They did upgrade bluetooth a bit to 4.1 from the 'older' 4.0. Internally it is different. 

I also noticed the Bluetooth update. The H8 page still says bluetooth 4.0. I think Bluetooth 4.0 chips can be upgraded to 4.1 without any hardware changes. H8 seriously need better radio communication so if it can be updated by software then this would be very good (if it even helps). Some people have problems with them, some doesn't. I've noticed that my H8 has been working quite good for a while but in colder weather they seem to work less satisfactory. Perhaps I have more clothes or there is something with the air or humidity. I have no idea. It just is not very stable. 

I hope H7 is better, and that H8 will get stable. By the way, H7 does not have noice cancellation so the hardware might be much simpler. A bit confusing that it does not have it since the new H3 does. Well.  

I'm still hoping for an on-ear (H5) without wireless.

I am really bummed about the H7 not having noise cancelling.

I was going to buy them also due to the bigger earpads. You dont happen to know about any upgrades to the H8. I like them the most as they have a nice color option and are also packed with all the goodies

I have the H6 and they are pretty good at removing noise just by being over-ear and "passive"

I don't like the buggy bluetooth part - so i rather see one without. Could shave something of the price aswel.
