What Buyers Say

Sennheiser ACCENTUM Plus

72 out of 100 low confidence 8 reviews

The Sennheiser Accentum Plus Wireless headphones receive generally positive feedback for their sound quality, comfort, and long battery life, with several reviewers praising the adaptive ANC and touch controls. However, some users report issues with noise cancellation effectiveness in noisy environments like subways, occasional pairing delays, and a finicky tap feature on the right earcup. Overall, they are seen as a good value, especially for those upgrading from older models, but not without flaws.

Pros
  • Excellent sound quality
  • Comfortable for long wear
  • Long battery life (50 hours)
  • Adaptive noise cancellation
  • Touch controls and app integration
Cons
  • Noise cancelling weak in subway
  • Pairing takes 5-7 seconds
  • Tap feature on right earcup unreliable
  • Sweat resistance questionable
