Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 5
Bluetooth 6.0, aptX Lossless and a user-replaceable battery make the Sennheiser MTW5 one of the most ambitious TWS earphones of the year in our review.
True Wireless In-Ears were the hot sellers in 2018 and meanwhile all well-known headphone companies do offer this type of headphones. Although completely wireless headphones are on the market for quite a while now once again it needed Apple to really get some momentum in this product category.
And because many smartphone manufacturers killed the headphone jack in the last couple of years many users now want (and need) to listen to their favorite tracks without any cables on their headphones.
