    I am not what I'd consider an audiophile... but I do care quite a bit about what I consider "sound quality". most of what i listen to are MQ files downloaded on deezer (fiio m11plus) or the entire collection of nin live audio files (also on the same device). i switch around headphones, preferring over-ear for the best quality and comfort, but the bluetooth earbuds for convenience and forced isolation when out in public.i love these headphones. i had the previous iteration... and they rocked. but they wouldn't connect with my dap unless i used the adaptor cable (annoying) and, besides, they went through the washing machine.these sound great, fit well (i usually can;t even wear earbuds - the "best" earbuds, the sony-you knows?. so uncomfortable... same with the apple ones)... hell, they are downright comfortable, maybe even a little more so than their predecessors. they are beautifully made, have that nice expensive feel.As previously stated, i'm not an expert, so the following reviews are more or less based on my personal preferences (loud "music" that sounds like noise to philistines, rock, classical, old school hip hop, really old country, and a few real oddball items)... Mostly stuff that, well, all of it requires completely different "flavors" of headphone tonality: the P2 does a truly excellent job at a lot of what i ;iisten to (lucky for me it does best with the EDM/industrial/rock/OSHH; my faves), a completely passable job on almost everything else, and a somewhat mediocre job on stuff like classical, mostly because this is a bass-heavy, ckear and piercing highs, occasionally buried mids AND suffers from an inability to get loud enough, expecially wrt certain frequencies. The quality of your audio device makes a real difference. These sound buttery and smooth with my fiio, but even when i FINALLY got them to bind with my astell&kerns (2) they sounded kind of weak, to tell the truth. Buuuuuut everything else, pretty much, sounded great with these suckers, including my phonea (samsung z fold 2 and 12 pro iphone).i'd say go for 'em.

    First off, I extensively compared these to the PI7 and did not notice much if any difference. Decided to go with the PI5 due to price. Also, the PI5 had less connectivity issues than the PI7 which I returned due to constantly dropping the BT signal.

    The headphones sound pretty great, no major complaints there.

    The case lid is a bit of a challenge in that it snaps shut all the time while I'm using it. No big deal but annoying. I wish it had a detent to keep it open.

    The connectivity is only okay. If the B&W app is running while I listen to another music service they cut out a lot. This is accompanied by nasty crinkling sounds of static. If the B&W app is not running I don't have this issue.

    The app is basically useless. I use it to check the battery life. Beyond that it has no useful functionality.

    Battery life is mediocre. Yesterday I was working all day with the headphones in at modest volume. The charge lasted about 4 hours before the headphones died. They were fully 100% charged at the onset.

    Noise cancellation is okay, not great.

    I was excited to finally own B&W product. Unfortunately they did not live up to normal use expectations.

    These are the best earbuds I have ever owned. Better then the Galaxy Buds, Beats, Air pods, etc. This generation goes off of marketing hype thinking that when they buy these popular brands that they are buying the best but it's far from the truth. This is a great brand with an excellent reputation for sound quality and these are no exception. 10/10 for build quality, features and most importantly...Sound Quality!!!!

    Fit

    I have to begin with the fit because it’s what I consider to be the worst thing about these earphones. The earphones are large and have small stubby ear tips. The tip sizes are very different in size to each other that the sizes look more like extra small, small and X-Large. The earphones are also meant to be twisted on to push against the part of the ear called antitragus, which gets fatigued very easily.

    Replacing the ear tips definitely improves comfort but you are super limited in choices because different tips won’t let the earphones fit in the case. You would have to find tips with the exact same length so they can fit in the case.

    ANC

    ANC is about average with these earphones, while on they mostly block low frequencies. Anything mid frequency and above is still totally audible. Pass trough is a way more impressive function, the sound amplified in that function comes in very clean and natural.

    Design

    The design is very minimalist but it’s clean, the case looks and feels nice and the earphones also look and feel of high quality. The back parts of the earphones are touch controls and are very responsive to touch. The earphones also have a proximity sensor which pauses music when you take one off, I disabled it because I’m constantly fiddling with them because of the bad fit.

    App

    The app doesn’t seem very useful compared to other companion apps I’ve tried, it doesn’t have much in it. The one disappointing thing about the app is that I could not find an EQ in it, the product page mentions it but there isn’t one. There are special modes for several Hifi music streaming services such as tidal but i currently don’t have tidal to see what they do.

    Sound

    If you happen to get a good comfortable fit then the sound is definitely good for wireless earbuds. The highs are non fatiguing/polite but sparkly and clean. The mids are clean and natural. The bass is clean and tight but I do feel that it’s a bit too boosted which is why it’s disappointing that the app doesn’t have an EQ. The tuning overall would be bassy neutral but very clean. Soundstage is narrow but imaging is good.

    Overall these are very good sounding wireless buds IF… they fit you well. I wasn’t expecting such good sound from these because I’m a fan of chifi so I’ve herd plenty of very good iems. These are described as having dual drivers and dual DAC per ear which would explain the clean sound. I still prefer using a wired set with my Qudelix for better sound.

    I went with b&w because of the name,,, big mistake had pi5 s2 2wks… nothing but head ache.. they have a habit of dropping in&out, and sometimes when connecting only the right side works than i have to reconnect…they are comfortable,however the battery life is shockingly weak,if they were £50 than what i paid than i would put up with the issues only because the other features fine…returning for samsung buds at 1/2 the price

    Ithere impressive and the sound quality is awesome but I only bought them on sale and I wouldn't of purchased them full price and the charging case is small which is handy but it not as robust as I would expect for the price and is no thrills and plane grey plastic . The quality of the buds is nice but they are not especially loud but the quality of the sound makes up 4 lack of volume.

    I bought these because I never had a good experience with BT headphones. Every pair I've ever had has either had constant connection issues, or sound like garbage. So I figured maybe I just hadn't spent enough money to get a pair that didn't have issues. I was very wrong. These headphones sound like bass boosted garbage. The mids are so scooped that you almost can't hear any vocals, and the highs aren't much better. I tried changing the eq settings but it made them sound even worse. The noise cancellation didn't work I never could tell which mode was which and whether or not it was on. The auto pause and auto play feature was so bugged out that the headphones were unusable until I turned the feature off.

    I am a bit a of Sennheiser fan boy, in fact the only decent pair of bt headphones I own are Sennheiser, but they are so uncomfortable I never use them. So when I bought these I was trying to see what other brands have to offer, since most brands that are at the same or a higher price point than Sennheiser tend to have good products since they are competing against Sennheiser. This brand is not one of those brands, I will be returning these and buying a pair of Sennheisers instead.

    TL;DR: These suck, don't work and sound terrible buy something else. I would give 0 stars if Amazon would let me
