Verdict

The Sennheiser Accentum Plus Wireless is a mid-range over-ear headphone featuring 37mm dynamic drivers, Bluetooth 5.2 with aptX Adaptive support, and Hybrid Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that dynamically adjusts to your environment. It boasts a class-leading 50-hour battery life with a quick-charge feature providing 5 hours of playback from a 10-minute charge, alongside intuitive touch controls, wear detection for auto-pause, and versatile connectivity via a 3.5mm analog jack and USB-C audio. Main pros include its exceptionally long battery life, lightweight 227g ergonomic design, and a refined, bass-forward sound signature that offers great value for its price point. However, some cons include a predominantly plastic build that can feel less premium than flagship models, a lack of an official IP rating for water resistance, and occasional reports of high clamping force during extended listening sessions.

What customers dislike about Sennheiser Accentum Plus Wireless?

  • ANC performance is decent but not class-leading compared to premium flagships
  • Clamping force can feel a bit tight for users with larger heads
  • In-app EQ adjustments can be fiddly and may noticeably reduce overall audio volume
  • No option to completely turn off both ANC and Transparency modes through the controls
  • Heavily plastic build quality can feel somewhat cheap given the mid-range price point
  • Microphone performance is only average at rejecting background noise in loud environments
  • Headphones only fold flat and do not collapse into a more compact form factor
