Sennheiser - HD 4.40 Wireless Over-the-Ear Headphones - Black

I’ve been look for a set of headphones for awhile and one day I’m in Best Buy just to look around when I came upon this item. There was headphones there you can try out and put this one on...and that was it! Purchased them straight away! I love them!

Sure the ear covers have worn off . But they charge and very easy to connect. I use them on multiple devices including laptops and cellphone. The sound quality is great. Sure there are not as good as Bose . But you get your money whort. I say they hold up quite well .

I bought these headphones from Best Buy just over a week ago. I was looking for something that would produce decent sound without getting into the higher end, $200, headphones. My overall thoughts are that these are a great purchase for under $150. I will say, you're not going to get a big bass kick from these. If you're looking for a lot of heavy bass, then these are not the headphones for you. You will be disappointed by the bass if that is what you want. However, if you're looking for more of a genuine, crisp sound without spending over $150, then these are what I recommend. Pros: They have good battery life. I have used them all day and did not get any drop in performance from low battery, nor did I ever run out. You can tell that these are built with the Sennhesier quality, but they are still light weight. I personally think these have a better build quality than most Beats, or Sony headphones. If you're listening on a computer, these things can get LOUD. I have noticed however, that they are not as loud when used with a phone, but that was expected. The ability for both Bluetooth or corded experience is a must in over-the-ear headphones now, and Sennhesier delivers on that. The controls on these headphones are great. I come from most of my experience with controls being on in-ear headphones, so it was awesome to have an upgrade in control quality. Phone calls on the HD 4.40 are actually pretty great. I spent some time on the phone with some people, and it felt like they were in the room with me. The general consensus from the other side of the call was that the audio was fine. I think that they're comfortable, and I have big ears. I have such big ears that they don't quite fit over my entire ear, but they mostly do, and I still found them comfortable. I was able to wear them hours on end. Cons The Bluetooth, while good quality with no lag, lacks volume. That's pretty typical with headphones though. They are not noise canceling. This came as a suprise to me, because I assumed that any over-the-ear headphone over $100 should be noise canceling. These are not. I was pretty disappointed when I could still hear the meat-head at the gym grunting away, but I should have read the box first. Maybe it's my fault for not checking, but noise canceling should be a given at this price. Lack of bass. They're not hard hitters, which usually doesn't bother me, but it's lacking enough that I have to mention it. Final Thoughts: I bought these headphones for the purpose of going to the gym. With that said, they do the job and they don't break the bank doing it. I found their long battery life, comfort, and build quality to be worth the $150.00. I would recommend buying them if you're looking for an economy over-the-ear headphone. I will say however, that the carrying bag that comes with the headphones is too big. Headphones are more secure in a tighter bag, so I replaced mine. I would still have no worries about throwing these in a backpack without the carrying bag, which I did one day. They lived.

I've wanted to buy another Sennhesier headset for awhile, I've used my wired Momentums and my older hd558s for years and loved them for different reasons. I also have a pair of Bose Soundsport pulse Bluetooth headphones, Bose Soundtrue 2, and a cheaper pair of Bluetooth headphones called Taotronics an earbud design that I bought on Amazon for around 30 bucks. These headphones are on par with the comfort of my Bose Soundtrue 2 which were my most comfortable until these came along. Now that I've used high end Bluetooth earbuds from Bose I wanted to try a Sennhesier Bluetooth option and these just came out and I saw them at CES. What you expect first and foremost from Sennheiser is great sound quality and the HD4.40s certainly do not disappoint. Clear crisp high and mid with punchier bass than in my other Sennhieser headphones, hd558s are open back so bass isn't expected. These are warm I truly love the sound for listening to music of any type and they serve well for podcast as well. The build quality is solid and not the most premium but for the price it's expected and they do feel and look good and are strong, Sennhieser typically uses premium materials and the surfaces all feel great just not a lot of metal or leather. Although the leather earcups are better than my Bose and Sennhieser Momentums. I do like how they fold up to easily fit in my bag. Wireless is the main reason I bought these because I wanted a great sounding over ear headphone and I knew Sennhieser wouldn't let me down and they've blow me away. Range is great and the battery lasts for days with 24hr use advertised. If you are using them for bursts they are gonna last along time which is huge for me. I'd tell you to go buy these if you want a very nice sounding over ear Bluetooth headphone I can't see how these would let anyone down. I'll update if anything changes.

Considering the name I was hoping for something special as I've been looking to get away from Beats as I'm just not happy with the quality for the price we are all paying for them. Thus I decided to give these a try - though I will admit the deciding factor was they were on sale for $100! Even though I had no real intention of buying headphones that day, it's really hard to pass up what could possibly be a really good deal as the demo pair sounded pretty good up against the others (the few demos that actually worked anyway). Pros - Decent, clear sound, fair amount of bass, good battery life, comfortable enough for me to wear for extended amounts of time while I work outdoors. Cons - Volume - won't go above source volume. Headphone parts are pretty much made of plastic. Being such I don't see much longevity. Controls - while pretty much straightforward, aren't the easiest to use or distinguish. Headphone cups - as far as I know they aren't replaceable. In summary: For the cost spent I can't really complain. If I had paid full cost I would have been disappointed. I would deem these a starter set of headphones, for those looking for a decent sound on a budget. They are not by any means a high end pair despite the name...

Let me start of my saying I am a long-time Senheiser fan. Many years ago I chose Sennheiser because I couldn't afford Stax. So when it came time to buy a set of BT headphones, I was already leaning towards the 4.40BT's. But sound quality is more important to me than brand loyalty, so I compared them to other cans from Sony, JBL, Beats, and Bose. After comparing them all, I found that I liked the 4.40BT's the best for the price. The Sony's and Bose headphones sounded great, but cost twice as much. The JBL's has good sound and great base, but the 4.40BT's sounded better across the entire range. And I just don't like the sound of the Beats. To me they sound flat with extra base. After using them for a week, I am still very happy. I am using them with my LG Stylo phone mostly. The headphones instantly connected to my phone without any issues. I like the fold up sides to make it more compact for carrying, and I find them very comfortable with extended use. My wife also likes the fact that I can listen to them in bed and she cannot hear the music from them. For my first run I got more than 25 hours out of the battery. If I had one suggestion for Sennheiser, it would be to replace the plastic joints with aluminum joints. I am having no problem with mine, nor do I expect any. But this seems like the weak point in the design.

Purchased these to eliminate distractions when I need to focus at work. Now it comes in handy working remote with WebEx, especially with the built in Mic. Battery life is excellent, I can easily go more than a full day without charging. Only thing to be aware -- this is PASSIVE noise canceling, not active, and that's fine for me. Look at other models (like the HD 4.50BTNC version of these) if you want Active Noise Canceling. The headphones are very comfortable to wear. Have connected to the following types of devices: Windows Laptop, Manjaro Linux Desktop, Android Phone, Android Tablet. As long as you can enable A2DP Sink in Linux, you'll get good quality.

I'm a headphone guy. I've bought and sold and bought and sold and bought and sold headphones a billion times over the past decade, and I will say that these are some of the most well balanced cans I've had. Comfortable, bass kicks but isn't overwhelming, the mids don't overwhelm, and the highs aren't tinny. Solid battery life. If you want a super comfy pair of wireless headphones, but don't wanna shell out 300 for Bose, and you aren't concerned about active noise cancelling, these are rad. Put them on your head and use your ears on them.
