Beocom 5 Has Arrived (previous subject Beocom Delayed)

11 replies

I'm very disappointed that my birthday / Christmas present still isn’t available - apparently they found a software bug and so have delayed the release (which I suppose is better than getting it and it not working). Has anybody been told when they may take delivery?

I'm in exactly the same boat, was all set to be my birthday/christmas present but now I'll probably get some sense into me and just disconnect my phone line and spend the money I was planning for the Beocom5 elsewhere.

MY dealer told me that late Jan/ early Feb 2010 will be the release date of Beocom 5

My local dealer - Bang & Olufsen of Tenterden in Kent have told me they are taking delivery of Beocom 5's on the 23rd Dec !

They also have Beotime's in stock 😕

They just called me, they have arrived and i am going to pick mine up

me too, just picked mine up and it is very lovely - registered with the base no problem, picked up the common phone book and called my wife to say thank you for my Birthday / Christmas present, all took less than 3 minutes!!

Having only ever seen pictures of the phone and base I was worried the base would be quite large, but I'm pleased to say it isn't and it looks stunning.

please post some picture🙂

 

Here you go - you get a good idea of size next to a 6000.

I'm not 100% sure but I think the phone will live in the bedroom

Nice photo's!

Is the soundQuality of the bc-5 better then bc-6000.

Tell us about your experience.

 

Thanks, I was going to leave it a few days rather than giving a knee jerk reaction about the overall quality, but 1st impressions are very good - easy install, very obvious how to use the phone, very nice to hold, my wife could tell I was using the base speaker rather than holding the phone when I called, but no problem with clarity.

Having bought a Serene (which I loved) and a Seranata (which I'm not so impressed with) the Beocom 5 is much more Serene than Serenata - which is a very good thing.
