It has the most uncomfortable seats and highest amount of road and wind noise from the side windows - yes, higher than the 911 with the excellent lightweight and noise insulated glass option.
More comfortable and relaxing than the RR? No chance. Sharper and more dynamic to drive? Sure, will agree with that.

That is unfortunate. Something is wrong with your X7 then with wind noise and there was some reports of this on a few newer builds (Gaps with trim around windshield).
My fully optioned 2020 X7 M50i is THE quietest luxury vehicle I have ever owned even with the sunshade open. I am comparing it to (A8,S8 S class, etc..)
At 75mph there is no wind noise and is so isolating the perceived speed is only visual. It’s so quiet it was unsettling the first few times I took it on longer drives. My 911 is quiet for a sports car and feels rock solid tight but not even in the same zip code of isolation of my X7. I do extensive long distance trips and my X7 has been by far the most comfortable and luxurious.
Comparison between the X7M50i and M760i:
“gap in ride quality between these two is nearly nonexistent with their cushy adaptive air suspensions. We’re going to give the smallest of wins to the M760i for being just a hair more isolated and quieter than the X7 M50i, but the difference is hardly noticeable. Both are among the most comfortable-riding vehicles one can buy today.”
