Our Verdict

Heavys H1H

Sennheiser MOMENTUM 5

The Sennheiser MOMENTUM 5 are better wireless over-ears than the Heavys H1H. The Sennheisers have a more balanced default sound profile, with more sound customization options via the companion app, like an 8-band graphic EQ. Their noise isolation is slightly better than the Heavys, too, and they have a much longer battery life. However, the Heavys do offer lower latency over both Bluetooth and wired analog connections, which could make them a better fit for gaming. The Heavys also retail for a little less than the Sennheiser.
