IP ratings refer to the level of protection given by a casing, against dust and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value of the IP rating refers to protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (sweat).
Having a value of IPX4, the Urbanista Copenhagen's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and of liquids that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes.
In comparison to the Urbanista Copenhagen, Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 have a rating of IPX4 meaning that
we are not yet certain of their rating with solids (dust)
and that of liquids is that,
they both have the same rating against liquids
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 have a weight of 140g . We consider a lower weight better because lighter devices are more comfortable to carry.
True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, Urbanista Copenhagen are true wireless for this matter since they don't have cables. This is an important distinction since wireless earbuds have wires connecting the two earbuds together.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 also is true wireless since it has no cables linking the pair of earbuds together.
Urbanista Copenhagen have sweat resistance
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's resistance to sweat makes both devices good for use while doing sports such as long-distance running, marathons, training in workout bodysuits, etc
The earbud foam is made to be ultracompact and lightweight, with little interference with earrings, spectacles, hats, or hairstyles. The Urbanista Copenhagen have an earbud foam to some it is more comfortable than the in-ear foam.
Urbanista Copenhagen have stereo speakers, what this means is that Urbanista Copenhagen's speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience.
Both Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 and Urbanista Copenhagen have stereo speakers
Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to actively cancel noise. How it works, it detects and analyzes the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and then generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. In simple terms, it's like taking +1 (noise) then producing -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 resulting in a reduced level of noise.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 have Active Noise Cancellation enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, good for your ears since you don't need to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background sounds.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 stay tightly in place, this creates a sound covering that tones down background sounds well as preventing the device sound from leaking out at the same.
Urbanista Copenhagen have a unit size of 12mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, and can produce better bass.
The driver unit is basically a mini speaker that makes sound in the earbuds, its size dictates the sound produced by the earbuds.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 driver unit is 7mm in diameter,
which means that they have a smaller driver unit than that of Urbanista Copenhagen by 5mm
, as many tend to believe that driver units of a bigger size automatically produce better sound quality.
However, large drivers usually have difficulty producing high frequencies so it's true that, larger drivers can generate louder sound, but this does not imply that they deliver better quality sound.
The Urbanista Copenhagen's lowest frequency is at 20Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well a particular audio component generates low frequencies that can be heard, and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, this implies that
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 can make sound with a juicier bass than the Urbanista Copenhagen
The Urbanista Copenhagen's highest frequency is at 20000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component makes high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal while at it.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's highest frequency is at 21000Hz, this implies that
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 can produce a clearer and crispier treble than the Urbanista Copenhagen
SPL, is the pressure level of sound, measured in decibels, dB, Urbanista Copenhagen's measurement is 115dB/mW. Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's sound pressure level measurement is 107dB/mW. The sound pressure level, something is can be considered differently by different persons, so we need to have a way of getting a standard measurement of sound level expressed in numerical terms.
The Urbanista Copenhagen's battery life is 8 hours, a device's battery life is usually given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's battery life is
less than that of Urbanista Copenhagen by 1 hours
. Each time you recharge your earbuds, they get a little less playing time. The effect is barely noticeable at first, but over time, your wireless earbuds will have shorter listening time.
The battery life of the charging case is given by the manufacturer, and Urbanista Copenhagen's case has a charge of 24 hours. A charging case with more battery hours allows you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3's charging case has a battery life of 21 hours,
less than that of Urbanista Copenhagen by 3 hours

Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3, the device supports wireless charging. To charge the device, you simply place down on a supported charging pad.
Urbanista Copenhagen have a battery level indicator, an indicator alerts you when the earbuds has a low battery. Its lights display the charging state of your earbuds and charging case.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 too have a battery level indicator, these allow you tell the charging state of your earbuds, whether fully charged, or having a low battery.
Urbanista Copenhagen support USB TYPE-C, a standard connector for transmitting both data and power in a single cable.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 too use USB TYPE-C. This USB-C plug is part and parcel of most current laptops, phones, and tablets.
The Urbanista Copenhagen have Bluetooth version of 5.2, Bluetooth is a wireless technology standard that enables data transfers between devices placed in close proximity, using short-wavelength, ultra-high frequency radio waves.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 has a Bluetooth version of 5.2,
equal to that of the Urbanista Copenhagen
. Newer versions provide faster data transfers.
The Urbanista Copenhagen have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 have a maximum range of 10meters,
equal to that of the Urbanista Copenhagen
Urbanista Copenhagen support AAC, a codec used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at a similar bit rate.
Since its the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Urbanista Copenhagen will work fine with your iPad. If you intend on using these with Android , ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well.
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 support AAC as well. Designed to be the successor of the MP3 format, AAC generally achieves higher sound quality than MP3 encoders at the same bit rate.

Urbanista Copenhagen have 4 microphones.
While the Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 3 microphones are 6,
more than that of Urbanista Copenhagen by 2
. More microphones record better sound quality and enable the earbuds to filter out background sounds.
