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

I already have the earlier version of this (the 2nd gen) and didn't think this Bang & Olufsen Beosound A1 (3rd gen) could be any better, but it really exceeded my expectations. The sound quality is incredible and the great bass blew me away. There are some things which are not worth scrimping on. Sound quality and superb design give lasting pleasure and you forget the price as soon as you open the (stunning) box. I chose the warm granite colour, you can't go wrong with that, it blends in with any decor and looks really cool. The exquisite design and sound quality make it worth every penny, and you get free updates on the software. Also, B&O customer service is outstanding - the best I've ever known.

I purchased this to replace my 7 year old Bose micro sound link. No regrets, astounding sound, perfect design, worth the expense and personifies ‘ you get what you pay for’.

Brilliant sound from a relatively petite device. Clear sound of a decent audio quality. Impressive bass from the downward firing speaker. Connects readily with my Samsung S25 and Sony Walkman. Smart appearance and very well made.

It's good! But 'Up to 24 hours play time' is absolute nonsense, do not expect anywhere remotely close to this.

Listen, I tried Sony, JBL, Audio Pro, Soundcore, but this B&O unit just blows them all completely off world. It's astonishing actually.

Brilliant. Portable and the sound is exceptional.

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.

Excellent sound. Separate drivers. Small form factor. Recommended A+++++

Hoparlor super ama bass yuzunden kendi kendine masadan atladi. Altina bez koymak lazim

Voci e chitarre splendide: uno speaker per chi cerca la raffinatezza Bang & Olufsen si conferma un grandissimo marchio. Questa Beosound A1 di terza generazione è uno speaker pensato soprattutto per chi privilegia la qualità e il dettaglio del suono. Non aspettatevi bassi travolgenti o un volume esagerato: qui, secondo me, sono le voci e le chitarre a conquistare, con una chiarezza e una naturalezza davvero splendide. Per il mio gusto, dà il meglio entro il 70% del volume, mantenendo un suono particolarmente pulito e piacevole. Tra gli speaker così piccoli e facilmente trasportabili che ho provato, è difficile trovare una chiarezza paragonabile. Anche i materiali sono di altissimo livello e trasmettono subito una sensazione di qualità. Migliorabile, invece, l’app: la trovo lenta e poco ricca di funzionalità. Un peccato per un prodotto altrimenti così curato. Consigliatissima a chi cerca un ascolto raffinato anche in mobilità.

Terrific sound

Everything's good.
