Bowers & Wilkins is coming out with a new headphone model. The new Px8 Wireless is available for 400 dollars.
This model is one of the best-looking wireless pairs of headphones available on the market at this moment.
We also must say that the new Bowers & Wilkins Px8 Wireless is the perfect model that has the capabilities to compete with other premium over-ear wireless headphones on the market, for example the Sennheiser Momentum Wireless, Bose QuietComfort 35, Sennheiser PXC 550, and Sony MDR-1000X.
These impressive models all come with active noise cancellation and wireless capabilities. But the new Bowers & Wilkins Px8 Wireless is a straight Bluetooth headphone that also comes with a cord, dedicated to customers who want to go wired and optimize sound quality.
We must say that the new Bowers & Wilkins PX8 Wireless sounds a little bit better in wired mode.
Bowers & Wilkins definitely hit the jackpot with the previous and original PX8 model. It is a good thing that the company decided to keep a similar design on the new PX8 Wireless.
This means that the new Px8 Wireless has the same build quality and comfort level as the previous wired version.
The Bowers & Wilkins Px8 Wireless comes with leather that covers the ear pads and a sturdy metal-infused headband. These details are quite impressive.
Another great thing about this new model is that after a little break-in period, the ear cups offer a tight seal around people’s ears for good passive noise isolation but don’t put such a huge pressure on the head.
The new Bowers & Wilkins PX8 Wireless weighs approximately 318 grams. This means that it weighs 28 grams more than the previous model, the wired PX8.
We also must add that this new model folds up to fit into an included half-moon-shaped carrying case. We love when we see that different manufacturers also add a carrying case to the box.
This is a very welcome thing because customers will be able to carry their new headphones without worrying about breaking them.
The Bowers & Wilkins Px8 Wireless collapses, which is a good thing because it helps to reduce its carrying size, despite the fact that it is not the most compact headphone model on the market.
Moving to the battery, we must say that the company claims that the new Px8 Wireless can go up to 17 hours of playback. This is a very good number, but not a fantastic one, especially for this type of full-size wireless headphones.
People will definitely not have any problem pairing this model with a Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge or iPhone 6S. This means that the new Bowers & Wilkins PX8 Wireless is a real pleasure to use.
In the end, we must say that this new headphone model can also be used for making calls. Thanks to a sidetone feature, people will be able to hear their voice inside the headphones as they talk.
