Momentum Sport True Wireless Earbuds with Adaptive Noise Cancellation
Product Details
Web ID: 5454660Terrible for running.
As running dedicated earbuds, the sound quality is really good. Not great, but given they need to be dust resistant, water resistance and hardy, I can't fault them. They lose a point in the fit though, as they're far from perfect. I can appreciate that to get the sound quality and all the other feature in, plus make them durable, there is a need to bulk up the size so I wouldn't deduct more than a point (even though Jabra could do it). The issue is that even when you think you have a secure fit, they can still fall out from time-to-time (Beats has this sorted). My biggest issue with these earbuds is that the touch (buttonless) "functionality" is terrible. No matter what adjustments I make, on nearly every run I'll have issues with songs being paused/skipped, headphones switching off (mostly the right) and volume going up or down without any prompting. I can't work out what the issue is. I've looked at all of the app features and adjusting the fit and I keep having issues. I do use the earbuds when I'm commuting on the train or working from home and they're pretty good in those circumstances. Having said that, I could have spent less and gotten better sound for those purposes. I bought these earbuds for running, and as running earbuds, they're terrible. Just for context, my rating would be as follows: - Running: 1 star (mostly due to touch control issues) - Commuting: 3 stars (I could get better sound and ANC from other earbuds for less cost) - Gym: 4 stars (there's better options out there for less cost) Instead of "Sport", maybe they should have called it "Gym" or "Fitness". My only other comment is why bother with the HR monitor when most people worried about HR would already have a watch or strap that would likely be more accurate. I never used the HR sensor.

Hmmm
The sound is good, but I haven't yet found the fitting comfortable, and the 'tap' controls are not easy to predict. I like the brand so will persevere but have been a longtime user of Bose and so far this is not the new champion.

Great but sensors disconnects
Fit and sound are great but the heart rate and temp sensor disconnects halfway through my workouts. Need a version of it without the sensors to help with battery life

Next level audio enjoyment
Sennheiser, you’ve done it again! These Momentum Sport are the most impressive earbuds I’ve ever heard. The tantalizing highs complement the precise low frequency bass and crystal clear mid tones delightfully satisfying each ear with independent sounds makes these earbuds an enjoyment to listen.

Find My Bud :)
Bought these about 3 Months ago. Well made and really nice quality finish. Used every second day for hikes and trail. Used the middle ear bud size and after 2 months I use the smallest due to falling out a few times. Fell out maybe twice on Left side out of 25 Hikes. Pretty good. Sound is great and high enough IMO. Really comfortable after fitting the smallest bud. Best feature was the find my ear bud. Ear bud came out while running on the trail when removing my hat. The string on my hat grabbed it and dislodged it from my ear. 30 min looking through the rocks and leaves. Couldn't find it and I knew I had the function to find ear bud but thought there was no hope as it would only show the rough location. No !, it actually beeps and gets louder. I found it within a minute like gold detecting. You can search the Left or Right. What a great feature. The Ear bud was off the track around 2 feet to my right down the cliff. Didn't think I would find it. Worth the money. :)

Needs better testing
Fits great and sound is good, but clearly was not tested with devices other than phones. It worked well with my iPhone but compatibility with Garmin watch was not good. It kept disconnecting and sound was not great. It seemed to be an issue with the heart rate monitor as most issues appeared to arise when HR monitor connected.

Not worth the hassle
Left earbud never turned on after charging and pairing to phone. Looked online and found it is a common issue. Price definitely not worth it.

Dissapointed
I bought Momentum Sports a few weeks ago, and it was delivered to me in Adelaide, South Australia. I have tried all the earfins and eartips, etc. I also have a pair of TW3's and following two weeks of attempting to get the best quality or at least similar to that of the TW3's, I have given up. The comfort, sound and clarity is not a match with the TW3's. Following carefully investigation between the TW3's and Sports I noticed that the problem appears to be the shape of the Sports earbuds - it does not have the reach that the TW3's have - i.e. the TW3's seems to go deeper into the ear - which improves the sound quality and comfort. I will no longer wear the Sports earbuds and although I seem to experience problems with my TW3's - the case seems to only charge intermittently, I will revert to the TW3s.
