B&O website

18 replies

Beolounge to me is an example of 'look what we can do' web design but seems to have too much focus on the interface at the expense of making information quick and easy to find..

As my interest is mainly in older B&O it has had no effect at all on how often I come here. Like Jandyt I have been there twice, and I am in no rush to return.

Exactly, it is a sales-prospects harvester directed at people with minimal initial knowledge of the brand.

Not been on since the first day - far too slow for my useless broadband speed! Also not interested in being targeted.

Well, right now the B&O Website seems to be really slow to me. It takes almost 60 seconds to load the main page. Normally the page loads in several seconds. Semms like there ist some work going on in the background.

BeoLounge is actually a nice idea, but the realisation lacks the "Fun-Factor" the "Style-Factor" and just the information. There is nothing in BeoLounge that i couldn't see or geht elsewhere. Well, perhaps they will improve their "experiment" 👍

I visited once and thought it was a disaster!!

Same here. I registrated, visited and left. IMO, it is far to slow and does not give any more information than the "old" site. I hope they will come up with something new.

Their old community was far more band-width-friendly

I can't afford to visit the Beolounge - I need to spend my bandwidth on more important things ... such as Beoworld :)

Just went to Beolounge for the second time. I left pretty hastily as it was taking far too long for me to find what I wanted. Each time I clicked something it took at least a minute to load...

Much better here 😕

Maybe 'BeoLounge' could be a new word for something that is very slow 😂

They probably have teamed up with Intel, AMD and the memory manufacturers to create the most resource consuming flash banners ever. The current pages aren't quite the worst, though - before Xmas, their seasonal animations loaded my home PC so that it took about a minute just to get away from them...
