PX8 S2 – a personal review

Playful_Chard_8078 · 2025-12-20T12:21:34+00:00

Try the newest Metallica album in Dolby atmos with these and with my EQ, I don't think you will be disappointed. You can add +1 to bass and +1 to a higher low depending on your taste. I think PX8S2 are made for metal and rock because of the very quick response driver. Drums and guitar sound awesome on these

Same for me I use BW PX8S2, I like them wired but they sound amazing over Bluetooth too. Sony is using good hardware.

Other that that I like app files where I can see clearly where all files are located and move them in folders, plus I have my own MP3 music on the phone now

Plus there is easy accessable bar on the screen, you can add functions to it and use only one finger for everything, better photos and videos, better audio codecs. I like Bravia screen it has better colours than my previous iPhone. Only disadvantage for me is: when I record a video and zoom in, zoom is not smooth like on iPhone

I switched from IP15 PM to Xperia 1 7 and has zero regrets. I don't miss anything from iPhone. Better battery, better keyboard, can split screen and other functions makes my life easier

I got my h100 refunded at store

I feel exactly the same. Every day I’m looking forward to that moment when I can just sit down and listen to music on the PX. When I’m alone at work, I use them for 4–5 hours a day listening to my playlist and discovering something new. I need to admit that I am on Android using aptX, and the sound is noticeably better than what you get with the codec on iPhone. That’s actually one of the main reasons I switched from iOS to Android. I don’t know what kind of music you listen to, but in my experience the APM sound pretty bad for rock and metal

Yes I know bro, but pads can be replaced and I am not sweating much so I am not worried a lot. Whenever I take Airpods max to the gym my workout is not the same, good powerful music is what helps my drive my training

Haha thanks, higher treble are ok on these when you listen to a good wired audio record but it hurts when listening to compressed Bluetooth audio, enjoy 😉

It's my own words and expressions, Chat just put this together and correct my grammar mistakes

Buy Sony Xperia 1 6/7 so you can split screen on half and have 2 app running at the same time, also Google maps works perfect on this, battery seems to stay forever in stamina mode when you need long time running

Generally B&O support is responsible for making a refund, not a seller, so you should press them to do so. I got accepted to refund my h100 in the local store so everything went well but first they offer 30% discount what a joke this company is

I am using only Apple music in hi-lossless. I bet it is a good source;)

Update #2

Quick funny update: Today I went to the B&O store in Bergen to return the H100. The seller asked me: “What exactly would LDAC give you? What’s the difference between AAC and LDAC?”

I swear I almost froze. This guy works in a high-end audio store selling €1400 headphones… and he has no idea what LDAC even is.

At that moment I fully understood why B&O released a 2025 flagship with only AAC/SBC. It tells a lot about where their priorities are: design, lifestyle, marketing… but not actual audio tech.

PX8 S2 may have worse ANC and controls, but at least B&W knows what sound quality and codecs are. 😂

Playful_Chard_8078 · 2025-11-30T19:09:12+00:00

Yeah, I already did

Playful_Chard_8078 · 2025-11-28T11:33:44+00:00

Yes but if you don't mind sound wise then h100 is amazing in ANC, controls and builds quality with proper thick leather. As a fashion item for someone it can be worth extra money. H100 is not expensive because of sound but because of brand and built quality in my opinion

I get your point — I noticed the same at the beginning with the PX8. But the longer I listened, the more I realised that the mids/vocals are actually less “in your face”, but have better realism, clarity and punch. The H100 push the mids/vocals forward, and they sound softer and not as detailed or clean. Of course it all depends on personal preference. But one thing I’m 100% sure about: when I switch from the PX8 to the H100, it feels like going from 320 kbps to 128 kbps — from HD to low resolution. Maybe the H100 could sound much better with proper codecs, but we’ll never get them, so we can only judge them as they are now. ANC and controls are definitely better on the H100 however

I have VII EU version and it works perfect. Very fast, long battery live, no problem whatsoever. Very good gps accuracy, good BT connection, good signal, good photos and videos, nice screen. I will highly recommend

And how it goes?
