The editors didn't like
The touch controls simply aren't responsive enough for more complicated actions such as skipping through multiple tracks. I used them for quickly pausing or resuming my music
But for the most part I'd rely on my music player for anything more demanding
It's pricier than the Bose
While the sound quality is excellent for Bluetooth
It's lacking that little bit of extra sparkle and definition (Sennheiser's own Momentum II Wireless sounds better)

I have to say that the Bluetooth issue is annoying as heck, especially that I use Google Assistant a lot. I'm still hopeful that this could be fixed by a firmware update. Sennheiser PXC550 is my ‘take it with me' choice to work, Premiere Pro CC editing, a...
Abstract: It's time for the ultimate showdown between two of the most highly-rated active noise-cancelling releases in the past few months. Differing in build, similar in features, but what about the sound? More info is here in our Sony MDR-1000X vs Sennheiser PXC...

The Sennheiser PXC 550 retails for around Rs 30,000 and at this price, it is one of the most feature-packed headphones you can get. They deliver good sound quality, have a great build, are wireless, comfortable, can be folded for added portability, and co...

Excellent sound output, Great build quality
Noise cancellation could be better, Touch controls are hit and miss
the Sennheiser PXC 550 provided a great listening experience in the weeks we have had with it. The touch controls maybe a little flimsy, but sound output is still great. Noise cancellation on the other hand, could be better...

The Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless Noise-Cancelling headphone is a powerhouse designed for premium Hi-Fi sound and comfort. A straight competitor to the Bose QuietComfort 35, the PXC 550 will definitely have the attention executive travelers looking to compa...
Even though the PXC 550 is still quite stylish, it is not to the point that you are more worried about how good they look sitting on your head more than the practicalities of them. The PXC 550 is just so versatile in its design, from its folding away capa...

Comfy, innovative, elegant design, Outrageously good battery life, Great sound and a first-class tuning app, Active NC to rival Bose,
Touch controls may not suit some, Volume gesture could be more granular, Non-user-replaceable battery, $50 more expensive than Bose QC35
Take nothing away from Bose – the QC35's are excellent headphones in their own right. But I came out of this test preferring the Sennheiser PXC 550's, for a number of reasons.First, they sound slightly better, and only narrowly fall short of the heights o...
