Good headphones! I bought these to replace my PXC 550 and I'm glad I did. The battery life is days-on-end, as advertised, and that is my favorite feature. They sound good and seem built well.
Minus one star though for the weird ear sensor in the right ear cup. There seems to be some sort of sensor in there that detects when my ear is actually inside the cup, and it sends Windows Media "media start/stop" commands automatically. I was so confused for a week after buying these headphones! I had no idea what was causing my problems. Once I figured it out then I wished there was some sort of "configuration menu", or that it was instead on the left ear, or disabled entirely. Oh well. Too much technology in my technology.
Easy to Set Up, Comfortable Fit, and Amazing Sound

These headphones were very straightforward to set up. It took a couple of minutes for them to appear on Bluetooth, but once they did, pairing was quick and hassle-free. I really like that they include multiple earbud sizes — everyone’s ears are different, and the standard size felt slightly large for me, so having smaller options made a big difference in comfort.
The charging case feels solid and well made without being bulky, which is great for carrying in a bag or pocket. Sound quality is excellent, and the noise cancellation genuinely works. I tested it on the lowest setting and could faintly hear someone talking nearby, but the words weren’t clear at all. If you’re looking to fully tune out and enjoy music, podcasts, or calls without distractions, these headphones do the job perfectly.
The review title is not an exaggeration; these headphones are genuinely everything I was looking for. First of all, the 60-hour battery life is as advertised and is genuinely impressive. They are incredibly comfortable as well. I use these when working from home, and I don't experience any discomfort at all from the earcups or the headband after wearing them all day. The features that come with the Momentum 4 are fantastic. Adjustable ANC, adjustable EQ (8 Channel), touch controls on the right earcup for literally everything you need from music to adjusting the ANC, and call controls. The app is well-built and easy to navigate without being overcomplicated, and Firmware updates and Multi-Device functionality have been flawless. The on-head detection and automatic sleep functions are very nice to have as well. Now, of course, the most important part of any headphones, the sound quality. These headphones sound better than anything else I have ever used. The bass is punchy without being overpowering, and the bass boost feature and EQ settings allow you to really dial things in based on the music you are listening to. I mostly listen to EDM and Metal, and have different EQ settings for each. Everything from the vocals to the drums and guitar is crystal clear. I have heard sounds in songs that I never noticed before, from the weirdest of basslines to crazy guitar solos and the hardest drops, the Momentum 4 does not disappoint. The included hard case is color-matched to the headphones that you buy, holds a USB-C cable, airplane headphone adapter, and also automatically shuts them down after you set them in the case. The fit and finish on these headphones is fantastic, and the construction quality is fantastic. I have had my headphones for a couple of years now and have had 0 issues to speak of, and they hardly look any different from the day I got them.
Might as well look for one of their wired headphones. I’ve spent over half the time using the wired connection. That offers a lower quality listening experience. The rest of the time is trying to keep the headphones connected to the device. I’ve only had them for 2 weeks and my power button doesn’t work and the headphones are unable to stay paired for longer than 5 minutes. At this price point it’s honestly not worth it. The quality of music and equalizer customization is amazing and not being able to use it because the headphones can’t figure out how to connect is just disappointing.
