The editors didn't like
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)
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...
In terms of fit and finish; materials build quality; accessorization; and styling, I find the Sennheiser PXC 550 at least a nine out of ten. This is an extremely well thought out and executed design. Comfort is very good. an eight.The user interface touc...

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...

Abstract: Early last month, Sennheiser revealed a successor to the highly-regarded – but now quite old – PXC 450 noise-canceling travel headphones. The stylish PXC 550 s come with an integrated rechargeable battery instead of two AAA-sized replaceables, touch panel...

Powerful, adjustable audio performance with rich bass depth and bright highs, Excellent noise cancellation circuitry, Includes a detachable audio cable for passive listening, Exceptionally comfortable
Control pad is easy to misfire in certain modes, Possible to accidentally power the headphones up or down because of swiveling earcup controls, Digital signal processing is not for purists
The Sennheiser PXC 550 headphones deliver excellent Bluetooth audio and noise cancellation in a feature-packed—if occasionally problematic—design...
Abstract: Noise cancelling headphones were originally aimed almost completely at air travellers. If you're a regular traveller you'll know how loud aeroplanes can be and if you want to work on a flight it's a major problem. Sennheiser refers to this in their market...
There is quite a lot of choice if you're looking for headphones with noise cancellation, that much is certain. Bose offers the best noise cancellation out of the models we tested, but we felt more pressure on our ears, which is remarkable. The Sennheiser...
