    More and More third party truly wireless earbuds are finally starting to get really good. And now there are some really good premium truly wireless earbuds to take into consideration if you want to upgrade from AirPods, Galaxy Buds, and even the Jabra Elite 65t’s. So today we’re going to be looking at the brand new Sony WF-1000XM3’s and the Sennheiser Momentums. They’re both great, but they’re very different from one another.

    Thanks to one of my subscribers, after reseting the WF-1000XM3's the constant LED blinking is now gone. So when they're actually in your ears they don't blink at all which is good. I just wish mine worked correctly out the box.

      just another reason to get the Sennheiser Momentums ;) I dont sit at an office desk for work, I commute and fly to work, so the short battery life actually suits while in transit. And the superior sound quality is number one priority. If you're paying a premium price for headphones, I want the best sounding unit I can find.

    I really like using my earbuds with multiple devices - Sony’s shine in this area with hot swappable Bluetooth Connection. You don’t have to disconnect (yourself) in order to connect to a different device (provided the Sony’s have connected to that device before). It’s fast, and reliable - making switching quick and painless. Sennheiser’s presented difficulty for me in this area.

    You should run this again now a year later where Sony firmware has been updated a couple of times, and SennHeiser now has the true wireless 2. I have worked with all of them, and I think the original true wireless had better sound with a wider soundstage compared to the new TW2. I also think the Sony's have a much better and fuller bass. The equalizer on the SennHeiser is a joke. I don't like the comfort of the Sony quite as well but it is not a deal breaker. All in all, I would choose the Sony or the original TW1, except the battery drain issue on tw1 was not acceptable. I did like the sound though on the original Sennheiser.

  • @animalic
    @animalic 5 лет назад +10

    Had the Senns and lost them. Got the Sonys based on good reviews for decent sound quality with a bonus of noise canceling for the gym. I agree with pretty much everything in your review. Especially the better fit and sound quality of the Senns (clarity, soundstage, etc.).
    I'm also not thrilled with the noise canceling of the Sonys. They might be good for commuting on a train or plane, but the noise canceling doesn't do enough for my needs of reducing music at the gym so I don't have to blast my ears out to overpower it. They definitely do not come close to the WH-1000MX3 (which I also have). Understandably due to the size difference. In fact, I think the Senns do almost as good of a job with their passive sound isolation as the WF-1000MX3's active noise canceling.
    Oh, as an aside, I sometimes had a challenge understanding your speaking patterns. If you want to improve your videos for everyone (well... for me at least), consider keeping a more even tempo. For example: "Sony does manage to clawtheirwaytothe top." "ButlikeImentioned earlier... Idon'tthinktheseearphonesaregoingtofiteveryone comfortably." But that's just me. Otherwise, I enjoyed your comments as being well thought out (and it helps that I agree with them).

    • @animalic
      @animalic 5 лет назад +3

      @@okaygrey No glaring problems.
      Caveats: I hardly sweat and only lift weights. They did not feel as stable as the Senns, but I didn't have a problem laying down to bench, etc. Can't comment on how stable they would be on a treadmill. Although, I do recall fiddling with them occasionally to always ensure they were snug in my ears (and I did try all of the earpiece sizes included with the Sonys). It seems like I really need to cram them into my ears to get the noise canceling to work properly.
      Speaking of which, the noise canceling seemed adequate to cancel out the gym music, but the gym hasn't been playing it that loud recently. The noise isolation of the Senns also seemed adequate when I had them.
      All in all, I do like not having to deal with a wire when working out, which puts them above my Bose QC20 (which has better noise canceling, but I'm not a fan of the Bose sound signature). They also work better than regular headphones, like my WH-1000mx3 or B&W P7s, which can fall off when lying down for benching or tricep extensions. Given the choice, I'd go with the Sennheiser Momentum TW, but the better battery life of the WF-1000mx3 is nice if you need it.

    I disagree on the sound on the Sony with noise cancelled. I find, as a musician, with noise canceling on that the sound quality is noticeably richer and you grasp the separation of instruments better. The bass is fully deep without any degradation. Just my personal observation.

Hopefully Sony keeps their promise and rollout the update this month.

    thank you for your good review. I own Sennheiser MTW almost 6 months, and I agree, they have a briliant sound quality. But you did not mentioned stand by battery drain. My MTW fully charged, if I let them just sit on the table, they are discharged to 0 during maybe 7 days. What about Sony's? Do they have better stand by time? I think it is not only about battery capacity of the case, but also about programers behind the product.

    ANC on most truly wireless earbuds is a gimmick. There are plenty of tests that show upon a good seal and volume at 50% or higher these earbuds passively block out almost all sound.
    So the ANC feature for the Sony shouldn't be a deciding factor, especially if it makes the SQ worse.
    I wish Sony went with wireless charge and volume controls on the earbuds. I'll pay a little more for those features. And I value wireless charge over an extra charge from the case.

    I understand Sony WF1000 XM3 and Sanheiser Momentum True wireless earbuds are some of the best quality but certainly the ugliest earbuds I've seen in my pursuit to buy the best earbuds. On a scale of 1 to 10, 10 being the best, I would give the Sony's a 6 but the Sennheiser an even lower rating. I haven't heard you address this issue although you'd likely agree its important too. The Sanheiser Momentum True wireless earbuds look like old fashion radio dials protruding from the user's eardrums. It doesn't take a degree in fashion style to make a product that's aesthetically pleasing to the buyer. I wouldn't buy these at any price let alone $300. Come on get it together Sanheiser by offering an assortment of colors and an asthetically pleasing shaped ear buds to match the awesome sound of your product and consumers might consider buying your wireless earbuds. Based on ypur review, I will go with the Sonys although it could certainly improve the WF1000XM3 model airbuds by making them more aesthetically pleasing to the eye, confirming an IPX5 rating consistant with athletic-gym goers, and increasing the standard warranty beyond 1-year to show they stand behind this product.

      In the Czech Republic and EU, warranty is 2 years guaranteed free.
      Secondly, there are shops that sell refurbished goods. Where I bought mine ain't one of those. It sells unused goods. That's by law.

      The blinking stops after five minutes out of your ear and stops when it's in your ear

      Personally, the blinking light is kind of useful. It only blinks when not being worn ... and ... while it is powered on. When it stops blinking, it gives confirmation that it’s obeying the preferences setting of: Power down automatically after 5 mins of non-use if taken out of ear, and not returned to the case.

      Allan Sh The momentums sound amazing. They are by far the best sounding wireless earbuds you can get as of now. If you have tried them and are not blown away by the sound, the seal may not have been tight when you used them.

      Tom Alawatte no. If it was an overhyped gimmick then nobody would buy it. ANC matters to many. When I care about audio I go and use my Sennheisers with an AMP. Comparing those to any Bluetooth headphones is ridiculous, that doesn’t mean they would be ideal for a public place. ANC matters
