The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 and PI5 were developed by the team behind the 800 series Diamond loudspeakers. According to the brand, the new in-ears must therefore distinguish themselves by a daring design, smart technology and the best sound experience. For example, you can set them both with the Bowers & Wilkins app, they have a simple user interface and can be linked to Google Assistant or Siri.
PI7 True Wireless headphones
The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 must offer optimal sound quality through a 24-bit audio connection. This should ensure professional studio quality. This model has noise canceling that automatically adapts to the environment. The in-ears are controlled by six microphones, so telephone conversations must be crystal clear.
Unique, however, is the PI7’s smart case. Not only do you use the case to charge the in-ears wirelessly, but you can also use it as a Bluetooth source thanks to the ‘retransmission’ function. You plug this case into a device without bluetooh connectivity, such as an aux speaker or entertainment system in an airplane. The smart case converts it into bluetooth, so you can listen wirelessly.
