Known for crafting quality audio devices for our listening enjoyment, Bang & Olufsen is back at it again. This time around, they bring their quality sound in portable form thanks to the Beosound A1 Gen-2 Portable Bluetooth Speaker. Sleek, stylish, and updated from previous iterations, the Beosound A1 Gen-2 speaker offers a refined new aesthetic. The speaker introduces new functionalities such as Alexa assistance, a world-first for a Bluetooth-only speaker.
Other updates include upgrading battery life with up to 18 hours of playtime and a new user interface. The IP67 certification means it can be submerged in water up to one meter deep for 30 minutes, while also safe from sand and dirt. The inclusion of Alexa makes the device easier to use as an assistant for day-to-day tasks.
It works hand-in-hand with Far Field technology, allowing you to connect with Alexa from up to five meters away. The device also boasts a 3-microphone array, providing crisp call clarity when being used as a speakerphone.
