The Momentum True Wireless 2 buds have not been tested yet so I cannot compare their experience. However, the specs sheet shows some good tech improvements.
My main point for comparison is against my Beats Powerbeats Pro earbuds, which I have used religiously for approximately three years. I love them so much that I don’t leave the house without them.
It might be time for you to take a pair Momentum True Wireless 3s on a spin.
Here’s why.
Dinky design
Sennheiser’s Momentum True Wireless 3 headphones are a bit smaller and more dingy than their predecessors.
I have a concern that any small wireless earbuds will fall out easily.
They are very secure even while moving around in the gym, but I disagree.
It is thanks to a silicon-based ear wing, which grips tightly inside the ear.
After about 30 minutes, I felt a bit achey in my ears. However, changing the size of the bud helped.
It comes in a beautiful fabric case that looks exactly like the original.
It’s perfect for me to carry around, unlike my Powerbeats Pros, which are too large.
Sennheiser also added wireless charging to its case, one of their most recent upgrades.
It’s more of a bonus than a necessity.
You should sound out
The sound quality of these tiny earbuds was amazing to me.
They pack a lot of punch and can be customized to your liking.
The app allows you to crank up the base and other options so that your tunes explode with power without affecting any vocals.
I was able to dance more with the base booster option. It made some of my favorite dance songs feel like a full-blown party.
Although I need to be cautious about turning the volume up too much for my hearing, it is nice to know that the sound can be turned up.
The perfect size bud tips and the tight fitting ear wing make noise cancellation very strong.
To test this area, I use the horrible screeching of London Underground. It works well and keeps me in my little music world.

Performance is everything
While it’s fantastic that you can personalize the touch controls via your app, I’m not happy with how they are set by default.
Talking about the controls, it seems to be spot on. The sensitivity balance detects all taps that you make with the finger to pause, skip or adjust the volume.
You can get seven hours of use from one charge of the earbuds’ battery.
It supports USB-C and can be used to charge your device again quickly.
In fact, at one time the battery died and I put the earbuds in again for just five minutes. After that, I was able to listen to 25 minutes on the Tube.
It was perfect. I had no issues with Bluetooth while listening to music.
However, I experienced occasional problems with music playing from my phone after I connected my earbuds. This was not an issue with my Powerbeats Pros.
You get what your pay for
At £219.99 a pop, the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 aren’t exactly cheap.
You get an amazing audio experience and you get it for a reasonable price.
Central Recorder says: These tiny beasts are so powerful and quality that I want to get rid of my old favourite audio device.
For those who are not happy with the price, you might consider the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 instead.
