German company Sennheiser is one of the popular premium audio brands in India and its new active noise-cancelling headphones – — Momentum Wireless 3 for Rs 34,990 — are now creating waves.
Here is what we feel after using the latest Sennheiser product.
For a comfortable all-day listening, the headphone features genuine leather and soft padding on earpads and headband.
The latest headphones come with a cable for wired listening, and a USB-C cable for charging, and feature three active noise-cancellation modes and transparent-hearing functionality.
While Max is the highest level of noise cancellation, Anti-Wind mode provides slightly less cancellation and there is also an Anti-Pressure mode.
With Sennheiser Smart Control app, one can customise the type and degree of noise cancellation. The headphones support Bluetooth 5.0 and feature one-touch access to voice assistants such as Alexa, Google Assistant and Siri. Pairing is effortless as well, thanks to NFC and an automatic pairing mode that makes setting up the initial activation a breeze.
Momentum Wireless 3 offers nearly 17-hour battery life, which is not bad, compared to Sony’s excellent WH-1000XM3 noise-cancelling headphones which offer a day-long backup.
Conclusion: In terms of sound quality, the Sennheiser Momentum Wireless 3 is a good overall choice. The design and features are also better than its competitors at this price range. (IANS)
