Over-ear · ANC · 30h · aptX Adaptive · BT 5.2

The Bowers and Wilkins Px7 S3 is the third generation of B&W's mid-range wireless headphone, bringing much of the Px8's audiophile DNA to a more accessible price point. It shares the same 40mm bio-cellulose driver technology as its premium sibling, delivering the rich, detailed sound that has defined B&W speakers for decades. Its standout feature is delivering genuine Bowers and Wilkins sound quality at a significantly lower price than the Px8 S2, making audiophile wireless performance attainable for more listeners. The Px7 S3 is ideal for music lovers who appreciate refined sound and elegant design but find the Px8's price prohibitive. Compared to the Sony WH-1000XM6 at the same $400 price, the Px7 S3 offers a more natural, speaker-like sound while the Sony delivers stronger ANC and longer battery life. With 30 hours of battery, aptX Adaptive support, and a 284-gram frame, it strikes an appealing balance between audio excellence and everyday practicality.
