Everything you want from a flagship pair of wireless headphones, the Px8 delivers. With soft Nappa leather on the headband, earcups and earpads, elegant black or tan finishes and that beautiful cast-aluminium arm structure, there are very few premium headphones at this price that look and feel so luxurious.

You're not just paying for looks, though. The Px8 offer 30 hours of battery life from a single charge, while noise cancelling is strong at this price, working to block out all of the intrusions and distractions you would normally experience on a long commute or stroll in the street. If you want tethered listening, the Px8 come with a USB-C to USB-C cable, as well as a USB-C to 3.5mm option, while a competent B&W app looks after your streaming services, noise-cancelling modes, general settings and more.

All of this leads us to how the Px8 sound and, considering their pedigree, you won't be surprised to hear just how positive our assessment is. They are even clearer and more precise than the laser-like accuracy of the Apple AirPods Max, treating us to, as we said in our review, "a level of clarity and insight here that we haven’t heard bettered at this level". Add to this a propulsive sense of rhythmic drive, boundless energy and impressive agility, and you've got a pair of headphones that earn their five-star credentials with ease.

Given we rated these headphones five stars at their full asking price of £599, the fact they can now be yours for £423 is great news – don't sleep on this fantastic offer.
