Last month, B&O Play launched its line of audio devices in Manila, from headphones to Bluetooth speakers. Our first impression of their devices is that they are bigger than those offered by other audio device makers. Normally, bigger means better and upon...

It's clear that B&O paid close attention to the choice of materials and overall design of the BeoPlay A2. This cuboid-shaped portable speaker has very rounded edges and, like an unappetising sandwich, all the circuitry and parts are held in on either side...
Quality audio, Excellent volume, Limited distortion, Broad, stable diffusion, Easy to use and transport, Meticulous design and finish, USB port for charging an external device, Very robust...
Treble overemphasised on one side, Stereo experience impossible, No handsfree function, No NFC, Mains charging, No precise indication of remaining power, Tendency to fall over when stood on its little, nonslip feet...
Given its fairly elitist price point (£299/$399), the BeoPlay A2 is only for those who want both quality sound and a meticulous, original and compact design. It's up against the likes of the B&W T7, a speaker that we would recommend for consumers wanting...

At AUD$479, the BeoPlay A2 certainly isn't a cheap Bluetooth speaker. However, thanks to a combination of great sound quality, excellent battery life and slick design, the BeoPlay A2 is a speaker boasting style without forsaking substance. If you're just...

The BeoPlay A2 produces remarkable sound considering the thin design which is shaped like a small handbag. The speaker is only 45mm thick, with a slight bulge, and when you lie it flat its footprint is slightly narrower than an iPad.It's an omni-direction...

Bang and Olufsen is best known for making specialist, high-end and stylish products. So when it lends its Scandinavian sense of premium-quality minimalist design to a portable Bluetooth speaker (the company's first), you know it'll be special. The B&O Be...

The B&O A2 comes off as a touch clinical and soulless, but there's plenty to admire about its detailed, spacious sound and clean presentation. Its stylish design is appealing, as is the lengthy 24-hour battery life. It may not be class leading, but the A2...

There are two other remarkable features to the A2. One is that, due to B&O's True360 technology, the A2 radiates 360-degree sound (which we've seen in a couple of high-end products this year) but in stereo, seemingly audible from any angle. I don't quite...

479 is a lot of money for the Bang & Olufsen BeoPlay A2, but that's largely because it's made by B&O; you're paying for the premium design and quality construction. You're certainly not overpaying for its sound quality or for the extent of its battery li...
