Sennheiser CX Plus True Wireless

The Sennheiser CX Plus True Wireless are good for commute and travel. They're portable, well-built, and have a breathable as well as a fairly comfortable fit. They also have a continuous battery life of under seven hours, which should be enough for long trips on the road. However, while they have an ANC system, it struggles to block out the low rumbles of bus and plane engines.

Not what you’d call a complete success, but when the CX Plus True Wireless are good they’re very good indeed.

Sennheiser’s latest affordable true wireless buds make a solid impression in terms of feature set and design. The sound quality is pleasing, although rivals arguably have the edge here and noise cancellation isn’t the most powerful, either.

The CX Plus True Wireless are excellent all-rounders, with impressive out of the box sound and customisable touch controls. The only problems are the potential connection issues on Android and the frustratingly temperamental Sennheiser companion app.
