WEBVTT 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:06.319 Lionus Tech Tips coverage of CES 2015 is brought to you by Phantom Glass. Visit 00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:10.160 store.fantom.glass for the best darn screen protectors here 00:00:07.919 --> 00:00:13.920 at Sennheiser. They're celebrating 70 years with some pretty interesting 00:00:12.160 --> 00:00:19.279 products. Some of them are small refreshes. So, this is the Momentum Onar 00:00:16.400 --> 00:00:25.439 2.0. Basically, the only changes is that now that lightweight metal band design 00:00:22.880 --> 00:00:29.119 folds bippity boop just like that. That is about it. But other than that, same 00:00:26.880 --> 00:00:34.640 materials, same drivers, same everything. The Momentum Onyear 2.0 00:00:32.160 --> 00:00:39.680 actually has a couple of more changes. So, this one does fold, 00:00:37.120 --> 00:00:44.160 but also gets an upgrade to the ear cup material as well as the ear cup size. 00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:48.800 So, folks who were complaining that with the old Momentum over ear, they felt 00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:52.879 more like an onar cuz it pressed down against their earlobes, that shouldn't 00:00:50.960 --> 00:00:56.800 be nearly as much of an issue anymore. Now, both of these haven't changed in 00:00:54.559 --> 00:01:02.160 terms of pricing. So, it's $2.29 for the onar and $3.49 for the overear. But 00:01:00.079 --> 00:01:06.560 where they really shook things up is right here. Now, this looks just like a 00:01:04.080 --> 00:01:09.280 regular Urbanite XL. In fact, if I were to tell you that it was one, you 00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:13.760 probably wouldn't know any differently because the Urbanite XL has a detachable 00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:18.080 cable. And in fact, this one does, too. But now, it's wireless. So, for another 00:01:15.439 --> 00:01:21.600 50 bucks over the regular Urbanite XL, you get wireless functionality. It's 00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:25.600 Bluetooth. I actually don't have a quoted battery life for this one, but 00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:29.200 this one does about 15 hours battery life. So, you're going to get that same 00:01:27.280 --> 00:01:33.600 ruggedness and durability, that same foldability and travel ability, that 00:01:31.360 --> 00:01:38.479 same sound signature, however it is that you personally feel about that now with 00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:44.159 wireless Bluetooth 4.0, all that good stuff. And that one's $300. And then, 00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:48.399 wow, I just dropped a $500 pair of headphones in front of Sennheiser, and 00:01:46.399 --> 00:01:54.079 I'm getting the nervous laughter over there. Wow. Oh, so this is the Momentum 00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:58.960 Overear wireless. I just mentioned the price. They're $500. They haven't 00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:02.479 changed the acoustic quality compared to the Momentum Overears. Extremely well 00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:06.000 regarded. But what they have done is they've given it the Momentum 2.0 00:02:04.240 --> 00:02:11.840 treatment. So, you've got those nice thick nice larger ear cushions on it. It 00:02:09.200 --> 00:02:17.120 does still fold just like that. It charges via micro USB. But this one, and 00:02:15.280 --> 00:02:21.040 aside from just plain sounding better than the Urbanite XL, no offense if you 00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:25.040 really like your Urbanite XL, has some really cool technology inside. So you 00:02:22.560 --> 00:02:29.920 get 22 hours of playback or two weeks of standby. And you get five microphones. 00:02:28.480 --> 00:02:35.120 It's like, yeah, you're buying two speakers and five microphones. So one of 00:02:32.720 --> 00:02:39.599 them is for voice. Yes, you can hold a conversation with them. Four of them are 00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:42.480 for noise cancellation. So active noise cancellation on this bad boy. We tried 00:02:41.040 --> 00:02:47.040 it out here on the show floor. actually the only audio thing that makes any 00:02:45.040 --> 00:02:50.959 sense to try on a show floor. Pretty impressive so far. Compared to the 00:02:48.959 --> 00:02:53.360 QC15s, which are the only other really well- reggarded active noise 00:02:52.160 --> 00:02:57.599 cancellation headphone that I've personally tried, I get less of that 00:02:55.760 --> 00:03:00.400 feeling of pressure on my ears, but I'd need to spend quite a bit more time with 00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:03.920 them to really give you guys my thoughts. Um, I forget where I was 00:03:02.800 --> 00:03:09.280 really going with that. Right. So, active noise cancellation. This is something I haven't really seen much of 00:03:07.200 --> 00:03:13.360 from Sennheiser in the past. controls are over here on the back of the right 00:03:11.280 --> 00:03:17.440 ear cup. So, you've got your power as well as volume a volume up and down 00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:22.560 slider that you press in order to play or pause. And then finally, there's your 00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:26.400 micro USB as well as you can still wire them up should you so desire. But if 00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:29.680 you're going to go and pay $500 for ball and wireless headphones, you're probably 00:03:27.760 --> 00:03:34.480 going to use them wirelessly mostly, unless your battery runs out of course. 00:03:32.239 --> 00:03:38.560 So, that is pretty much it for the Momentum and Urbanite updates, guys. 00:03:36.799 --> 00:03:42.879 Hope you enjoy all of our show coverage. I want to take a little bit of time to 00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:47.120 thank our sponsors. So, these guys, you know, the guys that let me take my phone 00:03:44.560 --> 00:03:50.720 and like do this with it and like rub it all over everything and not care even 00:03:48.720 --> 00:03:53.840 though it's an iPhone 6. Yeah, that corner right there. I'm getting a I'm 00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:57.920 getting a look from these guys over here. They're like, "What is he doing?" This is my Phantom Glass screen 00:03:56.480 --> 00:04:02.480 protector. These guys make awesome screen protectors. They're made of Gorilla Glass 3, so they're perfectly 00:04:00.959 --> 00:04:06.080 clear. You can't tell the difference when you touch them. They go on without 00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:10.000 any bubbles whatsoever thanks to their nano coating and they're just plain 00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:13.360 awesome.
