Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 In-ear True Wireless earbuds!

[@Dannyb201]

I have the PX8 too and... those Pi8 simply blew them away. They are hands down the best earbuds no contest. Simply crazy for some buds

[@CojRacer]

Can i please know if you listen to your music with an iPhone and Spotify? Thank you.

[@thehawkstv]

Those OnePlus Buds 3 Pro are good too. My Buds 3 Pro will finally deliver next week.

[@hermanlopez2945]

Thank you so much for your input on these.

[@Fredo.heavyy]

Low key, best buds of 2024

[@ajharris1984]

Sennheiser momentum 4 wit sound personalization sound crazy

[@Fredo.heavyy]

@@ajharris1984 yea the Momentum 4 have good sound signature and the recent firmware update makes them a serious contender.

[@NxghtK]

Can’t wait for your opinions man.

[@ttube111]

Thanks bozo 😊

[@Amateur2k]

Low key they are great, but low end … well not so much

[@psawjack7629]

PI8s blow away PI7s!

[@RichCow-xe1bz]

The sound of these on lossless codec is phenomenal . They even sound better than airpods pro 2 when used on an iPhone using aac

[@JBentham1523]

Aac is crap compare to tones of ear buds why u using this like its a reference

[@Hijynx87]

@@JBentham1523 Because APP2 sound really good on an iphone. Hard to beat if you want a balanced sound, they aren't the most fun, but they have great tuning and quality drivers.

[@donnagathers6979]

Definitely if you want great sound quality. Great Video

[@12gjazz]

Nice review. I still have inoperable Pi7’s. Broke my heart when they went down. My #1 PRIORITY IS SOUND. I want the Pi8’s like yesterday. Bowers & Wilkins are LEGIT! J, everything that you said I agree 💯%. I had my eyes on the Denon Perl Pro’s but I could not pass the aesthetics. Not for me. But the Pi8’s are CRAZY. I am imagining those 12 mm drivers thumpin’n in my ears. OMG

[@Amateur2k]

@@12gjazz don’t get hyped, Pi8 are not what you may think; but they are clear and crisp

[@JoeGillian0]

I have the Pi7.and i have zéro interest in the Pi8...i actually think the wdenon perl pro look better...

[@12gjazz]

@@Amateur2k, thanks for your insight/ opinion. Appreciate you. I am happy rock’in my Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 4’s which I am extremely happy with. One day, I might try the Pi8’s. I really like the soundstage on the Bowers and Wilkins. I also had the Bang and Olufsen first gen, the sound was excellent but their noise cancellation was mediocre at best. I was looking for something new from them but they went to the stem style of which I am definitely not a fan of. I will looking at their next iteration as well Thanks @Amateur2k

[@12gjazz]

@@JoeGillian0, I hear you. Whatever you decide, I hope you are happy with whatever you decide to do

[@JoeGillian0]

@@12gjazz Hi, thanks :) Likewise, i dont have doubt the Pi8 will sound very good so be happy if yoy go down that route. I already have the Denon Perl Pro for over a year as well as many others... My favorite pair is the Philips Fidelio T2 at the moment I will probably get the next B&O TwS ( not the EX)

[@SymbianBlack]

How’s the fit? Good for workouts?

[@bubbabfp1]

I just upgraded from the Pi7 S2, and they do sound better, my only gripe I have is that they get a lot of interference in crowded areas like a busy gym. I have a ZFold 6. I literally had go into developer mode and switch to codec AAC instead of Qualcomm Aptx Audio to get the min interference. I tested the sound quality between AAC and Aptx and I cant notice a difference in music streaming experience in my QOBUZ app. I don't know if its a Samsung issue or what not but It is not acceptable to get that kind of interference for a pair of $440 true wireless ear buds. I did not have an issue with my Pi7 S2. I mainly use them at the gym for a premium listening experience. I have the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro and I get zero interference, but to say they sound better than the Pi8 is a major understatement. I have a work iPhone I will try them out at the gym to check out the performance.

[@dinmk]

@bubbabfp1 try bose ultra earbuds you'll be blown away got both bose sound alot better. Don't no but it's says mad for iphone they probably sound better on iphone! But on my galaxy fold 6 they sound muffled after you've been listening to bose.

[@bubbabfp1]

@dinmk Honestly I have the Bose quietcomfort, and yes I never had interference with them, but the Pi8 sound superior to any Bose I've used. Just such a bummer that other Bluetooth interference affects the Pi8 so much in crowded areas. Switching to AAC helped a lot, I'm gonna try them for another week. Sad to say I had the same interference experience with the Bang and Olufsen Beoplay EX.

[@smartphoneconversations]

Nah, they are not messing with these. Bowers & Wilkins are on the Marshall level sound quality, Bose can not compete at that level. I have Bose, several. You probably do't have these, so that is why you might be making this blanket statement. Respectfully...

[@dinmk]

@@bubbabfp1 I don't get any interference on my pi8!

Marshalls are not audiophile IMO lol. No one mentions them at can jam or Axpona

How’s the noice canceling on these compet to their AirPods Pro 2 and the Bose qc ultra?

[@Hijynx87]

Bose and app2 are S tier, these would be a B+.

[@MrWarrenJH]

How would these B&W Pi8 compare to the Denon PerL Pro?

[@jamesnickerson5002]

@@MrWarrenJH I have both and love both but these i8 fit better and can use at gym without falling out

[@nikoskomninos7904]

do you feel that you miss the bass from pi7 with pi8?

[@smartphoneconversations]

Nope, these sound much better in my opinion.

[@JoeGillian0]

​@@smartphoneconversationsi think he made a good point or do you think we dont need aptx lossless or aptx adaptive and aac is enough? I dont like the look of those B&W Pi8 anyway so i am not in the market for them anyway

[@Jesusisking620]

The fact the pi5 are 130 right now

[@simmysharma6845]

😊👍🙏

[@costaserena1000]

Hey, tell me what codecs the iPhone supports because these fleas Aptx Adaptive, Lossness, Classic. However, the smartphone you present has only the basic AAC and no other. Make reviews using the flagship model on Android that owns and supports the above codecs will be more reliable. Regards

[@smartphoneconversations]

OR, you could just buy what you want and test for yourself...that would be better. I have nearly EVERY high end phone from Android...sooo, yeah.

I returned the galaxy buds 3 pro cuz they r just not on the level of the sennheisers

[@JoeGillian0]

You mean soundwise?

[@ajharris1984]

@@JoeGillian0 yea feature wise the samsungs have alot but when it comes to sound they r not touching the sennheisers

[@JoeGillian0]

@@ajharris1984 yep a shame i had to return my faulty momentum 3 tws and move to another brand before MTw4 were out.

[@Maximo-p6k]

@ajharris1984 You know you can tweak the sound using the equalizer on the Buds 3 pro

[@epicmike3915]

The buds 3 pro follow the harman curve. If you're not into that well of course the sennheisers sound better to you because of their exaggerated v shape curve. The Sennheiser Wireless options are not audiophile approved. It is all sound preferences at the end of the day. But the average consumer likes that signature, which is why bose, beats, sony, apple all do that rubbish sound signature which I don't prefer lol.
