I am judging these critically as they are an expensive premium product.First the good:Regarding music quality they compare very favourably with my over the ear Sennheiser headphones that cost me £300.00 some years back. The sound quality is astonishing for such small devices.They are IP4 water resistant rated which means that rain should not be a problem. But, IP4 does not stretch to showers or immersion.They are very comfortable and it does no feel like having a couple of big pine cones stuck in my ears – I forget I have them on. (I thought they might)For me I put them in and they do not dislodge.There are good control features used by touching the cap of each ear bud. They work well and are easy to use.The battery life is good enough and they recharge quickly.Pairing with android is quick and easy. (I have not tried pairing with other devices which have Bluetooth built in).They remember the last sound settings from using the app. So when I have them set up they are how I want them if I were to use them on a PC where I don’t have an app. for them.I have not tried active noise cancellation for phone calls yet, but it works well around the house when listening to music.The Ambient setting to hear what going on around me works very well indeed. Two quick taps on the RH ear bud and three to turn noise cancelling on again. Easy and quick.They have Bluetooth 5. It will only work if the phone/tablet/PC you are using has Blutooth five too. Bluetooth five gives a much better range and vastly superior sound quality.Now the negatives:Almost a deal breaker for me: They will remember 8 pairings, but they will only pair with one device at a time. Which means they are not paired with my phone when I am using them with my tablet. Which means setting my tablet up to take calls from my phone and remembering to pair the phone with them when not using the tablet. A lot of faf. Other Sennheiser products will pair with two devices at one time. They do pair very quickly though.The equaliser on the app. is poor. There is a choice of dragging a single point around the screen, or three equaliser slides (only) which works much the same. The same app used with headphones gives me four different fixed and one custom settings. They are music in a room (they call it club), Movies and Speech and one customisation setting. The speech setting is great for phone calls. It would have been good to see this feature on this device.All in all I think they are very good indeed.

I have many different sets of wireless headphones from the cheap to the expensive. These are in the expensive category, in fact one of the most expensive.The sound quality is good, and you may think that this is the most important aspect. It probably is but everything else slips from there.Fit and comfort are average, not the best, not the worst but over time they become increasingly uncomfortable. I could not see myself using them on a long flight for example. My Airpods Pro are much more comfortable and my Galaxy Buds + over ten times more comfortable.Next up is the connecting. All my other wireless headphone you just need to open the case and put them on – and they connect automatically with my iPhone. These guys only do so about 40% of the time. The other 60% involves opening your Bluetooth settings and forcing a connection.Next on to the controls, I am right-handed, and I use these mostly for listening to music. Every other headphone that I own allows me to control my music on my most natural right-hand side. These are setup to use this on the left. It took me days to figure out how to swap this through the companion app.Which brings me to the last point, the app. It is frankly a waste of the space it’ll take on your phone. Its main feature is the world’s most annoying equalizer, no presets, and a fiddley analog system of changing the various controls.When you pay a premium price, you expect a premium product, and this unfortunately falls short of that.

Hand up I’m a bit auld skool and very fussy when it comes to headphones. For a long time I had no interest whatsoever in wireless buds, convincing myself that my clumsiness would see one half of the product disappear down a drain or off a train platform at some point. I was also somewhat dubious that they could sound anywhere near close to my Sennheiser Monentum’s which are terrific.I was wrong. Very very wrong.These headphones are absolutely superb. They fit my ears snugly (albeit the fit and twist technique takes a wee bit of practice). No more bulky neck band or or dangling wires, I can move around freely and the range is excellent across my house. Aside from the sublime music delivery, I also enjoy listening to audio books whilst walking and if I need to pause the audio a simple tap on the left bud provides crystal clear transparent audio to the outside world. Well done Sennheiser on that one, excellent feature.These headphones will be subject to ongoing firmware updates from Sennheiser (you’ll almost certainly be applying one already out the box) and I expect their quality to improve. But thus far, a quick EQ adjustment via the app supplies excellent bass, mid and treble. Telephony is clear, although the buds are so well hidden I’m still getting to people looking at me in the street as if I’m a deranged lunatic.Expensive, but definitely a sonic step above the AirPod Pro’s I’ve tested. Love these, can see myself using for quite a while. Glad I bought them & would recommend.As for battery, been using for 3 weeks and haven’t had to charge them since unpacking!
