Bowers & Wilkins PX7 Over-ear noise-canceling wireless headphones
Built from legend
Bowers & Wilkins PX7 are high performance over-ear headphones designed to deliver the highest quality mobile personal audio experience combined with the convenience of wireless operation and the serenity of noise-cancellation.
The 43mm drivers in the PX7 are the largest in our headphone collection, built and tuned by the same engineers behind the Bowers & Wilkins 800 Series diamond speakers used in Abbey road studios
Adaptive noise cancellation | PX7 features our latest innovations in adaptive noise cancellation, this includes intelligent sensing that adapts noise cancellation and tuning best suited to your surrounding environment. As your surroundings change, noise cancellation will auto adapt to complement your new environment. |
Wear Sensors | PX7 incorporates our latest enhanced wear detection sensors in both earpieces, enabling intelligent battery conservation by entering standby when removed from the head. When worn again, PX7 automatically wakes and connects to the last connected Bluetooth device. |
Ambient Pass-Through | Allows some external noise from the surrounding environment, such as safety announcements or conversations, to be heard without taking the headphones off. |
Multi-Function | Connect up to 2 devices at the same time and when streaming audio, receiving a call on the second device will automatically pause playback and the call will be routed automatically to your headphones. Ending the call will automatically resume playback from the first device. |
aptX Adaptive | No matter what you're listening to, hear what you were meant to hear. The new aptX Adaptive codec gives you pure, unmatched audio, whether you're traveling, moving, or standing still in the sound. |

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews
Customers are mixed about the noise cancelling. Some mention that the sound is great, they like to hear natural and neutral audio, and the lows are easily heard all the way down to 10Hz. However, others say that all 3 headphones did not sound near as crisp and punchy as their closed back's.
"...I only turn on ANC on flights. The effect on sound quality is barely perceptible and the suppression of the noise is effective enough for my ears...." Read more
"...Active noise cancellation...." Read more
"...I love their neutral audio balance. The bass is definitely there and you hear it clearly and audibly, but it's not going to kick you in the head...." Read more
"...But for me it means the sound is precise and spacious and lively. I'm not sure what that means technically, but I know how it sounds...." Read more
Customers like the comfort of the headphones. They mention that they are flexible, don't budge when they move their head, and have a better feeling. Some say that the form and fit are comfortable, with no strain on their ears or neck. They also appreciate the ergonomic design and the fact that the headband is not too tight.

"...* Comfort. This pair is very good but maybe not quite as good as the Quiet Comforts...." Read more
"...The PX7s are durable, made with brushed carbon fiber (same material that you'll see on Ferrari or Lambourghini cars in some cases)...." Read more
"...have a much better battery life, much better ANC, a hard case, better feeling and more distinguishable buttons (seem crisper and better built),..." Read more
Customers like the appearance of the headphones. They say it has an absolutely stunning design, and is equally beautiful for watching movies and TV. Customers also mention that the look and feel of the product is perfect, and the exterior makes them look distinct and refined. They also say the app is an aesthetic improvement over the old app for the PX, and presents them perfectly.
"...The app is an aesthetic improvement over the old app for the PX, but rather basic at the moment - no EQ. The Sony and Bose apps are better developed...." Read more

Customers are mixed about the build quality of the headphones. Some mention that they're of good quality, while others say that they have lower quality components and construction. The sound was decent but just not good enough for a $350 pair of headphones. They broke in less than two years.
"...The upside is of course comfortable. It still feels more premium than the Sonys and Bose QC35...." Read more
"...Here's a breakdown:* Sound. These headphones are fantastic. Not too opinionated, not too much base—just right...." Read more

Customers are mixed about the connectivity of the headphones. Some mention that dual device pairing worked well, while others say that it ceased to work. The wireless connectivity works reliably, and can be connected to two devices. However, some customers report issues with the mic and volume controls not working with wired connection.

"Wearing them as I write this…These are nice headphones for the price, but not perfect...." Read more
"...That being said.. AirPods Max are amazing and worth the price. Transparent mode was so good I actually heard my voice as others hear it...." Read more
Customers are mixed about the fit of the headphones. Some mention that the speaker units fit nicely over ear while not being uncomfortable with too much pressure. The phone's ear cup is large so it can cover the ears completely without pressing. They are very comfortable and stay in place while moving about. However, others say that they are tight fit for a person with a small head, a little big, and barely fit over their ears.
"...Next, along with the neutral audio balance, the positioning of the sound stage is superior to the competition...." Read more
"...These fold flat and are quite portable without the case. But the case is pretty large compared to the Sony XM3...." Read more
"...But for me it means the sound is precise and spacious and lively. I'm not sure what that means technically, but I know how it sounds...." Read more

