Best All-Rounder (Bowers and Wilkins PX)
Bluetooth: yes
Wireless: yes
Battery life: 20 hoursThe PX has that rare quality in high-end speakers - it’s smart, and it’s tailored to your liking. Bowers & Wilkins introduced sensors which adapt to the way you listen, pause your audio when you put them down, and resume when you’re ready.The adaptive noise cancelation holds up during even the loudest flights, and a strong bass gives your sound a clarity that is hard to find. A dedicated PX app even allows you to completely control almost everything about your experience, and you’ll find a strangely personal connection to this set. Combine this with a generous battery life and you’ve got one of the best high-end headphones around.
