Sennheiser ACCENTUM Plus review: Solid mid-range

The ACCENTUM Plus Bluetooth headphones from Sennheiser offer a great balance between audio quality, battery life, noise cancellation and price.

Pros

  • Exceptional battery life
  • Custom sound profile feature means the headphones sound great
  • Adaptive ANC does a good job blocking external sounds

Cons

  • Touch controls are a bit finnicky
  • I didn't love the default audio setting
  • Can get a bit uncomfortable wearing with glasses

Sennheiser’s ACCENTUM Plus headphones aren’t competing with the premium Sonos Ace and AirPods Max of the world.

These headphones are designed to bring a lot of that premium experience into a lower-cost, more accessible price bracket.

And when you consider the combination of specs you get for the $399.95 RRP (but often reduced to under $280 in store), it’s difficult to find too much to complain about with these headphones.

The audio quality is solid, battery life is stellar, and the noise-cancelling is good.

The default audio mix doesn’t quite hit the right balance for my personal tastes, but the fact you can adjust it in Sennheiser’s app means that’s not an issue at all.
