Design and Features
The Accentum Clip attaches to the outer ear using a flexible hook, avoiding silicone tips that go inside the ear canal.
This design allows users to stay aware of their surroundings while listening.
Each earbud weighs 6.8 grams, and the charging case brings the total to 57 grams.

The earbuds come in Cream White and Classic Black, with an IP54 rating for protection against light rain and sweat.
For audio, Sennheiser uses a 12mm dynamic driver.
An internal damping system reduces sound leakage, and a Dynamic Equalizer adjusts frequency response based on volume—boosting bass and details at low volumes and flattening at higher levels.
The earbuds support SBC, AAC, and LDAC codecs for high-resolution wireless playback. Bluetooth 6.0 enables multipoint connectivity, allowing simultaneous connection to a phone and computer.

Environmental noise cancellation (ENC) filters background noise during calls.
Touch panels on the back of each earbud control playback and calls, with smart pause and single-earbud support.
Customization, including EQ and control mapping, is available through the Sennheiser Smart Control Plus app on iOS and Android.
