Review: Exceptional Audiophile Quality Headphones with Limited Faults - I've been looking for a pair of headphones that do it all for me, that I can buy for a decent price and keep for years to come not needing to swap out to anything else, and these definitely seem the one. B&W have always been sensational when it comes to sound quality, having utilised their speakers in the past, but when it comes to music I enjoy headphones, and although wired will always be superior sound quality, there really isn't much in it when it comes to Bluetooth Vs Wired in these headphones. Sound quality these are exceptional - perfect bass, sensational treble and mid-tones, highs are also not too overwhelming as well. Bluetooth is easy to connect as well with their app, with a built in EQ (which I did utilise) - I found they were fractionally too quiet for me, although tuning the EQ on the app made it perfect, and due to the in-built amp in the headphones, the EQ increase didn't result in any loss of quality, but it would have been nice to be slightly louder out of box. Comfort wise, they are so comfortable - feel so light on the head that you forget they are on, although one slight issue is they are a bit slidy on the head - so jogging with them on is pretty much out of the question on the tightest section. But I didn't buy these for exercise - they are great out and about on a gentle walk or at the shops, and great indoors of course. These headphones do have the option to be utilised wired as well so you can retain that extra margin of quality, and comes with both charging cable and aux (although only USB-C from the headphones themselves). Battery life is incredible - I actually fell asleep with them on and 8 hours later was surprised to be on 45% (started on 67%). Another small downside are the headphone's buttons - honestly they are awful - so small and I can never find them easily (doesn't really matter though as I just use my phone controls, or my PC) but it can be frustrating if you're often utilising the buttons. Honestly cannot really fault these headphones apart from the minor things mentioned - these are the best all-round headphones I've ever used. Superior sound quality with the ease of wireless with minimal loss of quality. Perfect price for the years you'll get out of them - make the jump, it'll save you money in the long run instead of buying cheaper headphones that will break easier in a year.
Review: Well made, with a balanced and enjoyable sound - They are nicely made and feel solid. Out of the box they sound very good, balanced but perhaps with a bias towards bass. I'm happy with the sound but there is a 5 band equaliser in the app if you need it. I find the sound more enjoyable than the Sony WH-1000XM4 and 5 both of which I've owned. I enjoy the PX7 more than my pair of open backed wired headphones driven by a good quality DAC/amp. The exception being the soundstage which isn't as wide but instruments are still well separated within the soundstage. The noise cancelling is effective and better than my Earfun Wave Pro. The Wave Pro worked very well on a plane so I'd expect the PX7 s3 to work at least as well. The ambient mode worked nicely when I did some spoken French lessons - Duolingo was able to recognise the words I spoke with no problem. They are a snug fit over my ears but they might be a bit too snug for some. I've been able to connect via Bluetooth to an iPad, an Android phone and an desertcart Fire Cube. I've connected via the included USB type C cable to both iPad and an Android phone. On the iPad the PX7 sounded better connected via cable, but on the Android device there was little difference. So far the app has worked fine with no glitches. Overall, I like the PX7 S3 a lot. There are places where I wouldn't feel safe wearing expensive kit like the PX7 S3, but for those places my Earfun Wave Pros will fill in nicely.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A big step up
*by H***E on 4 June 2025*

Let me be totally blunt. These PX7 s3's are a big step up from the PX7 2e's. And they made me wish I hadn't purchased the 2e's. Here's my opinion on the S3's.... 1. As usual, the build quality is exceptional. They're lighter than the 2e's. And better designed for the head. The clamping force is firmer without being uncomfortable. 2. Noise cancelling is not as important in my world. There has to be some outside noise leakage to let me hear things I may want to hear?. The NC works to a point. And it's good enough for me. 3. Battery life is what I expected. Up to 30 hours with NC on is good. I know there are h/phones with longer battery life out there. But how many of you wear your h/phones for the whole of the batteries charge cycle?. I know I don't. So it's a moot point really. The 30 hours are long enough. 4. Sound quality. I'm not a big fan of "graphic EQ's". I find that I constantly fiddle with them to improve sound without the need to. These S3's have a 5 band EQ. But I don't use it. The S3's have a "True Sound" facility in the app. And its very good indeed. The balance of sound is pretty much what I strive for when I'm messing around with said EQ. There is plenty of bass e.g. But it doesn't overpower the mids or highs. And once the "run in" period is reached. The S3's will have a balanced sound. P.s, the volume of these S3's is loud. At 50% they may cause hearing issues?. I'm using my pair at 35% volume, and thats more than enough. 5. The price of these are at a higher end than most other h/phones. But when compared to B&O's e.g. They are reasonable. Apparently the PX8 S2 is to be released later this year. And with Spatial Audio. But also later this year (via an update) the PX7 S3's will be Spatial compatible too. The PX8's are supposed to be B&W's flagship model. But they would have REALLY special to match these S3's. I do highly recommend buying these. Especially when the updates appear later this year.
