Sennheiser teased an upcoming wireless headset in June which promises to deliver over 60 hours of playback time. The headset is expected to be The Momentum 4 Wireless, the successor to the aging Momentum 3 Wireless. Indeed, the name and some details of the headphones have been by a listing on Canada Computers & Electronics.
The earlier teaser by Sennheiser pointed to an August launch for the wireless headset. In other words, Sennheiser may only be a few days away from officially announcing the Momentum 4 Wireless. Regardless, Canada Computers & Electronics has released the design, color options, and specs of the headset.
Sennheiser has revamped the Momentum Wireless for the fourth iteration, as expected. Sennheiser, for some reason, has followed Sony’s lead and abandoned the folding design. The Momentum 4 Wireless can fold flat; however, its ear cups cannot hinge to provide a more compact appearance when stored. As a result, the Momentum 4 Wireless has a larger carry case compared to its predecessor.
Sennheiser also looks to have integrated touch controls this time around, as opposed to the Momentum 3 Wireless’ button-heavy design. Separate photographs of the headphones’ packaging reveal the inclusion of adaptive noise canceling (ANC), Qualcomm aptX Adaptive compatibility, and a battery with a battery life of up to 60 hours. In comparison, the Momentum 3 Wireless has a battery life of up to 17 hours. In addition, the Momentum 4 Wireless will be capable of 96 kHz and 24-bit at 420 kbit/s output.
Canada Computers & Electronics lists the Momentum 4 Wireless at CAD 449.95 (~$350). In comparison, the Momentum 3 Wireless was originally priced at CAD 529.95 (~$411) in Canada, but Sennheiser now sells the headphones for CAD 369.95 (~$287). This implies that the Momentum 4 Wireless will be less expensive in other markets.
