Sennheiser CX Plus true wireless earbuds review: Splendid surround sound, deep bass

Sennheiser -- German audio giant -- recently launched its premium look CX Plus True Wireless and CX True Wireless earbuds in the Indian market. We've got our hands on the CX Plus True Wireless -- the superior version of the two. It's one of the most elegantly designed, splash resistant earbuds, with superior music and call experience. Afters using the earbuds for over two weeks, we can say that the headphones are made for a full throttle music+gaming experience. The earbuds are perfect for listening house music, deep house, watching movies etc.

When listening to songs, you will be impressed by the bass it has to offer. The smooth surround sound don't miss even the minutely detailed engineered sound. The bass is very good, and does not hamper the speech or lyrics. Even on low volume, it offers amazing clarity.

Design-wise it feels premium, plus a bundle of touch control gestures enahce an overall listening experience.

Comfortable fit in ears. Adjustable treble and bass give you more access to adjust music experience depending on your liking. Adjustable fit with 4 different size ear gels (buds).
