Bowers and Wilkins PX wireless noise-cancelling headphones review

 

An impressive first noise-cancelling effort

Noise-cancellation impresses ; Auto pause-play works well ; USB-C charging

Sound lacks definition ; No classic B&W black leather

Bowers and Wilkins might be a little late to the noise-cancelling game but, in this regard at least, the wait has been worth it. The noise-cancellation certainly impresses, but what's more surprising is that B&W has built in an innovative sensing...

Transparent, detailed sound ; Excellent dynamics ; Impeccable sense of timing ; Clever, intuitive features ; Impressive noise-cancelling ; Good battery life ; Fine build

Nothing significant

The PXs are a fantastic package, boasting excellent sound quality, successful noise-cancelling and a smart design

Bowers & Wilkins PX review: ANC and audiophile talents combine in these knock-out over-ears

 

Bowers & Wilkins first attempt at active noise-cancelling wireless headphones are accomplished and clever, they come with tonnes of tech but it is the

Four levels of active noise-cancellation ; Beautiful design notes ; Super soundstage with control over clarity and bass in equal measure ; Wear sensor that switches them off when not in use

Foldable design could have been adopted ; Pricier than some already direct rivals

The ANC-capable wireless headphones market has grown rapidly in recent times, so it makes great sense for Bowers & Wilkins to enter at this point. It does have some major rivals though, most notably in the recently announced

Bowers & Wilkins PX review

 

High-end audio brand Bowers & Wilkins has made a few different wireless headphones in the past, but the PX is the company's first headphone to feature both Bluetooth and noise canceling. It's actually B&W's first noise-canceling headphone of any kind.

The Bowers & Wilkins PX headphone offers impressive build quality and excellent sound. Wireless operation is nearly flawless, battery life is very good, and a premium carrying case is included. Works well as a headset for making calls.

Competing models from Bose, Sony and Beats are less expensive, more comfortable and offer better noise cancelling. -- and its noise cancelling is quite on par with those same competitors. Battery isn't user replaceable.

Although not quite as strong as some competitors, the Bowers & Wilkins PX still ranks among the top wireless noise-canceling headphones available right now.

Bowers & Wilkins PX review

 

Bowers & Wilkins rarely disappoints when it comes to headphones and it now offers wireless and noise cancelling. Here's our review of the PX headphones.

For its first attempt at noise cancelling headphones Bowers & Wilkins has done an amazing job. By incorporating elements of the outstanding P9 Signature headphones in a compact and portable design, the PX are the best sounding wireless headphones we’ve...

Bowers & Wilkins PX review: A stylish, understated alternative to Bose

 

Beautiful design, effective noise-cancelling, and an understated, relaxed sound – only comfort qualms hold the PX back

Gorgeous looks ; Adjustable noise-cancellation works well ; Balanced, natural sound

Headband is uncomfortable for long periods ; Treble is a tad soft

There is no shortage of great noise-cancelling headphones out there, but B&W has positioned the PX perfectly. There’s plenty of demand for a wireless, noise-cancelling headphone that doesn’t provide hyped-up bass or highs, and which delivers it in a...

Bowers & Wilkins PX review

  (Rating Hidden)

These high-end over-ear headphones from Bowers & Wilkins have three adaptive noise-cancelling settings to cut out background sounds. The PX headphones are clever, too - they will automatically turn on when you put them on, and return to standby mode...

At S$569, the B&W PX is priced competitively. It wins for its style and sound quality, if these are more important to you than noise cancelling performance.

B&W PX headphones will let you enjoy music in total peace

 

Can headphones be wireless, nose-canceling, AND good?

Great sound ; Stellar noise cancellation ; Tons of features

Some dubious design choices ; Some bugs

The B&W PX headphones are pretty great, but the sound, the build and the features all have tiny kinks which may be dealbreakers for some.
