A new year's treat

There were scant few things that surprised me like the PX7 S3 in 2025. They landed on my desk with little fanfare, and then wowed me with some of the best sound around — so much so that they unseated Sony, the wireless headphones kings in my estimation of the best headphones you can buy.

And now they're surprising me in 2026 as well. We're not even a couple of days into the new year, and there's already a massive saving on my favorite headphones of last year. The Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S3 are down to $364 at Amazon, following a hefty $110 discount. That's their lowest price ever!

Note: This deal is only on the black colorway.

They're super comfortable and feel more premium than just about anything that sits around the same price. They sound excellent, as you might imagine, and you can enjoy that sound for a long time thanks to the 30 hours of battery life.

Pulling the Bowers & Wilkins PX7 S3's exemplary protective case out of the box when you get them home does enough to show you why they're our pick of the best headphones. It's a solid and supremely sturdy entry into what (I think at least) is one of the most important parts of the portable wireless headphone experience.

Then you slide them from their molded inserts and slot them onto your head. The smooth armatures adjust easily to accommodate large and small heads alike, and the welcoming padding ensures they're comfortable from day one. That's another box in the checklist ticked off.

The materials feel expensive, too. From their luxurious feeling (and vegan-friendly) faux-leather-covered headband and earcups to the sturdy feeling earcup outer panels and headband, they feel much better put together than any Sony or Bose alternatives.

The controls are physical, bucking the trend toward touch controls in recent years. They're easy to use (if a little small), and they won't let you down if your fingers get wet or if you're wearing thick gloves.

Press the play button, and you're treated to some of the best sound you'll find at this price point. They're warm without being too overly bassy, and feature plenty of detail to get really stuck into your tunes. The ANC is good enough that you'll not want for extra noise blocking, and the 30 hours of battery keep them chugging along for a few days of use.

I use my pair every day for listening to music — I can't imagine you'll be any different if you pick them up at this stellar deal price.
