Sennheiser Momentum 3 Review

Ingress protection ratings is the rating of protection given by an enclosure, against solids and water. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value means protection against solids say dust, while the second refers to resistance against liquids (sweat).

Having a value of IPX4, the Sennheiser Momentum 3's rating is read as, the first value of X denotes that no data available to specify a protection rating, and the second number of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. The Sennheiser Momentum 3 have a weight of 10.6g . We prefer a lower weight better because lighter devices are easier to carry.

True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, Sennheiser Momentum 3 are true wireless for this matter since they have no cables. This is a major distinction since wireless earbuds have wires linking the two earbuds . Sennheiser Momentum 3 are resistant to sweat Sennheiser Momentum 3 have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from independent channels on both left and right sides, this creates a richer sound and a better listening experience. Active noise cancellation uses more advanced technology to actively cancel noise.

ANC works when, it listens to the sound pattern outside and inside the earbud and after inverts the soundwaves to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like having +1 (sound from your surrounding) then producing -1 (inverted noise) giving zero resulting in a reduced level of noise.

Sennheiser Momentum 3 have ANC allowing you to listen at lower levels of volume, good for your ears since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to outcompete background sounds.

The Sennheiser Momentum 3 sit tightly in place, this creates a sound covering that reduces background sounds and also prevents the earbuds music from leaking out at the same. The Sennheiser Momentum 3 driver unit is 7mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass. A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, its size determines the loudness of the device.

Sennheiser Momentum 3's lowest frequency is at 5Hz, low-frequency response inidcates how well an audio component produces low recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal while at it. The Sennheiser Momentum 3's highest frequency is at 21,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio component generates high recognizable frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. SPL, is the pressure level of sound, in decibels, dB, Sennheiser Momentum 3's measurement is 107dB/mW.

Devices with a higher sound pressure level are generally louder when supplied with any given audio source. The Sennheiser Momentum 3's battery life is 7 hours, these last longer than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge. A device's battery life is given by the manufacturer, and with longer battery life, you get to use it for longer and requires fewer chargings.

The Sennheiser Momentum 3 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth. Sennheiser Momentum 3 support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio.

It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Since it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it can provide better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.

Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Sennheiser Momentum 3 will work fine with your iPad.

Sennheiser Momentum 3 support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps). Sennheiser Momentum 3 have 6 microphones.

Sennheiser Momentum 3 use a noise-canceling type of microphone, these microphones are designed to reduce background sounds from the earbuds' sound. Sennheiser Momentum 3 support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient sound so that they can still be heard even while wearing the earbuds The Sennheiser Momentum 3 have in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the device can detect when they are removed from your ears so that the music is paused.
