The Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless Noise-Cancelling headphone is a powerhouse designed for premium Hi-Fi sound and comfort. A straight competitor to the Bose QuietComfort 35, the PXC 550 will definitely have the attention executive travelers looking to compa...
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...
The Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless is very comfortable, relatively lightweight over-ear wireless headphone that sounds very good and features impressive noise-cancellation technology. It has touch controls and delivers excellent performance as a headset. Goo
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)
While it doesn't quite eclipse the less-expensive Bose, the Sennheiser PXC 550 Wireless headphone is comfortable and feature packed, and performs very well...

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...
The Sennheiser PXC550 seems to be a pretty decent pair of active noise cancelling wireless headphones which can be found for a good price. It has a fairly neutral, slightly warm tone, with good noise cancelling quality and excellent beamforming microphone...
If there's been any guiding principle for Sennheiser's approach to the high-end audio market, it's been that you don't have to be an audiophile to want genuinely good sound. The PXC 550 Wireless embody this sentiment to a tee. While they're a little on th...
Familiarity will aid enjoyment of the PXC 550s. The controls are unintuitive to a new user, but if you digest the full manual they certainly deliver an excellent sound. Play with the many EQ options, but always compare the results with flat performance, b...
