Was tempted at $150, but nah. But for $100, ok I'll bite! (Main reason for me is because it's one of / the only true wireless earphones that supports AptX-LL - the Momentum True Wireless V2 does not!)

This is the version 1 of the Momentum True Wireless. Supposedly has great sound (see here), but has a battery drain issue (which can be mitigated with this fix by inserting a magnetic USB-C plug - meaning the case will stay charged for about 4 days (so will still need frequent recharging, but not as bad). Edit: See comments below here and here about the battery issues being exaggerated. I will leave all this here, just so people are aware there is a battery drain issue, but the extent of it, I can't say.

Supports: SBC, AAC, AptX & AptX-LL (one of the few/only true wireless earphones to support AptX Low Latency!)

A joke at the original RRP of $499, but for $100, it's not a bad option to consider (particularly if you have an AptX Low Latency Transmitter, like the Genki for Nintendo Switch).

    Im very tempted. Was planning to wait for the next sale on the V2s but these for $100? Ive bought shoes for more than that

    • happybargains on 10/12/2020 - 22:54

      In my experience shoes usually cost more than $100 a pair.

        Haha yep good point! Note to self, dont post when about to sleep.
        My original thinking was that I recently bought a pair of heels for double that price hardly even thinking about it and then there I was tossing up a great bargain on a product i’ve been thinking about for months.

    • nadan on 11/12/2020 - 01:36

      And shoes are a giant step from these.

      I looked everywhere on Sennheiser website. where do you buy Sennheiser shoes?

    • Glaymore on 10/12/2020 - 22:51

      Says brand new.

    • caprimulgus on 10/12/2020 - 22:52
      +5

      At this price, I'm not phased if it's refurbished - but FWIW, the listing says:

      "Brand New: A brand-new, unused, unopened, undamaged item in its original packaging (where packaging is applicable). Packaging should be the same as what is available in a retail store, unless the item was packaged by the manufacturer in non-retail packaging, such as an unprinted box or plastic bag. See the seller's listing for full details."

      (Didn't neg you, btw, as I can't confirm 100% either way - but I'm assuming the listing is correct)

      • vicez on 10/12/2020 - 23:13

        From the item description under warranty

        Sennheiser Products: 2 Years

        Refurbished Products: Carry the standard warranty**

        ** Refurbished product warranties are only valid when purchased from an authorized Sennheiser reseller.

        • Hackerman on 10/12/2020 - 23:14

          Yeah I think that's just general information. It's listed as Brand New and it's Sennheiser's official store.

        • caprimulgus on 10/12/2020 - 23:35

          That is just saying what the warranty is if it’s new or if it’s refurbished - it doesn’t specify whether this product is one or the other.

        • paloverde88 on 11/12/2020 - 01:09

          refurbished earphones are a no no - some ears are infected and then they just hand me down to you as refurbished yucks but these are rather large like 2 cockle shells hanging out your ears

    • ironpaw on 10/12/2020 - 23:28

      Item description says brand new? Where does it say Refurb?

    $99 is cheap

    I wonder what they do with warranty and refunds within 2 years? Maybe replace in 12 months with V2?

    I'm very tempted! Tho they seem to be played by different issues 😬

  • Ploix on 10/12/2020 - 23:47

    I want to tell you not to buy these because of their discharging issues and lack of responsibility from sennheiser to fix them. But for $100 I would buy them if I didn't already have a pair. But (profanity) sennheiser

    • ChadHominem on 10/12/2020 - 23:56

    Yeah very tempting but crappy battery life and connection issues have killed it for me, apparently they've fixed those issues in the newer versions. Just need the Jabra 75t actives to pop up for $99 and I'll be ready to fight for em haha

    has a battery drain issue (which can be mitigated with this fix by inserting a magnetic USB-C plug - meaning the case will stay charged for about 4 days (so will still need frequent recharging, but not as bad)

    This isn't true. They last about a week in the case when not in use. When you insert a USB-C plug, they don't seem to drain at all—or if they do, it's very slowly.

    I guarantee those complaints were written by someone who hasn't actually used them. The battery drain issues are exaggerated.

    • caprimulgus on 11/12/2020 - 11:41

      Ah cool! I've included that in the description just as a caveat based on the comments on previous deals - I will leave it in there for transparency, because I don't have any experience with them myself, but I'll add a note to this! :)

  • mr_vino89 on 11/12/2020 - 07:23

    awesome deal at $99. do you think JB Hifi will price match it? it might be quicker picking it up from JB and easier to deal with warranty issues through them.

    • [Deactivated] on 11/12/2020 - 07:26
      +2

      JB is a nightmare to deal with for warranty claims in my experience. I'd much rather purchase it direct from Sennheiser.

      • elektron on 11/12/2020 - 07:58

        Yes, have had good experience with them.

      • jubjub on 11/12/2020 - 09:36
        +3

        I bought the v1s from JBs, went there a week or so ago after owning them for almost 12 months and putting up with the battery drain issue. They returned them and upgraded me to the v2s no questions asked, didn't cost me anything. can't get much better than that IMO.

        • [Deactivated] on 11/12/2020 - 09:43
          +3

          I once tried to return $500 blender from JB that had died just after the 12 month manufacturer warranty had ended (but was still covered by ACL obviously) and they flat out refused. Even calling their head office didn't resolve it. I had to go to the Office of Fair Trading to compel them to actually follow the law.

          I avoid JB/TGG as much as I can now.

    • daredevilboy on 12/12/2020 - 00:48

      I asked. They (JB) dont price match from ebay. Even if its official store on ebay. Dude in the store was real nice and also asked manager without asking for it.

  • cheap chip on 11/12/2020 - 07:27

    How does it compare with $99 Airpods 2 😬

    • YeemaiI on 11/12/2020 - 08:34

      This has better sound quality, better fit and sound isolation and more features, all for a much lower price.
      What the AirPods have that these don't is good battery life, and you won't need to buy any… ahem complimentary goods cough cough USB C magnetic cable.

      It has it's flaws, which are well known. And at the RRP these flaws were definitely a dealbreaker! (Hence the bad reviews)

      Could try buy a eBay gift card tomorrow with Zip(10% off) and get these even cheaper.

      • BarginGrabber on 11/12/2020 - 13:20

        May not last until tomorrow.

        There are around 180 left and these are selling at like 300/day.

        So, what I'm gonna do is buy now and then tomorrow, get zip 10% off and buy it again and just cancel the other order

        EDIT: They seem to be adding more slowly every hour, so may last until tomorrow.
