Product details
The Pi6 is an in-ear headphone that sets a new standard for performance in the True Wireless category. The 24-bit wireless connection with aptX Adaptive support delivers the premium sound you expect from Bowers & Wilkins.

The carefully positioned microphones of the Pi6 provide top-notch noise cancelling and excellent call quality, allowing you to get the most out of your in-ear headphones—whether you're listening to music on your commute or engaged in an important phone call. The Pi6 is designed for modern music lovers. With an improved battery life of up to 8 hours, it offers even longer high-resolution listening enjoyment, and the outstanding sound quality brings you closer to the original recording every step of the way.
