- In this video, we are going to be comparing
the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3
versus the 1MORE EVO.
I'll also be including microphone samples
of both of these earbuds,
so be sure to stick around to the end.
So now, let's just jump straight in.
Now, first things first,
let's talk about the connectivity, right?
So connectivity on both the 1MORE EVO
and the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3.
Now, while they both feature Bluetooth 5.2
along with high-res codecs,
the MOMENTUM's are featuring aptX Adaptive,
the 1MORE's are featuring LDAC.
Only, only the 1MORE EVO right here
are featuring a functioning multi-point connectivity.
So, at least as of the making of this video,
so with multi-point, I can easily have both of these,
or sorry, I can easily have the 1MORE's connected
to both my Xiaomi 11 Lite right here,
as well as my iPhone 12 pro.
So I can then connect them to both
whichever one I wanna use.
So if I wanna use the burner, I can take calls on that.
If I wanna use my main line, I can take calls on that.
So no big deal.
So that's how that multi point connectivity is working
for your boy.
So as far as we know right now,
Sennheiser will be bringing multi point
over the air firmware update
to the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3s.
But as of the making of this video,
that has not been released yet.
So we just have to wait for them to pull that off.
But for connectivity right now,
the win is going to go to the 1MORE EVO.
So that's gonna bring us over to the battery life
on the 1MORE EVO
versus the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3.
So when it comes to noise cancellation turned on,
on the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3,
I managed to get four hours in 51 minutes,
that's with noise cancellation turned on,
and with the 1MORE EVO,
I managed to get four hours and six minutes.
Now, to be clear that's with LDAC on this one
and Aptex on this one.
So battery life here is gonna be a win here
for the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3.
Now, I wouldn't say that either of these battery lives
are particularly great when in full usage like that,
but it's what we expect
when we're talking about some high end earbuds
that are packed in higher res codex.
Plus, my testing is also done at 75% volume.
So that's something you wanna keep in mind,
but overall, and then also,
so we can throw that in there,
with noise cancellation turned off,
I can get almost seven hours outta the MOMENTUMs,
and the EVO I get about six and a half hours.
So they're pretty close neck and neck
with noise cancellation turned off,
but just something to keep in mind.
But for battery life as close as it is,
the win's gonna go to the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3.
So now let's move over to comfort
because comfort is one of the most important,
important features
when it comes to any set of true wireless earbuds
because if they ain't comfortable,
you can't enjoy your music.
So this is why it's one of the most important things.
Now, obviously comfort is highly subjective.
Everybody's ears are different,
but I'm just gonna base this off my own ears
and my experience.
So for me, comfort here,
the win is gonna go to the 1MORE EVO.
So while both of these are comfortable for my large ears,
the small compact size and ergonomic shape
of the 1MORE EVO's earbuds is more compatible with my ears.
Now that's just a personal level.
Now they have a lighter feeling in the ear,
especially, especially when they're being used
with something like a spin fit CP1025.
That's what I've got on 'em right here.
That's the spin fit ear tips right there.
So super comfortable lightweight.
So the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3 are slightly larger,
but the win here is easy for comfort for the 1MOREs.
Now, on the other hand, on the other hand,
we've also got stability, right?
So grip.
So that's for all my people out there
that are joggers, runners, doing sports, workouts, gym rats,
anybody doing that stuff,
when it comes to grip, the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3,
they're gonna take the win.
So they've got these wing tips right here.
Now I've got the smaller wing tips on there,
but they have a couple of different sizes
that are included in the package,
but that gives them exceptional grip.
If you're familiar
with using something like the galaxy buds,
they also had these like wing tips
that helped them just really sit securely inside your ear.
That's what's gonna give the Sennheisers the win
for grip and stability.
Now moving over to the app support.
Now both of these have app support.
For 1MORE, you have the 1MORE music app,
for Sennheiser, you have the Sennheiser smart control.
So both of these apps work quite well.
They're both available for both iOS and Android devices,
but the Sennheiser app is far more fleshed out,
there's way more features, it's more functional.
So for me, it's the better app.
Also, it benefits from having higher budgets.
It's been developed for a much longer period of time.
So while they both work,
the Sennheiser one gives you much more control.
You get full EQ support, you can make your own presets.
You also can change all of the different touch controls,
and that's a big, big thing.
So for support, app support,
the win goes for Sennheiser.
Also, just to throw this in there,
for touch controls, one more,
if you wanna see my full review,
I'll leave a link to that in the video description.
The 1MORE EVO, the touch controls are janky.
You can't really adjust them the way
that you should be able to.
With Sennheiser, you can fully program all of the controls.
So that's a big, big W for Sennheiser
when it comes to controls as well.
So now let's move over,
and let's get into the meat and potatoes here.
Let's get into some of that performance
that we all know and love.
So first up, let's start with the ambient mode.
So now let me go ahead and pop these up in once again.
So as you see, we're doing B roll on the fly here.
For ambient sound, once again,
the win goes to the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3.
And the reason I'm saying that
is because they have a more natural sounding ambient mode
along with providing control over how much ambient noise
you wanna let in.
They actually have a slider
where you can make that adjustment.
So you can have as much white noise
or as little white noise as you want,
totally up to you.
And the EVO, they have a decent dual mode ambient.
So basically, they have one where it's full pass through
and another one that focuses on voices,
but there isn't a huge difference between the two modes.
