Used Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 Anthracite Wireless Noise-Canceling In-Earbuds

The Bowers & Wilkins Pi8 True Wireless Earbuds bring reference-grade audio engineering to an in-ear form factor, built around a 12mm Carbon Cone dynamic driver in each earbud. Designed as the successor to the acclaimed Pi7 S2, the Pi8 pairs high-resolution aptX Lossless streaming with adaptive noise cancellation and a smart charging case that doubles as a wireless transmitter. It's a true wireless earbud built for listeners who treat sound quality as non-negotiable.

Key Features

• 12mm Carbon Cone Driver — A single, purpose-built dynamic driver per earbud reduces distortion and sharpens high-frequency detail, revealing texture in music that smaller or multi-driver setups often smooth over.
• aptX Lossless & 24-bit Audio — Bluetooth 5.4 with aptX Adaptive and aptX Lossless support delivers true 24-bit sound over a wireless connection, so compatible source devices can stream CD-quality audio without cables.
• Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation — ANC automatically adjusts to ambient conditions in real time, cutting background noise during commutes, flights, or busy offices without needing manual mode-switching.
• Six Microphones for Calls — Three microphones per earbud work together to isolate your voice from surrounding noise, keeping calls and video meetings clear even in loud environments.
• 6.5 Hours Earbud Playback + 13.5 Hours from the Case — Combined battery life reaches roughly 20 hours, and 15 minutes on charge restores 2 hours of listening time when you're in a rush.
  
• Wireless Audio Retransmission — The Smartcase can receive analog or digital audio from a source like a laptop or in-flight entertainment system and retransmit it wirelessly to the earbuds in aptX Adaptive at up to 24-bit/96kHz.
  
• Multipoint Connectivity — Stay connected to two devices simultaneously, switching seamlessly between a laptop and phone without repairing.
• 5-Band EQ via B&W Music App — Fine-tune the sound signature with a customizable 5-band equalizer or use TrueSound mode for the brand's reference tuning, all controlled through the Bowers & Wilkins Music app.
