• 00:30 - 01:00 these the white and silver look is great the price was great the sound quality is supposed to be the best on these for just like straight audio especially like instrumental and classical music things like that plus I like the case it also comes with a cord airplane plugin deal and all that so I'm going to open these up charge them for a little bit while I'm doing
• 01:00 - 01:30 other things letting my pre-workout kick in and then I'm going to take these straight to the gym the home gym go to Peasant public gyms the home gym is the way to go trust me so I dig the case the White and the silver that's clean yeah they just they
• 01:30 - 02:00 look like they're nice quality little hard here middle is the softer portion so it's soft on the top not so much over here headphones look like they're going to feel pretty comfortable probably more than my audio Technic uh atm50 XS if you if you're familiar with those
• 02:00 - 02:30 so I'm going to download the app for this thing I'm going to charge these up play with the equalizer and all that good stuff and then I'll test them out in the gym and I'll let you know what I think I like that the normal cord let's see how many feet this is that's probably about a 4T 3 and 1/2t cord around there
• 02:30 - 03:00 I'm sure the box says I like that it matches colors I also like that L-shaped connections when you stick it into whatever it's not sticking straight out like this and just getting banged up all the time if you're in the gem or whatever and want to plug it in the oldfashioned way which can be better sound quality a lot of the time over Bluetooth so we will see how these head up are they worth the money how these turn out are they worth the
• 03:00 - 03:30 money so I think I got these for 229 on Black Friday 2024 on Amazon the boses were down on sale for I think 329 for The Quiet Comfort Ultras the Sony were around 3y around there for the xm5 so not bad and these are supposed to have the best sound quality I think the B quiet Comfort Ultras
• 03:30 - 04:00 probably would be a lot more comfortable to wear for a long period of time but I just want that sound quality and these apparently have it so I'm going to charge these bad boys up play around with them in the gym play around with the equalizer of the app and all that stuff and I will get back to you in a couple days or so on what I really think after a good thorough test
• 04:00 - 04:30 so good news these do charge with just a regular iPhone USBC cable if you're worried about that carrying around multiple cables you don't have to do all that your regular iPhone USBC cables should work just fine these came at 40% I ran them for about 15 20 minutes and the battery remained at 40% so I think these have about 60 hours total battery time and that's looking
• 04:30 - 05:00 correct so far maybe even more we'll see I ran them at full volume all of the equalizers on neutral just to try out the headphones so far they sound great they're adult headphones they don't have any crazy bass or anything like that added into them like the Beats or nonsense headphones like that think of these As Nice adult headphones very comfortable a lot more comfortable than my audio technicia
• 05:00 - 05:30 so I'm going to charge these a little bit more and run them over to the gym the home gym final thoughts on these Sennheiser momentum m4s so they're probably the best headphones I've ever had I've had them for a little over a month now they're mainly gym headphones come in a nice box nice case haven't really used either of these I like how it matches my setup
• 05:30 - 06:00 that was the main reason for buying them they match with my iPad and my ma what is it the secret lab Magnus pro desk very clean standing desk and the Mac setup and all that right but make sure you get the app download this go here and I always turn that all the way left for the noise cancelling the touch controls make sure you turn that off or
• 06:00 - 06:30 I do at least every time you turn on the app it's always on so I always click off that way when you're in the gym or whatever like that when I move around the headphones or I'm doing something in the gym and these accidentally get touched it won't adjust the volume or pause or anything like that so I just turn all that nonsense off and go here swipe that all the way left and then you can go to your equalizers
• 06:30 - 07:00 and if you want to have some more base boost and stuff like that turn that on but I never use that I don't like it it kind of blows out the sound quality so I like it just flat all the way left on there touch controls off you're good to go on the app but great headphones definitely worth the price it was a run run up between the the Sony's the quiet Comfort Ultras
• 07:00 - 07:30 by Bose and then the Sennheiser m4s which are said to have the best sound quality out of all three of those so I primarily use these in the gym they're great for that I've had them for over a month now they still look brand new when I get out of the gym I clean them off with a alcohol lens wipe that you can use on your phone and Camera Electronics glasses and whatnot so I buy the big boxes of those just clean that off after the gym and
• 07:30 - 08:00 you're good to go excellent headphones definitely worth the money they have a lot of different colors and varieties but I just I prefer this color here because it matches my setup just throw them on the end right here before I was using [Music] the Audio Technica at m50s they wore out after a while I put on
• 08:00 - 08:30 new covers and a new strap thing up top and they're basically still good as new and I've had these for a number of years still excellent headphones I've got on the 10 foot cord on here right now they're great I was also using the what are these the Beats Beats buds or something like that
• 08:30 - 09:00 I was using them mainly for the gym I like these because they actually stay in my ears with the wing tips the airpods and airpods Pro won't stay in for me so I'm not crazy about them these are still good for a number of use cases if I'm in the gym or something like that and I don't want as big of headphones on in the way like if I'm taking off and on a weight vest going over my head and stuff like that I don't want them catching on there but really I don't really use these anymore I
• 09:00 - 09:30 use the sennheisers almost exclusively about 95% of the time I've used them on calls they're okay for calls not bad but that's not a primary use for if I'm doing calls if I'm out and about I usually have these on me if I'm out running around I usually don't carry these on me I don't want to be wearing these in the vehicle looking crazy with these on so these are still probably better for call being out and about and
• 09:30 - 10:00 stuff like that but I would say the majority of the time overwhelmingly the senheiser m4s are the way to go awesome headphones
