Sennheiser’s sporty Momentums combine cutting-edge sensors with a quirky design, but are they an elite athlete accessory?

Beats has announced its Solo 4 headphones, and ahead of our full review we've taken a quick listen for some first impressions.

Despite being well-furnished with features and made to Sony’s high standards, the ULT Wear suffer from an unrefined, somewhat overbearing sonic character.

The Final ZE8000 MK2 are a well-furnished and detailed-sounding pair of wireless earbuds, but stiff competition and a few sonic niggles could hinder their progress to the very top.

Austrian Audio’s flagship headphones are beautifully made and set sky-high standards.

With improved battery life, noise cancellation and a handful of new features, can the Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2 keep up with the pack?
