Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4
Score: 85/100
Baseus Inspire XC1
Score: 84/100Rankings
The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4 offers premium sound with hybrid adaptive ANC, a 7 mm driver and up to 30 hours of total playback, complemented by fast and wireless charging. Its bulkier design and heavier case make it less pocket-friendly, and ANC falls short of the very best. Ideal for audiophiles and travelers who value high-resolution codecs and long battery life.
The Baseus Inspire XC1 open-ear clip-on earbuds combine Bose-tuned sound, LDAC high-resolution audio, and IP66 waterproofing, offering 8 hours of playback and up to 40 hours with the case plus fast charging. While they lack wireless charging and active noise cancellation, they provide multipoint connectivity and low latency for versatile use. Ideal for active users and professionals who need durable, high-quality audio on the go.

Professional reviewers commend the Momentum True Wireless 4 for their detailed, balanced sound, effective hybrid ANC, long battery life and robust feature set including high-resolution codec support and a versatile app. They note the premium build and comfortable fit, but point out the bulkier design, slightly lower ANC performance versus market leaders, and the necessity of the companion app for full customization.
Everyday users love the crystal-clear audio, strong bass and the long battery life with fast charging, describing the fit as comfortable for extended wear. Common complaints revolve around the earbuds feeling bulky for small ears, occasional touch-control glitches, and the relatively heavy charging case.
“Crystal-clear sound, especially bass/details at low/medium volumes”
“Bulky for smaller ears may slip during intense workouts”
Professional reviewers consistently commend the XC1 for its exceptional comfort, secure fit, and versatile sound customization via the Baseus app. The combination of Bose tuning, Dolby Audio, and LDAC satisfies audiophiles, while the fast charging, low latency, and robust IP66 rating make it a strong choice for active users and mobile professionals.
