The biggest difference is in the long irons. Testers found the ZXi7's long irons launch higher than expected for a players' iron. With the P·7CB, they said the longest irons can be hard to get airborne, and many suggested a combo set with the P770. The two also look different at address. The P·7CB has a thin topline and a clean, classic look, while the ZXi7's topline is square and slightly thick, most noticeably in the long irons.
On specs, the ZXi7 7-iron has 32° of loft and is 37.25 inches long. The P·7CB 7-iron has 33° of loft and is 37.0 inches long. Both are forged players' irons that feel soft and solid from the centre and shape shots easily. Reviews of both are split on forgiveness.

Choose the P·7CB Irons if…
you're a single-figure ball-striker who wants a thin topline and a clean, classic look at address, and you're happy to put P770s in the long-iron slots if you need help with launch.