But when you put them both back to back,
listen to 'em both side by side,
you can really tell the difference here
between Sennheiser and 1MORE
when it comes to the ambient sound,
it's an easy win for Sennheiser
when it comes to the ambient.
Now, let's move over to the active noise cancellation.
Now, for active noise cancellation testing,
I use 85 decibels of airliner or cabin noise,
along with 75 decibels worth of crowd noise for testing.
Now, this was a close one.
If you guys are hearing me, this is a close test here.
So I tested both with using the spin fit CP1025 tips
along with comply 200 memory foam tips.
So I wanted to test for both
to see how things would play out.
Now, the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3,
they edge out the EVO with silicone tips in use,
like they just edge them out by a bit
but you can tell the difference.
It is very, very noticeable
when not so much in the crowd noise test,
but in the cabin noise test the airliner test,
these block out more noise with silicone tips.
Now with foam tips, it was pretty much a tie.
And I think that's because the foam,
they passively isolate so much noise,
but with silicone tips,
the same tips on both of these earbuds,
the Sennheisers have stronger active noise cancellation.
Now, just wanna make this clear,
even though the Sennheisers are winning
this active noise cancellation test,
the 1MOREs are there nothing to scoff at.
Their noise cancellation power
for the price that they're bringing
and the fact that they can go toe to toe
with the Sennheisers for noise cancellation,
kudos to 1MORE for bringing that power,
but a win is a win,
so we have to give that to Sennheiser.
Now let's move over to the volume.
So sound volume, right?
How loud do they get.
The MOMENTUM True Wireless 3
are pulling in 116.2 decibels.
The 1MORE EVO are pulling in 113.7 decibels.
So a little bit under 3DB worth of difference.
Now, to be clear,
both of 'em get more than louder enough for me
and for most human beings, but a win is a win.
The Sennheisers, they definitely get louder.
It is noticeable when you're listening to 'em.
But once again, both of 'em,
they get more than loud enough for me and most people.
They're loud enough to damage your hearing,
so just keep that in mind.
But now let's talk about sound quality.
Let's get into the sound quality here.
So once again,
this was probably the toughest test
that I had to do between the two of these.
I really had to go back to back.
I had to really handpick some specific tracks,
really listen back and forth, back and forth, back and forth
to see exactly what I was getting here.
Now, while both of these have top tier sound quality,
it's always gonna ultimately come down
to your own personal preferences.
So with the 1MOREs,
now I can't say this enough,
the 1MOREs have S tier sound quality.
S tier, top tier, just very, very good,
I can't say this enough.
The only thing holding them back
is the fact that you're forced to use their sound ID
as opposed to a graphic equalizer.
So only thing holding them back
because you get sketchy results with the sound ID.
Sometimes it's good,
sometimes it can be bad, it can be very hit or miss.
So that's the only thing holding them back.
That said, the EVO bring everything you want.
Deep base extension, a warm rich mid-range,
and crisp travel.
But that being said,
with the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3,
you get that excellent base response.
It digs deep, it rumbles nicely.
The mids are more neutral and relaxed
but without being muddy.
So they still bring excellent clarity
for both male and female vocals.
The trouble is a bit more laid back,
but it also provides airiness and clarity
to horns and strings and symbols if you're somebody
who's into more instrumental type of music.
Overall, the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3
bring a more cohesive sound
that creates a better listening experience
in my own personal opinion.
Now, if you happen to own both of these,
if you happen to own both of these earbuds,
I really recommend you try a song
by Chicano called "Sabor a Mi,"
basically so that you can hear the subtle differences
in the mid base and the clarity and the trouble
between both of these options.
That was the song
where I was really able to start to start picking apart
where one shined over the other.
So once again, it's a song by El Chicano
called "Sabor a Mi," that's the song.
So now, let's go ahead
and move over to some microphone quality samples.
This way you can hear both of these
back to back to see which one is gonna work best for you.
Right, so here we have the microphone test
for the Senheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3.
Testing testing, one, two, three.
Obviously, I'm indoors in a semi quiet room.
So testing, testing, one, two, three.
All right, so here we have the microphone test
for the 1MORE EVO.
Testing, testing, one, two, three,
obviously I'm indoors in a semi quiet room.
So testing, testing, one, two, three.
And here we have the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3
in a simulated crowd noise environment.
So something like a busy bar,
a crowded restaurant or something along those lines.
So testing, testing, one, two, three.
And here we have the 1MORE EVO
in a simulated crowd noise environment.
So something like a busy bar,
a crowded restaurant, or something along those lines.
So, testing, testing, one, two, three.
As always, you're gonna have
to be the judge of the microphone quality
down in the comment section.
Now, allow me to give you my final verdict here.
So the 1MORE EVO are still an excellent value
coming in at under 150 bucks.
The fact that they can actually go toe to toe
with the MOMENTUM True Wireless 3,
it speaks volumes of the sheer performance
coming from an earbud at this price point.
Now, while both of these options are top tier competitors,
one of these obviously outperforms the other
in most categories.
So if you're looking for peak performance across the board,
the obvious choice
is going to be the Sennheiser MOMENTUM True Wireless 3.
But if you're not interested in spending
over 200 bucks on a set of earbuds
and still want that top tier performance,
check out the video that I'm gonna leave for you
right up here on the screen.
With that said, my name is Jefe,
and I'm out this bitch.
