Bang & Olufsen are showing off their new bluetooth headphones, the BeoPlay H8

Wired headphones are still going to offer the best possible audio experience, but as people become more and more mobile, the case for a decent pair of wireless headphones becomes increasingly apparent. This year at CES the folks from Bang & Olufsen are showing off their new line of wireless over the ear headphones, which have been dubbed BeoPlay H8.

Aside from the classic design and high-end build materials, which let's be honest is expected from Bang & Olufsen, the headphones are entirely touch-responsive. The volume controls and track management happens with swipes and taps, and the battery life on these headphones promise 14-hours of high-quality playback on a single charge.

As Bluetooth headphones go the BeoPlay H8 certainly gets points for being pretty and functional, but whether or not you are willing to part with $500 is an entirely separate matter.
