They don't offer a massive amount of sound isolation
So you might have to crank up the volume in noisy environments. And because they're an on-ear pair

Despite not having great sound isolation, Sennheiser's Momentum On-Ears are superb in the audio department and are well worth the £170 price tag. If you're not worried about cranking up the volume in busy areas and you want a pair of premium-looking, s...
Sophisticated, sleek style; Great sound quality; Portable design; Removable cable
Quite pricey; A little uncomfortable to wear for long periods; Doesn't block out much ambient noise
The Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear headphones take the excellent full-size Momentums and compress them into a more compact form. They provide superb sound with a portable design that will be right at home in the fanciest of airport lounges....

In conclusion the Momentum On Ear Headphones are an excellent product, with excellent build quality and design, as well as fantastic audio playback. These headphones are not designed for audiophiles by any means, but the price bracket they sit in are for...

Nice performance for the price, Excellent fit and finish, Available in a number of colors, Solid build quality
Not the most comfortable 'phone on my ears, Flimsy (and gaudy red) iPhone-specific cable, Case is a bit small and not too sturdy
I would recommend the Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear headphones to my audiophile and non-audiophile pals alike, particularly if they're budget-constrained. The sound-quality, build quality, and aesthetic attractiveness are too good to pass up, especially at t...

Though the Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear headphones are one of the best I've ever heard, there's some minor downfalls you should be aware of. If you need a 3.5mm (1/8") to 6.35mm (1/4") adapter, you need to purchase your own because none is included as ...
Abstract: The frequency response is listed as 16 Hz - 22 kHz with 18 ohm impedance. SPL is listed as 112 dB. It certainly played as loud as I could tolerate, with no noticeable distortion.I checked out the sound of the new Momentum with the indy-Brit band Bastille'...

The Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear is a very good sounding on-ear headphone that has a eye-catching modern retro design, is well-built, and comes with a nice carrying case and a second headphone cable with an Apple-friendly integrated remote and microphone...
Headphones are fairly compact but don't fold up or fold flat; may not be quite comfortable enough for some users.
The Sennheiser Momentum On-Ear may not fully match the larger Momentum's excellent sonics, but it gets you 80 percent of the way there.
