*Hey everyone, HERE ARE SOME IMPORTANT DETAILS!* 1. *These DO NOT have the same battery drain issue* that was seen in the originals. Sennheiser fixed that and from my testing so far, they are holding up well! I will continue to test these extensively and report back my findings! 2. *IT IS A MASTER AND SLAVE BUD CONNECTION* as I mentioned in the video. If you watched Flossy's video and were confused by how he showed the buds working independently, I was too. I spoke with Sennheiser and they believe he did not place the earbud in the case correctly, and thus the right bud never disconnected. They assured me that it is a master/slave bud connection, so placing the right bud in the case will disconnect both earbuds, and no media will play on the left earbud. 3. *These have Bluetooth 5.1*! This is a subtle improvement over BT 5.0, but it is certainly worth mentioning 4. With just a few clicks, you can help a poor wired-earphone user in need by sharing this video with them! All joking aside, if you enjoyed this video, please consider sharing it with a friend. It really helps the channel out and I will greatly appreciate your help!

Going on day 3, sound quality is top shelf. Only issue is the call quality. I learned I was twisting them slightly in my ears causing the microphone to be blocked, so I twisted the other direction (clockwise) just a hair and it helped. The setup diagram shows a counterclockwise twist, and I think that may be incorrect. Guess that might depend on the angle you insert them in your ears. The Sennheiser logo should be horizontal when in your ear. The EQ is a little odd, I had to boost the treble a bit for my taste.

And second, every time I change between my iphone to ipad or TV, I have to pair the earbuds everytime, you cannot have 2 connections together.

Sennheiser confirmed that I was correct and it is not possible for the left earbud to play music while the right is in the case. Sennheiser believes he may have improperly placed the earbud in the case, and thus the right earbud never disconnected (and was not charging either). This is a master-slave bud connection, and for more information, please check out the user manual: assets.sennheiser.com/global-downloads/file/13878/M3IETW2_Manual_EN.pdf

Hey Mike, hope you are well! I’ve luckily got the MTW2 in white and they look really nice. Only been using them for a few days but they feel more comfortable than the Gen 1’s. Sound wise I’d say the Gen 1’s were a little more punchy, but I just use the equaliser to get the sound I prefer so it’s not a problem. The main features I love over the Gen 1’s is the ANC and the smaller more comfy fit. So loving then so far, for anyone with the Gen 1’s if you can afford to sell them and pay the difference for the Gen 2’s it’s worth the upgrade in my humble opinion. Oh and I hated the battery drain of course on the Gen 1’s which has been resolved. Thanks again for your review video!

Brad Davister I think the value is definitely there on them. The only time they’ve fallen out is when I’m wearing a beanie because of the adjusting. They’re pretty comfortable and well designed in my opinion. My favorite part about them aside from the kickass audio quality is the fact that they’re so jampacked with technology. The proximity sensor automatically pauses music when you take them out, albeit you cannot use just the left earbud, due to the way they’re set up. The Bluetooth connects faster than any other device I have and the tap functions of each individual earbud are really convenient. The sound dampening and sound enhancement are really nice too. As far as battery life goes, I got through about a week on one charge with them at an average usage of 3 hours a day. And I’m sure you’re happy to be out of crawlspaces and attics in your industrial setting, lol. Stay smart out there.

But not any where near the call clarity as the air pods pro.

With the Gen 1’s the earbuds would be fully charged for 2-3 days, but I then found the case battery had completely drained and then not long after the earbuds themselves. I read in the Gen 2’s manual that they arrive in a deep sleep mode and go into this state when fully charged in the case. So appears it’s a deep sleep as apposed to a standby mode which sounds a lot better for battery consumption 👌

Have you ever reviewed Earin earbuds? I have the gen-1, it was basically the first ever to mark truely wireless earbuds. I got them in 2015. They suffered many flaws and the price point was very high at around 300. But they were cool for what they were at the time. They now have the M-2, version 2 earbuds. I'm curious what you think of them and how they compare to these (Sennheiser).

Have you listened to the new B&O E8 (v.3), and if so, how would you compare these to those? I really love the B&O sound signature, but also really like the Sennheiser sound. That said, this would be when comparing those two brands in their over-ear models. I do currently have the E8 (v.3) and like them, but could be persuaded away if these were drastically better?

@@krystiankorecki9976, I have always really liked the B&O sound signature, but it's not for everyone. It tends to be a tad on the bright side, but also very well balanced. The bass is wonderful, so long as you have a tight fit with the ear tips. This is the trick, and will make or break the sound. They look incredible, the charging case is nice and small (and leather), with wireless charging. The app could be a tad better, though they have said they will be continuing to improve it… to which one major update has already happened, so that's good. I am not able to compare them to the Senn's since I don't own either generation of those. That was why I posed this question in the first place. I hope that Mike will chime in and say a thing or two-if he has even listened to the B&O E8's that is. For me, I do like the overall quality of the B&O's, but they lack proximity control, ANC, and the ability to use the left earbud by itself. On paper, the Senn's win out. In sound quality, I have no idea which would be better. My guess is they are both incredible. As far as AirPods are concerned… if you are planning to use them for long phone calls and such, I don't think there is much on the market that can beat them for that. For music, there are many options better, including the E8's. And as far as looks… that's for individual preference. I prefer the subtlety of the B&O's. Cheers!

@@krystiankorecki9976 I've not noticed any delays at all. With the Bluetooth 5.1, you should be just fine with videos and things like that. They are expensive, that's for sure, and at $50USD more than the Senn's that are featured in this video, those might actually be a perfect choice. I mean, the Senn's have ANC, as well as the ability to use either the left OR right earbud by itself. The B&O can only use the right earbud by itself, as the left must be paired to the right. But again, I do love the sound signature of B&O and it's unlike many others. If you are okay with not having ANC, as well as spending a bit more, then the B&O's really do sound amazing and are worth it in my book.

I’ve been working in audio since well before there was an internet. I am a huge fan of Sennheiser and own quite a bit of their gear, but after 3 days of evaluation, I SENT MY MOMENTUM 2 EARPODS BACK. They do offer an incredible music listening experience across the board; classical, country, rock, rap, etc. But that isn’t close to being enough when it comes t a $250 pair of earbuds. Ironically, the worst part of these is the microphone. If you plan on speaking on the phone, using Zoom or otherwise employing the mic, you will sound at best like you’re speaking through a pillow and at worst like you’re drowning in a Darth Vader mask. Additionally, ANC is so-so, battery life isn’t close to what they say, they’re not very comfortable, sound level is very low compared to other earbuds at this price point. I really, really wanted to like these. Apparently, people who actually really understand audio tend to also not be huge fans and there are Momentum 3’s planned to be released this year. I hope this helps put things into better perspective. And again, I am a lover of Sennheiser and wish they had lived up to their reputation.

Sennheiser confirmed that I was correct and it is not possible for the left earbud to play music while the right is in the case. Sennheiser believes he may have improperly placed the earbud in the case, and thus the right earbud never disconnected (and was not charging either). This is a master-slave bud connection, and for more information, please check out the user manual: assets.sennheiser.com/global-downloads/file/13878/M3IETW2_Manual_EN.pdf

These use BT 5.1 and from my experience, have no problems. I am currently testing these extensively and will update as I learn more. Essentially though, Sennheiser seemed to have rushed the first gen to the market and clearly there were some issues. Then waiting 1.5 years to release these, it is obvious that they really spent a lot of engineering effort to make sure they were perfect. And so far, it looks like they succeeded
