A: AnswerThe battery life of these headphones is 60 hours.This question and answer was generated by AI based on customer and product data.- A: AnswerI currently have both. My guess is that they now used the new grippy silicone head band and the sennheiser denim on top that it reduced manufacturing costs. Also it doesn’t have the metal sliders for the headband and now clicks which is a pro imo. the sliders always moved out of place so it never was perfect after 10 minutes of moving with the headset. They did overhaul with the new tech though. Worth the upgrade if you’re looking into it

Q: Questioncan i use it as a wired headphone? i hate wireless headphones.(8 answers)
A: AnswerYou can use it as wired but that would defeat the purpose of buying wireless headphones..... If you don't like Wireless i suggest the HD560 wired Senheiser headphones. Amazing quality and super comfortable at half the price. They aren't nose cancelling though.Answered by Rick

Momentum 4 Wireless: Sound That Convinced Me
As a long-time devotee of Bose accessories, I was hesitant to stray from my comfort zone. However, after more than a month with the Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless headphones, I'm happy to report that I'm a convert. These headphones deliver a compelling combination of superb sound quality, effective noise cancellation, and impressive comfort, making them a worthy contender in the premium headphone market. A Bose User's Perspective: I've been using the Momentum 4 Wireless for 8 hours a day for meetings, music, and everything in between. The comfort level is outstanding. I can wear them for my entire workday without any discomfort. This is a huge plus for me, as someone who spends a lot of time on conference calls and listening to music. Pros: Superb Sound Quality: Sennheiser's audio expertise shines through. The sound is well-balanced, with clear highs, rich mids, and punchy bass. Whether I'm listening to classical music or podcasts, the audio is immersive and enjoyable. Effective Noise Cancellation: The adaptive noise cancellation effectively silences the world around me, allowing me to focus on my work or lose myself in my music. The ability to adjust the level of noise cancellation is a welcome feature. Long Battery Life: With up to 60 hours of playtime, I can go days without needing to recharge. This is a significant advantage over my previous headphones. Comfortable Fit: The lightweight design and plush earcups provide exceptional comfort, even during extended use. Intuitive Controls: The touch controls are responsive and easy to use, allowing me to adjust volume, playback, and noise cancellation seamlessly. Cons: Design: While functional, the design is less stylish compared to the previous generation and my Bose headphones. App Experience: The Sennheiser Smart Control app can be a bit finicky at times. I've experienced occasional connectivity issues. No Folding Design: The lack of a folding design makes them a bit less compact for travel. Overall: The Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless headphones have won me over with their exceptional sound quality, effective noise cancellation, and remarkable comfort. While the design and app could be improved, the overall performance is outstanding. If you're looking for a premium pair of headphones and prioritize audio quality and comfort, these are definitely worth considering. Recommendation: If you value sound quality, comfort, and long battery life, the Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless are an excellent choice. Even for a die-hard Bose fan like myself, these headphones deliver a compelling experience that's hard to beat.

Almost perfect : Pls hear me out !
My review is based on the comparison with the Bose QC45 as I needed a clear winner and see which one to keep. At first, I got the Bose Qc 45 while they were on sale for $229 on Black Friday, and got the momentum for $300. I take the subway every day going to work, and that's where I tested both QC 45 and Momentum 4. There are my conclusions: When it comes to the Bose QC 45: The comfort is just DIVINE (Piccolo approved ;-) ) ! the Bose QC 45 is SO LIGHT that I easily forget that I have them! I have no problem wearing them for an entire day without any fatigue! they are that light and comfortable and you barely remember that you wear them and are my always go-to! The sound quality is FANTASTIC (I just wish it had more bass), the EQ won't bring a drastic change but it's a welcome feature. The ANC is just TOP TIER as someone who takes the NYC subway every day, I always enjoy my music and podcast while on the train. Transparency is Great but not airpod max level. Now let's talk about the Momentum 4: The reason why I bought the Momentum 4 is that I needed my sound to be a bit louder and I wanted more bass without paying the price of the Sony XM5, moreover, when it comes to calls, the Bose 45 is not the best when you are in a noisy/ windy environment (subway and street) and I got quickly frustrated on calls as people would constantly have a hard time listening to me. The Momentum 4 has AMAZING SOUND QUALITY (better than the Sony XM5 but that's for you to appreciate) ! The bass is crazy, all of that without touching the EQ (when you play with it, it's even better) !!! The comfort is close to the Bose QC45, however the clamping force is a bit strong vs the bose, and sometimes you will need to take them off to relieve your head of the pressure, but Bose stays way ahead in terms of comfort ( as I said Piccolo approved) and can be worn for an entire day without fatigue ( for me ) , and the call quality with the momentum 4 is just GREAT and very close to the Sony XM5, I made phone calls while in the subway with trains passing by and people on the other side of the line had no problem listening to me (what a relief !) ! No one ever complained about how I sounded. The battery is just crazy almost 3 times the Bose (60 hours) ! ANC is Top tier too, and so is transparency but still not Airpod max level, but enough to hear your surrounding properly. my biggest issue with the Momentum 4 which is a big strength of the Bose is Bluetooth Connectivity and power on and off. Several times I had to check if the headphones were connected to my device or I had to turn off and restart the headphone to be sure it was connected, an issue I NEVER HAD with the Bose (just switch on and press play). Sometimes it's hard to know if it's ON or OFF as it turns on automatically and it's a bit confusing to know wether you really switched it off or not. I hope Sennheiser will address that with a software update. A personal one : I wish the momentum 4 had more buttons like the bose ( easy to operate in any season and no room for confusion) Do I recommend the momentum 4 ? ABSOLUTELY! What about the Bose QC45? Perfect Comfort , great ANC (the best for very long listening and travel).

Excellent sound quality with one dealbreaker
Sound quality is top tier (with the use of the app, else it sounds flat out of the box). Sound quality is clean, spatial, and full. It feels like the singer is singing right into my ears. Each instrument is well balanced and placed; no instrument overpowers the other. ANC is very good too. I cannot hear the loud construction that's right outside. I come from the Skullcandy Crusher Evo which is specialized for bass and percussion. The bass and percussion on the M4s are exceptional, but are not as impactful and intense like the Evo's. This shouldn't be a concern for most listeners, but this is something to consider if you have a preference for bass and percussion. This isn't a dealbreaker but the sound quality is the best at high volumes (> 80%). Thankfully the ear pads are soft and comfortable. But wearing these for several hours at > 80% volume is definitely not recommended for the sake of ear health (which is obvious common sense for any headphones). My main deal breaker is I can hear more from my right ear. I wore the headphones backwards and could hear more from my left ear. The stereos are slightly angled, so the sound is the clearest when my ears are closer to the stereos. Regardless of how I wear it or what I listen to, I still can hear more from one ear. I checked my settings and nothing looks off. Other than that, I recommend the headphones for the A+ sound quality, 60 hour battery life, exceptional ANC, and comfortable ear pads.
