Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S2e Noise Cancelling Wireless Over Ear Headphones with Qualcomm aptX™ Adaptive & Quick Charge, 30 Hours of Playback and Six Built-In Microphone - Cloud Grey

I’ve had budget headphones for quite a while which were generally fine but I thought it’s high time I upgraded as I’ve been making more of an effort to listen to music recently after spending a few years not doing so as much.B&W are a brand I know fairly well and still have some speakers which are still superb after 20 odd years. That said a lot has changed with the digitisation of audio but I made the splash on these as I wanted something high quality that can pair with modern phones etc. They come nicely packaged in a smart box and the headphones themselves are simple but sleek. A god quality carry case is also included as well as some leads.I have a iPhone 11 and an iPad about 3 years old although will be upgrading former soon. The Bluetooth pairing happened with both in seconds and simple and trouble free. As a slightly out of date PC and Apple user I still have mainly old USB a/b and lightening cables but the headphones use USB-C. Not really a problem but I’m still in that changeover period where I don’t always have the right lead.You can use the headphones straight away without downloading anything extra but there is a B&W app available which gives you some extra controls which I’ll come to. As for control when it comes to using them from an iPhone you just play whatever you want whether it’s through an app or a webpage then it’ll come through Bluetooth to the PX7s. The sound quality is superb and as a dance music lover I require bass but all frequencies are important and they’re all clear. I have found that even modern budget headphones are so much better than say 20 years ago but there’s a clear jump in quality with these PX7s.The iPhone app does also allow you to adjust bass and treble if you want which is useful. As well as that it has settings for how much noise cancelling you want and it’s really noticeable. I’ve found myself more in the moment when wearing these headphones. I live where it’s quiet anyway but it seems more serene with them on with no music.The headphones have a few buttons on for controlling the music, all pretty simple really- just on/off/ Bluetooth, play/pause and volume up and down. They’re well laid out and simply to feel- I have had other headphones where it’s been confusing knowing what you’re pressing.Since receiving them I’ve only had to charge them once and apparently they can last 30 hours off one charge. Comfort wise they are superb, I’ve had them on for about 4 hours and barely notice they’re there. They don’t feel heavy or intrusive in any way.Overall I’m very impressed and I feel like these have made music a bit better for me again. I’ve spent far too long listening through lower quality methods like budget headphones and mini speakers.

Ok so I know people will throw names of hyper expensive headphones at me with the cry of you're wrong these are the best but I'll explain.Over the years I've had quite a few mid range headphones from Sony , Sennheiser etc which I have always thought were really good, great quality build,high performance sound reproduction etc but there was always something not quite right. The biggest problem with all headphones until now was getting my ears in the cup.I know what people will think "my god he most have big ears" and yes they are quite big but they are very long, which means my ear lobe would poke out the bottom,this is quite painful after a few hours!!!I have spent years trying to find some that I could afford and eventually these showed up with an amazing price drop so I purchased straight away.When they arrived I was quite shocked by how good the quality was, these were a hundred quid cheeper than the newest Sony and they are made of really good quality materials.The comfort is amazing,ear cups are an oblong shape so no worries on the space front and these are made of very comfortable memory foam (I think) so I can wear them for hours even with glasses.The performance is really good too, easy to set up with the app, Bluetooth picked up first time and has continued to pair without fail, sound quality is fantastic it has a soft feel but it can hit the bass heavy without loss of treble which is amazing.If you've managed to get this far I'll stop the Bowers and Wilkins fanboy stuff and finish by saying to these are the best headphones I've ever heard and at the price I got them it was a serious bargain, so just go and get some you won't be disappointed!!
