Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 Review – The Art of Wireless Perfection

Introduction

The Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S3 takes everything the brand has learned from decades of acoustic excellence and refines it into a wireless headphone that blends power, comfort, and precision. Building on the strong foundation of the Px7 S2, the S3 arrives with improved sound tuning, enhanced ANC performance, and a more refined design that feels distinctly B&W — timeless, elegant, and sonically pure.

Design & Comfort

Bowers & Wilkins products have always embodied understated luxury, and the Px7 S3 continues that legacy beautifully. The new design feels lighter and more sculpted, with clean contours and subtle accents that elevate its aesthetic appeal. Available in finishes like Anthracite Black and Ocean Blue, the Px7 S3 is as much a statement piece as it is a serious audio tool.

The build quality is outstanding — with premium materials throughout, from the soft-touch headband to the plush memory-foam ear cushions. The slimmer frame provides a more natural fit than its predecessor, while the earcups swivel smoothly to adapt to the shape of your head. It feels comfortable during long listening sessions, offering a secure fit without unnecessary pressure.

Px7 S3 USP 3

Sound Quality

Px7 S3 USP 1

Sound has always been at the heart of Bowers & Wilkins’ identity, and the Px7 S3 delivers on that promise spectacularly. Equipped with custom-engineered 40 mm drivers angled inside each earcup for optimal acoustic performance, the S3 offers a soundstage that is wide, dynamic, and full of life.

The bass is powerful but never overwhelming — tight, punchy, and well-controlled. It adds warmth and depth without muddying the midrange. Vocals and instruments in the mids are clear and natural, maintaining that signature B&W neutrality with a touch of musical sweetness. The treble is crisp and refined, providing sparkle and air without fatigue, even after hours of playback.

With support for aptX Adaptive, aptX HD, and AAC, along with a capable internal DAC and amplifier, the PX7 S3 ensures high-resolution playback whether you’re using Bluetooth or USB-C wired mode. The result is a headphone that sounds as good in the studio as it does on the move — detailed, balanced, and effortlessly engaging.

Active Noise Cancellation

Noise cancellation is one of the biggest improvements in the Px7 S3. Using an upgraded eight-microphone system and enhanced DSP processing, Bowers & Wilkins has achieved impressive results. The S3 intelligently adapts to different environments, reducing low-frequency rumbles on flights and dampening chatter in busy spaces — all while keeping the music open and natural.

Transparency mode feels authentic too, allowing outside sounds in without excessive coloration or harshness. It’s not quite at the level of Sony’s WH-1000XM5 in raw isolation, but the Px7 S3 wins in tonal balance and sound fidelity with ANC on.

Battery Life & Connectivity

Px7 S3 USP 2

With up to 30 hours of playback, the Px7 S3 easily lasts through long commutes, workdays, and flights. A 15-minute quick charge provides up to 7 hours of listening, ensuring you’re never left without your music for long.

Bluetooth 5.3 connectivity guarantees stable pairing and supports multipoint — allowing you to stay connected to two devices at once. The Bowers & Wilkins Music App now includes a 5-band EQ, letting you fine-tune the sound to your preferences. While the app isn’t as feature-rich as some competitors, it’s clean, intuitive, and reliable.

Verdict – Are They Worth It?

With the Px7 S3, Bowers & Wilkins has crafted a headphone that perfectly balances luxury, technology, and performance. Its design exudes sophistication, its sound is breathtakingly refined, and its functionality meets the needs of modern listeners. While other brands may focus on pure ANC strength or smart features, B&W focuses on what matters most — sound quality and craftsmanship.

For anyone seeking a premium over-ear headphone that looks as good as it sounds, the Px7 S3 is an easy recommendation. It’s a masterclass in wireless audio done right — immersive, musical, and deeply satisfying.
