Comparison to other popular wireless headphones
I own a lot of headphones (XM4, XM6, QC Ultra, PX7 S2, and more), and the PX8 is easily my favorite for sound quality. I thought I'd hit a ceiling on the micro-details I could hear in recordings... then the PX8 took my listening to yet another level.
Sony XM6 / Bose QC Ultra: noticeably better noise cancellation and a more "fun" tuning.
PX8: more detailed and cleaner sound thanks to its carbon-cone drivers, with a tuning that's closer to reference.
Build quality is also a standout. The PX8 feels luxurious with a metal and leather body as opposed to the usual plasticy feel.
Honestly, all of headphones I compared are solid products I could recommend, but for audiophiles the PX8 is a large step above the rest. Especially at this price.
That said, I don't use my PX8 as a daily driver, so I can't comment on first hand experience. Mine have held up fine, but I also baby them a bit compared to my other nice headphones.
But the PX7 S2 being $99 is very hard to pass up if you want to stay more budget-friendly. The S2 is still a great set, even though noise cancellation isn't on par with Sony XM5/Bose QuietComfort Ultra gen1/Sonos Ace; it still blocks out a good deal, and once music is playing, everything else is drowned out. I'm not sure about the Gen 2 Ultras or XM6 Sonys, but at $99, I don't think that would be a fair comparison. Sound quality beats all of them for me, build quality is better than all (though maybe tied with Sonos Ace), and comfort is close to Bose QuietComfort Ultras (better than the standard 2023 QuietComforts for me) and Sonos Ace.
I own those, the updated PX7 S2e, and Sony 1000XM4s.
The B&Ws are superior to the Sonys in every aspect except for noise cancelling, but noise cancelling just isn't that important to me. They're massively better build quality though - night and day difference from the all plastic Sonys. Even the cheapest B&Ws feel like $300+ headphones.

BTW the audio quality was actually very good. They were my favorite pair of headphones, that's why im disappointed. There is no reason not to stitch the headband together for a product this $.

PX8 is more of a splurge for an audiophile, but the PX7 S2 for $100 is basically pulling a robbery for the average listener who just wants a nice pair of phones.
, but over different generations and versions there have been complaints of various ungluings and apparent subpar quality control for headphones for their fairly high price points.
And while the relatively plastic-ier Sony headphones, like the xM4s referenced, have had some complaints, they have held up over time despite being purchased by customers probably less likely to be careful than an average B&W owner.
I find many B&W a bit too warm and veiled as a default tuning. People talk about clarity, but often the tuning has underemphasized treble region and boosted bass frequencies.
