Bowers & Wilkins, renowned globally among musicians, producers, and audiophiles, has once again raised the bar by launching its latest premium wireless headphones: the Px7 S3. Building on a heritage of audio excellence that stretches from the acclaimed P5 headphones of 2010 to the award-winning Px7 S2e of 2023, the Px7 S3 is designed to deliver an even more faithful, immersive representation of the artist’s original intent, what Bowers & Wilkins calls True Sound.
The Px7 S3 marks a major evolution in design and engineering. Its silhouette is slimmer and more refined than previous models, offering a sleeker, more premium look without sacrificing durability. The headphones feature a new, reimagined headband and a redesigned arm mechanism that ensures a closer, more stable fit for a wider range of head shapes.
Luxuriously soft memory foam earpads upgraded for better breathability and cushioning fully encapsulate the ears, reducing fatigue for long listening sessions. Even the carry case has been made more compact and travel-friendly, fitting easily into bags without adding bulk.
A Leap Forward in Sound and Noise Cancelling
The Px7 S3 isn’t just about aesthetics, it’s packed with cutting-edge technology under the hood. Building on the Px7 S2e’s strong foundation, the S3 introduces re-engineered 40mm drive units carefully angled inside each earcup for a more natural, focused soundstage.
Connectivity and audio fidelity are further enhanced through Qualcomm’s aptX™ Adaptive 24-bit/96kHz wireless transmission, along with support for aptX™ Lossless for near-CD quality over Bluetooth — a rare find even among flagship models. Dedicated headphone amplifiers ensure rich dynamics, deep bass, and crystalline highs across all genres.
Noise cancellation sees a major boost as well. The Px7 S3 employs a new eight-microphone system: six microphones dedicated to adaptive active noise cancellation and two positioned to optimise call clarity.
This system dynamically adjusts to your surroundings, offering superb noise suppression without compromising the music’s natural sound. Whether you’re on a busy commute or in a noisy café, the Px7 S3 promises a serene listening experience.
Smarter and More Personalizable Than Ever
The updated Bowers & Wilkins Music app offers deeper control over your listening experience.
New features include a fully user-adjustable five-band equaliser, allowing you to tweak your sound signature and save presets for different moods or genres. Firmware updates will also bring future enhancements, including spatial audio support later in 2025, ensuring that the Px7 S3 remains at the cutting edge of headphone technology.
Pricing and Availability
The Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 will retail for $699 and be available in mid-May. It will be available in several elegant colourways that perfectly match its new premium feel.
