It\u2019s a sign<\/span> of just how feral the market for true wireless in-ear headphones<\/a> has become that even a brand with nothing to prove has it all to do every time<\/em> it launches a new product.<\/p>\n

Sennheiser is just the latest manufacturer to realize there\u2019s no laurel-resting available where true wireless in-ears are concerned. Its new Accentum True Wireless arrive in a sector of the market where \u201cpretty good\u201d is nothing like good enough. And it doesn\u2019t matter who you are, what your reputation is like, or how long you\u2019ve been a player. The question is always: \u201cWhat have you done for me lately?\u201d<\/p>\n

And on first acquaintance, Sennheiser doesn\u2019t seem to have done itself any favors with the Accentum True Wireless. They are certainly helpfully compact; the charging case in which the earbuds travel is just 1.1 x 1.9 x 2.0 inches and 40 grams, and each earbud weighs a mere 5.4 grams. But the plastic from which each component is made feels hard and slippery, and not in any way premium. The fact that the quality of build and finish is typically Sennheiser<\/a>\u2014which is another way of saying it\u2019s beyond reproach\u2014doesn\u2019t help the Accentum True Wireless look or feel even remotely upmarket.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, considering the above, these have managed to win a Red Dot design award. Perhaps this is down to the shape of the earbuds being carefully ergonomic? While the \u201clozenge\u201d section looks unpromisingly chunky, the security of the fit is reassuring, and long-term comfort is all but guaranteed. Four pairs of different-size silicone eartips in the packaging don\u2019t do any harm in this respect, either.<\/p>\n
