Bowers & Wilkins PI8 True Wireless In-Ear Headphones: Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation with transparency mode
For the commuter who wants to transform their daily train ride into a personal concert hall, these true wireless earbuds deliver studio-quality sound in a compact package. While many focus on noise cancellation, we emphasize how the adaptive ANC with transparency mode lets you stay aware of announcements without sacrificing immersion—the carbon cone drivers reproduce bass lines so clearly, you'll feel the rhythm in your bones.
The aptX Adaptive codec ensures your music streams without lag, even in crowded areas. With 6.5 hours of battery life per charge and a case that adds 20 hours total, they last through a full workweek of commutes. The Bowers & Wilkins Music app lets you customize the EQ to match your favorite genre, making every listen uniquely yours.
