See price on AmazonOverall Score 7.5 Represents average audio ecosystem compatibility score.
Ingress protection ratings is the rating of protection given by a casing, against dust and liquids. In the format of IPXX, 'X' represents a number The first value refers to protection against solids such as dust, while the second refers to protection against liquids (water).
Having a value of IP54, the Bowers & Wilkins PI7's rating for solids indicates that ingress of dust is not totally prevented but dust does not enter in harmful quantities to interfere with the correct operation or impair safety, and the second number of 4 means that they can withstand low pressure spray similar to that of a shower head when tilted at 180° for 10 minutes. The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 have a weight of 50g . We prefer a lower weight best for the reason that lighter devices are easier to transport.
True wireless devices have no cables linking any part of the device together, Bowers & Wilkins PI7 are true wireless for this case since they have no wires. This is a key distinction since wireless earbuds have cables linking the two earbuds together. Bowers & Wilkins PI7 have stereo speakers, devices with stereo speakers deliver sound from separate channels on both left and right sides, creating a richer sound and a better listening experience.
ANC makes use of more advanced kind of tech to reduce ambient sounds. How it works, it studies the sound pattern of incoming noise and after generates a mirror signal to cancel it out. Simply put, it's like taking +1 (sound from your surrounding) then adding -1 (counter sound by the device) to make 0 which results in a reduced level of noise.
The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 have ANC enabling you to listen at lower volume levels, causing less ear fatigue since you don't have to crank up the earbuds volume to overcome background noise. The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 sit well in place, creating a sound covering that tones down your environment sounds well as preventing the device music from leaking out .
The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 have a unit size of 9.2mm in diameter, bigger drivers are more powerful, therefor producing better bass. A driver unit is the component that makes sound in the earbuds, its size corellates with the sound produced by the device.
Bowers & Wilkins PI7's lowest frequency is at 10Hz, low-frequency response measures if and how well an audio device generates low audible frequencies and if it makes any changes to the signal on its way through. The Bowers & Wilkins PI7's highest frequency is at 20,000Hz, high-frequency response shows how well an audio device produces high audible frequencies and if it changes to the signal on its way through. Bowers & Wilkins PI7's battery life is 4.5 hours, these last less than 5 hours of listening which is considered average before recharge.
A device's battery life is commonly given by the manufacturer, and with more battery hours, you get to use it for longer and have to charge the device less often. This is given by the vendor, and the Bowers & Wilkins PI7's case has a charge of 18 hours. A charging case with more battery hours enables you to recharge your earbuds on the go multiple times before recharging the case itself.

The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 have a 10meters distance connecting via Bluetooth.
Bowers & Wilkins PI7 support AAC, a codec that is used for Bluetooth audio. It supports 24-bit audio at 250kbps. Because it uses psychoacoustic modeling, it provides better results than other codecs at the same bit rate.
Being the highest quality codec that any Bluetooth-supporting Apple product supports, the Bowers & Wilkins PI7 will work fine with your iPhone. If you are planning on using these with Android you need to pay even closer attention to codec support for if they only have AAC they won't provide the best audio quality possible, ensure that they also support aptX HD, LDAC, or LHDC as well. Bowers & Wilkins PI7 support APTX Adaptive, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm.
It has a variable bit rate (between 279kbps and 420kbps). The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 support APTX HD, an audio codec for Bluetooth devices that are developed by Qualcomm. It supports high-quality 24-bit audio (at a bit rate of 576kbps). Bowers & Wilkins PI7 have 6 microphones. Bowers & Wilkins PI7 use a noise-canceling microphone, these microphones are intended to filter out noise from the earbuds' sound.
Bowers & Wilkins PI7 support ambient sound mode, which uses microphones to pass through ambient sound to still be heard even when wearing them The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 support in/on-ear detection, the sensors in the earbuds can detect when removed from your ears . If misplaced in a room, or can't easily find them in your bag, Bowers & Wilkins PI7 support the find earbuds feature. The Bowers & Wilkins PI7 support fast charging.
