Our Verdict

Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 4

Sennheiser MOMENTUM Sport True Wireless

Although geared towards sports, the Sennheiser MOMENTUM Sport True Wireless share common ground with the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 4, including similarly warm sound profiles and the same Smart Control app with ear stabilizers. However, the MOMENTUM Sport have a more durable silicone case, greater water and dust resistance, and their fit feels less invasive. Plus, the MOMENTUM Sport have biometric monitors, which are unique to the earbuds and synchronized in the app, but arguably, if you have a fitness watch, some of those bases are already covered. On the other hand, the MOMENTUM True Wireless 4 boast a longer battery life to get you through a workday or commute and more effective noise isolation at the expense of a deeper in-ear fit, though.
