What reviewers say
Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?
Reviewers praise
- Sound quality is consistently praised as among the best in the category, with accurate timbre, improved treble response, and high objective scores for tonal balance and immersiveness.
- ANC is effective at suppressing traffic, train, and low-frequency ambient noise, with adaptive behaviour and a dedicated anti-wind mode.
- Battery endurance is strong across real-world use, with a battery protection mode in the app that helps preserve long-term cell health.
Reviewers push back
- Fit is inconsistent — the thin silicone ear tips fold easily and break the seal, and the ear wings are too small to help some users; foam tip options are absent.
- The earbuds and case are physically bulky, making side-sleeping uncomfortable and the case larger than most competitors.
- Microphone quality degrades noticeably in wind — the noise suppression algorithm attenuates ambient noise but also strips out the speaker's voice.
A well-built, great-sounding pair of earbuds with strong ANC and forward-looking connectivity, held back by fit inconsistency, a bulky form factor, and microphone performance that stumbles in wind.
On Momentum True Wireless 4: Fit and comfort divide reviewers: one found the ear wings too small and the seal unreliable across multiple fit tests, while another wore them through a six-hour overnight flight without issue.
