Bowers & Wilkins PX8 Overview
The flagship Px8 Noise-Canceling Wireless Over-Ear Headphones from Bowers & Wilkins in royal burgundy combines ultra-high-resolution audio with a touch of luxury and modern conveniences. Accurate, nuanced, and true-to-life sound is produced by 40mm custom carbon cone drivers that receive audio via Bluetooth 5.2 using aptX Adaptive. You'll have a better appreciation for your music in public thanks to a 4-microphone active noise cancellation system. In addition to audio fidelity, the physical construction of the Px8 headphones has been upgraded with improved engineering and premium materials, letting you listen all day in quiet comfort.
Premium Design & Comfort
The construction of the Px8 over-ear headphones has been upgraded to provide a single diecast aluminum arm structure, as well as cushioned earcups and headband finished in genuine Nappa leather. The engineering of all components took into account various head shapes, hair styles, and even accommodate for those who wear glasses. The result is a combination of minimal clamping force to promote long, comfortable enjoyment, with a snug seal that optimizes audio quality.
ANC with Transparency
Bowers & Wilkins uses four separate microphones to provide active noise cancellation technology, which takes in and neutralizes distracting ambient noise. If you do need to engage with your environment or chat with others, you can enable transparency mode to let sound back in without having to remove your headphones.
Clear Hands-Free Calling
Dual microphones are used to not only pickup your voice clearly, but also provide suppression for ambient noise and wind. They work in conjunction with noise-canceling technology from Alango to deliver crystal clear hands-free calls.
Wear Detection
A sensor can detect if you're wearing the Px8 wireless headphones or not. If you take them off, your audio playback will automatically pause, and will automatically resume once you put them back on.
Multi-Function Button
A multi-function button on the earcup can be mapped to a host of functions for added convenient. You can have it launch your mobile devices digital assistant, such as Siri, or toggle ANC and transparency modes.
Bowers & Wilkins Music App
Using the Bowers & Wilkins Music app on your mobile device, you can adjust the EQ, transparency mode for ANC, and more.

On a full charge, the Px8 wireless over-ear headphones provides you with up to 30 hours of battery life. If you are low on power and time, you can also utilize the quick charge feature, which gives you up to 7 hours of playback with just 15 minutes of charging.
