Our Verdict

Apple AirPods Max

Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 Wireless

The Apple AirPods Max Wireless and the Sennheiser MOMENTUM 4 Wireless have different strengths. While both headphones are well-built, the Apple support Spatial Audio (which can help make your audio seem more immersive), and they can block out significantly more background noise. They also have an H1 chip for seamless pairing with your Apple devices. However, the Sennheiser are more comfortable. They also have a significantly longer continuous battery life, have sound customization features, and support multi-device pairing. Plus, their app works with Android or iOS devices.
