Bowers & Wilkins - Pi6 - In-Ear Noise-Cancelling True Wireless Earbuds

Pi6: Elevating Performance to New Heights No Stock till Nov 2024

Enhanced Audio Experience The Pi6 earbuds have undergone significant improvements, now matching the performance level of the previous Pi7 S2. With the addition of AptX Adaptive wireless performance, Pi6 now supports 24-bit / 96kHz high-resolution audio, offering a superior listening experience. The 12mm bio-cellulose drive unit, an upgrade from the previous 9.2mm, is crafted with the same material approach found in the Px7 S2, delivering richer, more detailed sound.

Cutting-Edge Qualcomm Chipset Equipped with the latest Qualcomm chipset, the Pi6 earbuds provide enhanced audio performance with reduced power consumption. This allows for up to 8 hours of playback from the earbuds and an additional 16 hours from the charging case, giving you a total of 24 hours of uninterrupted listening pleasure.

Innovative Mechanical Design Pi6 introduces a completely new mechanical design, developed from extensive research into ear geometry to maximize comfort. The previous designs of Pi5 and Pi7 required users to rotate the earbuds to lock them into place, which could be uncomfortable for some. The new Pi6 design eliminates this issue, ensuring a comfortable fit for a wider range of users. Additionally, the microphones have been repositioned to the acoustic gap around the top edge of the earbud, preventing them from being occluded by the user’s ear.

Improved Antenna System The Pi6 features a redesigned antenna system that significantly improves range and reliability, even in congested RF environments. By removing the NFMI technology used in previous models, which provided a high-resolution connection but lacked reliability, the Pi6 offers a more consistent and dependable user experience.

Upgraded Wear Sensors Pi6 now includes upgraded IR wear sensors for more reliable detection, replacing the less consistent capacitive sensors used in earlier models. This new system ensures consistent behavior across a broader range of users. The wear sensors can be easily enabled or disabled via the Bowers & Wilkins Music App, allowing for personalized control.

New Capacitive Touch Button The capacitive touch button on the Pi6 has been improved with a water rejection system, offering more reliable performance in cold or wet conditions. This upgrade ensures a seamless and responsive user experience, even in challenging environments.

Benchmark Audio Performance The Pi6 boasts completely redesigned drive units, increasing in size from 9mm to 12mm. The use of a biocellulose diaphragm, similar to that found in the Px7 S2e, ensures high-quality sound reproduction across all frequencies. With support for aptX Adaptive at 24-bit/96kHz, Pi6 delivers crystal-clear audio that meets the demands of audiophiles.

Advanced ANC and Natural Transparency Mode Pi6 features the latest Qualcomm Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) technology, minimizing impact on audio performance while blocking out unwanted noise. The transparency mode has been refined to provide a natural listening experience, allowing users to remain aware of their surroundings without compromising on sound quality.

Next-Level Usability Adopting the latest Bluetooth 5.4 specification, Pi6 allows for seamless multipoint connection to two devices. Pairing the earbuds is simple, with tap-and-hold functionality or via the Music App. The charging case has been upgraded to a slimmer, more ergonomic form, providing a premium feel in addition to its practical benefits.

Compatibility and Customization Pi6 is compatible with Made For iPhone (MFi) and Google Fast Pair (GFPS), with GFPS rolling out shortly after launch. Users can customize their listening experience with EQ adjustments for Bass and Treble available in the Music App. The packaging has also been enhanced to be more premium, with embossed artwork, easier opening, and fully recyclable materials.

Durability and Splash Protection The Pi6 earbuds are IP54 rated, offering splash protection against sweat and light rain, making them perfect for both everyday use and more active pursuits.
