Bowers & Wilkins Launches Px7 S3 Headphones Amid Tariff Concerns

Bowers & Wilkins has launched the Px7 S3, an upgraded set of wireless noise-cancelling headphones that build on the strengths of the previous Px7 S2e with a slimmer design, improved comfort, and enhanced ANC performance. The Px7 S3 features new 40mm biocellulose drivers, an eight-microphone array for adaptive noise cancelling, and support for high-resolution audio via aptX Adaptive and aptX Lossless codecs. While the ANC still falls just short of leading Sony and Bose models, the Px7 S3 is widely praised for its exceptional sound quality and comfort, positioning it as a strong contender in the premium headphone market. Additional features include up to 30 hours of battery life, fast charging, physical controls, and upcoming spatial audio via a future update. The headphones are available in three colors and introduce Auracast audio sharing for the first time in the brand. However, U.S. buyers may face higher prices due to unresolved tariff issues, potentially making them less competitive compared to international markets.
