Sennheiser could have just trotted out a set of wireless earbuds that were rated IP55 and called it the Momentum Sport<\/a> ($330<\/a>), but it went further, adding heart-rate and body-temperature sensors to the made-for-exercise earbuds. These additions give you more insight into workouts, but also feed data to your existing third-party activity apps. Of course, the Momentum Sport also has to excel at the normal earbud stuff, and offer an ergonomic design, active noise cancellation (ANC), touch controls and other common features. Sennheiser has a solid track record with sound quality, but now it has to balance that with the expanded capabilities of the Momentum Sport.<\/p>\n

While the Momentum Sport has a better design than the Momentum 4, it struggles in key areas. The biometric sensors work well, but sound quality is inconsistent and on-board controls are frustrating.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
