Bang & Olufsen Beosound A1 (3rd gen) – Portable Compact Wireless Bluetooth Speaker, Waterproof (IP67), C2C certified, up to 24 hours of playtime and 3 Microphones for clear voice calls - Honey Tone

My first experience of this brand, my son has one and suggested I buy this one. After seeing the price I nearly didn’t bother, but after deliberating the pros and cons I went for it in Red. Very pleased! Very easy to operate and the sound quality is worth the money. It’s solid in weight too. I would recommend

Incredible!

Very impressed with the sound this little unitanages to produce! It has a very well balanced sound stage. Clear and bright high and mid range, the low end for the size of the unit is very impressive! Precise and clear speaker with a high quality clean and clear soundstage. Exactly what I was looking for

Just fantastic. Superb build quality, robust, class leading sound, quick pairing to phone.

Very good quality. This is my second speaker of this company. Good service

First and foremost the sound is wonderful. Instruments are reproduced with clarity and the whole soundstage feels rich and complete. However the ergonomics of this speaker have left me wondering what the designers were thinking of. There is white light at the top front which confirms that the unit has connected and another multi-coloured light at the USB C charging port at the lower rear that alerts you when the battery charge falls below 40%. There is nothing to indicate that the charge level is anywhere above 40%, you need to check the Bluetooth information on your phone/device. OK, B&O love minimalism. So why 2 lights when one multi coloured light would suffice? Then there are the six control buttons for power, volume, pairing, track skipping and call control. Well, there are no buttons, just six points around the smooth circumference of the speaker where you press (quite firmly ) to perform these functions. There are symbols to indicate where these points are but these recesses and symbols are totally smooth to the touch and cannot be found in the dark or by the visually impaired. I have used blind persons stick on pads to indicate where these these recesses are to be found. In this modern world of inclusion of the disabled I am amazed, indeed shocked, that B&O have not used even the slightest mark or indentation to indicate by touch where these recesses exist. And my stick on pads surely spoil the whole B&O design concept. Wonderful sound, rubbish ergonmics. I also have a Tribit which cost 17% of the price of the B&O. I have included a picture of the Tribit's buttons in contrast to the more expensive B&O.

Klasse Lautsprecher, der Sound der 3rd Gen halt sich nochmals verbessert! halt einfach B&O.

Es el mejor altavoz que existe actualmente. En cuanto a sonido es simplemente ESPECTACULAR. Ni Bosé, ni otras marcas están a la altura de esta marca danesa. Códec AAC, apTX. Merece la pena la inversión.

Nice product as advertised.

Range is ace ‼️

Magnificent speakers.