Pros
1. Sound quality is undoubtedly the best among all the above. Clean, wide soundstage, extreme clarity. Bass is on point. If you are a bass head, please look elsewhere. At the time of writing this review, B&W does not provide an equalizer in-app. So you cannot tune the bass even if you wanted to. I expect that B&W will resolve this in a future app update. But the default sound works well for my ears. The Sonys are more boomy and muddled in terms of bass and is pleasant enough. The Bose N700 is just bad in terms of sound quality. The Sennheisers and Master and Dynamic M65 are perhaps close in terms of sound quality.
2. (Auto-)ANC is great. There are some who prefer the stronger ANC of the Sony and Boses. I never liked the ANCs on those because the pressure in my ear gets too discomforting and the hit on sound quality is significant. I'd rather have a bit of noise than ear pressure. The PX7 has somehow managed to incorporate ANC that does not cause any pressure at all. In most instances, I leave ANC off since the passive NC is good enough. I only turn on ANC on flights. The effect on sound quality is barely perceptible and the suppression of the noise is effective enough for my ears. The Sennheisers and Master and Dynamic M65 have much worse ANC.
3. Comfort. These are miles ahead of the predecessor PX. I love my PX, but the clamp force is too strong and it does not fit all ears. The PX is also much heavier. The PX7 resolves all this with a much lighter carbon fiber construction. Clamp force is still quite strong but nowhere as strong as the PX. That said, the Sonys and the Bose QC35s are still more comfortable. I only have the PX7 for a week thus far. Maybe the clamp force will continue to decrease with time. Even at the current moment, there are no issues with hours of listening. But this obviously will depend on the shape of your head.
4. The Bluetooth 5 connectivity seems to be great. I had sporadic connection issues with the other headphones and none absolutely with the PX7 so far. The fact that you can connect two devices at once is a great advantage over the Sony XM3. For example, I use my phone for music when walking to my flight and go into my iPad for movie watching seamlessly when I am in my seat.
5. Misc. Auto-pause works as great as in the PX. The auto ANC mode seems to work well, though I generally prefer to control the ANC manually. The app is an aesthetic improvement over the old app for the PX, but rather basic at the moment - no EQ. The Sony and Bose apps are better developed. Master and Dynamic has no app whatsoever.
6. Power. These charges on USB-C like the other flagships. I have no issues with any USB C source. This cannot be said for the Sennheiser, which are extremely fussy in terms of power source, e.g., I cannot charge the Momentum 3s using my MacBook Pro’s charger! Battery life is great.
7. Design. Matter of taste, but the Master and Dynamic M65 has the best design in my opinion and the previous PX is a close second. Maybe the Bose N700 is third. The PX7 does feel cheaper than PX because it is no longer metal and hefty. The upside is of course comfortable. It still feels more premium than the Sonys and Bose QC35.
To summarize, this is certainly the best ANC headphone at the current moment. It is expensive but on par with other new flagships. The sound quality is unrivaled. The ANC is a matter of taste, but if you are someone who hates uncomfortable, strong ANC, these are for you. Comfort is much better over PX, but Sonys still win on this.
Minor update
----------------
1. Portability. These fold flat and are quite portable without the case. But the case is pretty large compared to the Sony XM3. Weight + volume - Sony XM3 definitely more portable.
Next, along with the neutral audio balance, the positioning of the sound stage is superior to the competition. The drivers are pointed forward at about 30-45 degrees, so it sounds like your face is right in front of a speaker and the sound comes from right in front of you, then forms around your head and into your ears. At least, that's what it sounds like to me after my ears adjusted.
The only set-back is the microphone on these. Yes, you can take phone calls using the Bluetooth features, but good luck trying to get your friends to understand what you're saying. It's best to use these strictly as an audio listening device, forget the phone call features.
Apart from the lack of microphone functionality, the REST OF THE FUNCTIONS ARE INCREDIBLE for these headphones. They know (most of the time) when they're being taken off or onto your head and over your years, they'll pause the music when one or both of the ear cups are not on your ears. They come with a USB cable that serves not only as a charger, but also WORKS ON PS4 (and maybe other gaming consoles?) AS A USB AUDIO DEVICE! Furthermore, my favorite part, they come with a 3.5mm-3.5.mm cable to use as direct line-in audio for those of you that want to hear it through your fancy Quad-HD HiFi DAC device.
Noise-cancellation is pretty darn good, but could use a little improvement. I work in a noisy office and when I put these on High ANC I can barely hear the loud chatter and clicking of keyboards & mice. However, I think the Active Noise Cancellation is still not up-to-par to completely cancel-out the decibels of walking down a busy city sidewalk.
Lastly, but equally important to the rest of why this got a 4-star review, the BUILD QUALITY IS A HUGE IMPROVEMENT FROM PREVIOUS GENERATIONS. The leather material on the ear cups is soft, comfortable, and doesn't press against the top of my jaw line like the P9 headphones. The leather ear cups are removable and replaceable if they wear-out or get damaged. The PX7s are durable, made with brushed carbon fiber (same material that you'll see on Ferrari or Lambourghini cars in some cases). Despite their weight/mass, they feel lighter than they are, which gives a boost to their comfortability rating.

Reviewed in Mexico on February 9, 2022
I can't talk about longevity but I am a bit of an audiophile and have other B&W products and they have served me very well over the years. Headphones give you a completely different perspective and often the over ear variety don't afford you the range that these do. The clarity is excellent. The static over BT at times is present but the slightest input clears it.
The noise cancelling is also brilliant. Effective and easily switched on an off (further adjustment via the app).
The ear pads are soft, secure and not too hot. It's hard to fault these things!
Charges in no time.
I am slightly concerned they plastics will scratch but intend on being careful with them so don't expect this too much beyond normal wear and tear.
