Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 McLaren Edition design inspired by F1 racing team priced at 27.9 million VND
The special edition of the flagship headphone model Px8 S2 carries McLaren Formula 1 DNA, featuring 40 mm Carbon drivers, ANC active noise cancellation and a bold racing design. PGI has just officially brought Bowers & Wilkins Px8 S2 McLaren Edition to the Vietnamese market with a suggested retail price of 27.9 million VND. This is a special edition developed from the cooperation between British audio brand Bowers & Wilkins and supercar company McLaren Automotive, continuing to expand the product portfolio for customers who love high-end sound, luxurious design and Formula 1 culture.
Unlike simple color changing versions, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition is built on the foundation of the Px8 S2 - the most advanced wireless headphone model currently from Bowers & Wilkins. The product inherits all key audio technology, while adding design details inspired by the McLaren Formula 1 racing team. The most notable highlight of the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition lies in the exclusive 40 mm Carbon driver system. According to Bowers & Wilkins, carbon material helps the speaker membrane achieve high stiffness while still maintaining light weight, thereby improving vibration control and reducing distortion. This is also the technology that the company is positioning as the foundation for a high-end listening experience on top-of-the-line headphone lines.
In addition, the headphones support ANC active noise cancellation technology, high-quality wireless connection via aptX Lossless codec, and the ability to transmit 24-bit high-resolution audio. Battery life reaches a maximum of 30 hours of continuous use and supports 15-minute quick charging for about 7 hours of music playback. In terms of design, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition has an Anthracite Gray color tone combined with Papaya Orange highlights - the color associated with McLaren racing cars on the Formula 1 racetrack. Details such as the Speedmark logo, headband and earcups are all finished in the typical style of the British racing car brand, creating a clear difference compared to the standard version.
According to B&W, the Px8 S2 McLaren Edition is aimed at a group of users pursuing a "performance luxury" lifestyle - where technological performance, premium design and personal touch are placed on equal footing. This is also the headset model used by McLaren drivers such as Oscar Piastri and Lando Norris during periods of rest and entertainment off the track. The appearance of Px8 S2 McLaren Edition continues to complete the genuine Bowers & Wilkins headphone ecosystem in Vietnam, alongside products such as Pi6, Pi8, Pi8 McLaren Edition, Px7 S3 or Px8 S2. 2026 also marks the 60th anniversary of Bowers & Wilkins, an audio brand famous for its "True Sound" philosophy and hi-end products for music lovers around the globe.
