Sennheiser Consumer Audio PXC 550-II Wireless Bluetooth Over the Ear Headphone with Mic (Black)

This is one of the best headphones I used so far in terms of comfort, convenience, clarity, better etc.

Pros:
These are the lightest of the lot and sits perfectly over your ears and maintains low profile on your head.
Touch works perfectly fine
Auto turn on/off is the best feature which I don’t think any other headphones offer
Connects to your phones instantly as you put them on your head
It also has multi connectivity wherein you can connect 2 devices at once
Mic is the best among all the headphones out there in the market even including momentum 4 (I am using currently)
Batter backup is good enough and gets me through the week on single charge
Sound clarity is not the best but may satisfy most ears. It has crystal clear sound and audible bass not the thumping/ear vibrating bass which Sony headphones offer
Sound stage is decent enough for closed headphones and way better than Sony’s headphones (I tried xm3,4 and xb900n)
I had to replace earcups after more than an year usage (I am a power user. Most of the time you’ll fine them on my head)

Cons:
Micro USB for charging is a big NO. Wish they had type-C for charging
Carry case is bad. Just serves the purpose but not meant for rough usage
Wish it has more bass to it. Momentum 4 solves this issue of bass but it has its own negatives (I’d pick PXC 550 II if given option as I got them for 17k and Momentum 4 for 35k so pretty much double the cost and that’s only for bass and better noise cancellation. Not worth and not needed)
Noise cancelling is almost a joke for these headphones. It is good at cancelling low frequency noises but not the actual chatter and everything

Conclusion:
Sound clarity ✅
Mic quality ✅
Comfort ✅
Convenience ✅
Connectivity ✅
Batter backup ✅
Looks and build quality ✅
Brand ✅
App for equaliser ✅
Ear vibrating bass❌
Type C for charging ❌
Noise cancellation ❌

So it totally depends on what you need. Decide accordingly.

I used Marshall, Jbl, Sony, Bose, koss, audio technica, akg, sennheiser and much more

After a lot of research on various website, finally made my first Over-The-Ear (OTE) wireless headset that I purchased.

Things that concerns me:
Clamping force, Weight, Battery life, Sound and Voice clarity, Multipoint

As I am wearing a progress glasses, a headset with high clamping force that pushes my ears into my glasses temple or ear holder is a big no no. With PXC 550 II, the clamping force is almost negligible and I am comfortable wearing it on my head the whole day

As working from home is a norm nowadays, I have a lot of conference calls through the day, so having a headset that can last me across one or two working days without dying is definitely a plus point. On top of that, voice clarity helps during conferences so that my voice can be heard clearly. Having multipoint connection on BT also helps when i need to take calls on my mobile.

All in all, quite satisfied with my purchase and strongly recommend to anyone looking to buy this. However I took one star off because from time to time, the BT connection to my computer dropped off for no reason (I am using a Windows desktop and notebook) although mobile doesn’t seem to have this issue.

I got this an a replacement for Sennheiser PXC550 2 which stopped working within 14 months and this replacement stopped working within 6 months.
Seems like in India they sell only refurbished products.
Absolutely pathetic state.

The product overall is good, but after 6 months it doesn’t turn on anymore. I’d not buy it again.
