uncomfortable for me, an average sized guy who wears glasses. They are, however, very lightweight. - There’s an LED that flashes when you turn the headphones off or on, but the light does not stay on when the headphone is on. That means you can’t tell at a glance if it’s on or off. There is an auto-off setting in the app in case you’re worried about using up the battery. - Turning on the Bass Boost in the app really muddies the sound so I would leave that off. - No carrying case, not even a simple cloth bag to prevent scratching. Overall I give these 4.5 stars for their excellent sound and value. The fit is tight but I am getting used to them.

Being a recording artist, I’m very familiar with using headphones. Clear highs and solid lows. Good set.

I am an old school progressive rock lower . Thank you to Sennheiser for making such a beautiful tool to play the music files from my mobile phone .

Honestly, terrible value. Audio quality is very average, bluetooth functionality seems very basic, build quality feels like an $80 pair of headphones, not $180. I've have higher end wired Sennheiser products, such as the HD650s, and it's literally night and day across the board. It's like they've traded great drivers for extremely basic wireless functionality. I've always loved Sennheiser and virtually every product I've purchased from them, but these were quite the disappointment.

Good! I got them on sale, and for the price, they’re very manageable. Just make sure you EQ them in the app.

Pretty good sound quality just not loud enough for me

Good,..............................................

Tl;dr Sennhieser’s “value” priced wireless headphones deliver on excellent sound quality, but come up short in noisy environments. All day comfort and battery make it perfect for office or home office use. Sennhieser is a legend in the headphone industry. They made the very first pair of “audiophile” quality headphones I got in 1987. They’ve continued to innovate and to challenge Bose and Sony for the best sounding headphones on the market. The Accentum headphones are a true child of this legacy. The sound quality is natural and well balanced. While slightly bass heavy out of the box, it’s easily tweaked with the available app. They’re comfortable to wear for an extended period of time and do a decent job of blocking out office sounds. I also took them outside when I was mowing the lawn. As good as they sound, the advertised noise cancellation leaves much to be desired. It barely muffled the sound of the mower. I even heard planes going overhead. Both sounds have been blocked by the Jabra Connect 5t I often wear when doing yard work. On the other hand, these are half the price of Sennhieser’s Momentum headphones which many reviewers widely praised for their noise canceling ability. This seems to be a matter of “You get what you pay for.” For my ears, the excellent reproduction of all kinds of music is well worth the cost regardless of their noise canceling ability. Battery life is rated at 50 hours. I did not come close to drawing down the battery during the time I was using the headphones. They connect with Bluetooth by default. They’ll use the APTx standard, if your phone supports it (which my OnePlus 11 does). Other than wired, this will give you the best quality. The Accentum headphones will also work as wired headphones on devices with a USB-C output and a double ended USB-C cable. They sounded great coming through my phone and my PC. They did not sound good coming from my iPad, so I suspect that may be an Apple issue. Paired with Bluetooth, they still sounded good. Given the long battery life, I can’t imagine when will be the next time I try to plug them into my phone. Sennhieser also decided to make these a good headset. Once again, they’re not the best at noise cancellation. However, in a quiet / office environment, they picked up my voice very well and callers could hear me clearly. It was very nice not having to switch to something else when I have a meeting to attend. Two things which would make these a little better: 1) The controls cannot be customized, unlike many headphones and ear buds on the market. Even with the app installed, the only change I can make is with the equalizer. There are a couple of other gimmicky features which are only enabled if you opt in to their marketing. 2) While they’re comfortable, I’d like the ability to tighten them on my head when I’m outside. Several times when I turned my head, they pulled back a bit and let in the rest of the world. It would be nice to have more flexibility in how well they hold my head.

babied them, and they still randomly stopped working properly after only a couple of months, cant return either.

If only have 100 something get it i guess, kinda mid

It worked OK for a month or so, after that, noise appeared in left cup, making it now unlistenable.

Seemed heavy and sound wasn’t too noticeably different

I love music. Having been a musician since childhood, anything that has to do with music interests me. Whether it’s a turntable, a guitar, a movie, or a pair of headphones, I am into finding and experimenting with things that make wonderful sounds. All that said, headphones are up at the top of my list because they are the tool that actually delivers the sound to your ears, and the Sennheiser Accentum headphones are an excellent choice. I’ll start by saying that there are no downsides to these headphones. If you need a logo on the side to make you feel better about the brand you are wearing, your priorities are misplaced. There is no visible branding on these headphones which makes them stealth. They are extremely lightweight, yet feel very durable and well made at the same time. In fact, this is one of my favorite things about these headphones. I own several pairs of over-the-ear headphones and these are the lightest, making them the easiest to wear for long periods of time and producing minimal crown fatigue. The sound quality is what you would expect from Sennheiser. I have known the brand for years being a musician and have used studio monitor headphones by Sennheiser for a variety of applications, including guitar monitoring, mixing, and mastering. The sound is crisp and clear. The bass may not be head shaking, but is by far enough for me personally and I actually prefer a more realistic response with my headphones. I want to hear my music the artist (or myself) envisioned, and these headphones do just that. If you want to shake your brain and bones with sub bass beats, perhaps these aren't the best choice. For users that want clean crisp sound with just the right amount of highs and lows, the Accentum headphones will get you there all day. These have great stereo separation and all instruments are clear no matter where they are placed in the mix. Bluetooth pairing is quick and easy, with no hassle or fuss. The app is a great addition for those who want to select a different EQ curve for different listening environments. It is well-designed and looks great, and it does all of the expected tasks of customizing your listening experience. The noise canceling works really well in all tests I have tried so far. Whether I am in the grocery store, or my own home, I can completely tune out of the chatter if I prefer. All in all, these are perfect for my needs. They are a great size. They are light and comfortable for long listening sessions. The battery seemingly lasts forever. The ear cups fold flat on your chest when not in use. The sound quality is excellent. They have a minimalist design aesthetic. I really can’t find anything negative to say other than I would always like to see a clam shell type case included with all over-the-ear headphones for tossing into a backpack, etc. I highly recommend checking these out at your local Best Buy if you can!

The Sennheiser - ACCENTUM wireless Bluetooth headphones offer a high quality listening experience. The headphones provide active noise cancelling that can be activated or disabled. The ear pads are large and comfortable and adjust to almost anyones head size. The sound is wonderful and the Sennheiser app provides a large selection of preset equalization presets. The app also provides the user the opportunity to adjust these presets and also the ability to create your own series of presets. Pairing was simple, just follow the instructions in the quickstart guide and you can be listening to your favorite music within ten minutes or so. If I could make one change, it would be to increase the maximum volume output of the headphones. Don't get me wrong, they have good volume, but there are times with certain songs you just want to get that extra bit of sound coming through and these are not designed to get to that ear damaging level. Actually, that probably a good thing. The bass is nice, smooth and clean. I havn't picked up on much, if any distortion, from these headphones regardless of the type of music I have listened to. These are nice, clear, concise and have a nice ability to provide bass at just the right level. I do with they were just a little louder, but they do sound really good.

Great sound, decent noise canceling, quite comfortable. It's a bit small for my head so it hurts after a while and the lowest volume is still a bit too loud at times. But overall very decent set of headphones!
