Got senheiser momentum 4 from amazon a few days back, it was working great until tonight, when I picked it up it now its dead, power button isn't working, LEDs are not responding. Full details here: https://www.reddit.com/r/sennheiser/comments/1ti4dfk/brand\_new\_momentum\_4\_not\_turning\_on\_anymore/

Since its brand new I thought I'll get it replaced from amazon. But its offering me only a service center replacement. Is there any way to get around it? I'm also willing to return it and get a refund.

I got these a few days back and have been loving it ever since, zero issues until today. I was using em just a couple hours back, put it down on my bed, and now it just doesn't turn on anymore. Literally dead.

The battery was around 90%. Plugging in the charger does nothing, pressing and holding the power button does nothing, there are no lights or sound from the headphones.

Is there any other option besides an RMA? Amazon here doesn't even allow replacements, service center is the only way.

EDIT: after plugging in charger for 5 mins i just decided to wear the thing and wtf, it was playing the pairing mode sound effect. I had to unpair and pair the device from my phone. Battery is showing 10% (wtf??? I could swear it was 90% this evening and I didn't even use it since). I played some music but the sound was distorted. The LEDs and power button still dont respond. It is still charging and the right side of the headphone is getting unusually warm(?!)

EDIT2: still doesnt work even after "charging". no power button, no leds.

How did this happen when the bin files CRC checks passed ?

I am a YT premium user. Is it possible for the web client to play music at 256kbps opus (format id 774) ? As it seems to be the highest supported quality, android client uses the same too. I already have playback quality set to high in settings.

But doesn't seem to be working through the gui yet, will do it through the terminal later today.

Picked these up yesterday for ~$190 converted. Upgraded from the soundcore space one. And holy sh!t does it live up to the hype... I don't think I've heard music this crisp and clear ever before in my life. The sound stage, instrument separation, drums, cymbals, everything is so precise especially after the personalized sound tuning. Mind=blown.

Sounds way better than the Sony Xm4 and Xm5 I've tried from my friends. And if I'm being honest, the ANC isn't even that bad at all. It's a big upgrade from the soundcore for sure. Sony's ANC makes me dizzy.

Only con I have is lacking the ability to customize the touch gestures, it can only be turned on or off.

Edit: The battery life is insane. It was at 40% for the past 3 hours and just dropped to 30% now.

And holy shit it does live up to the hype... I don't think I've heard music this crisp and clear ever before in my life.

Senheiser Momentum 4, my new love. Got these from amazon @ 17k.

Doesn't get closer than this. Wonder what's the criteria for ranking when the timing is the same to the millisecond ?

Almost wish i had pushed a bit harder to win instead of this mf.

It's a cheap strip of leds connected to AC power through a small driver, there's like 30 of them. Couple months old. But for some reason only exactly the first 7 LEDs have this burn mark and they're also dimmer than the rest of them (notice the last pic). What could be the cause for this?

I have brown (tanned) combination-oily skin. I've tried many sunscreens but most of them leave my skin looking oily and dirty, feeling suffocated. So far I've only found reequil and neutrogena that works.

Then I just stumbled upon this one and looks good on paper. Anyone can relate to what I said and tried this, a brief review please? Is it really "super matte" as they claim?

As someone who lived in hsr during 2016-23 and returned to visit a friend yesterday, what happened here? I remember there being a lot more stalls and bustling with people. Now on a Sunday 8pm, there's not a peep, almost like returning to a ghost town. Nearly ALL of the stalls have been shut down entirely or moved. Why did this happen?

Even the A2B which sticks out like a sore thumb now, was looking quite depressing and empty in the inside while babai tiffins at 19th main was packed with people waiting in queues (rightly so, its goated). And my favourite of them all, the casio store/service center is gone too 💔 Countless memories of this little complex now turned into a relic of the past.
