Our Verdict

Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless

Samsung Galaxy Buds

The Samsung Galaxy Buds are better truly wireless headphones than the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless. The Samsung have a noticeably smaller design, which sits more comfortably inside the ear without applying any pressure. They are very stable for sports, and their sound profile is more neutral. They also have more than twice the battery life on a single charge than the MOMENTUM True Wireless. On the other hand, you’ll need to map volume control inside the Samsung app, which is only available on Android. The Sennheiser also support the aptX-LL codec for lower latency and generally have a more premium feel than the Samsung.
