Bowers & Wilkins Pi7 S2 Review: Awesome Sound, Average ANC

Welcome to our review of the Bowers & Wilkins Pi7 S2! We’ve tested them out, and while they sound great, the active noise cancelling isn’t quite up to snuff.

The Good

Let’s start off with what we like:

• Sound Quality: The Pi7 S2s sound really really good. These bad boys hit above their weight class with premium quality audio and maximum enjoyment.
• Comfort: The over-ear design and plush earcups make for a snug (but comfortable!) fit. The pressure is evenly distributed on your head for all-day listening.
• Battery Life: The Pi7 S2 have 30-hour battery life! Enough for a week of full usage and then some.

The Bad

Now, what didn’t we like? Well, the active noise cancelling isn’t particularly great.

• ANC (Active Noise Cancellation): Don’t expect the ANC to be loud enough to shut out the sound of a busy office. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still good, but not great.

Conclusion

At the end of the day, we still really like the Bowers & Wilkins Pi7 S2. The sound quality is beyond reproach and the comfort is top-notch. The only thing that really needs to be improved upon is Active Noise Cancelling. But hey, it’s still better than nothing!

All in all, if you’re looking for headphones with great sound, the Bowers and Wilkins Pi7 S2 are worth a look.
