Dear All:

I was really hoping something a little more, well, dramatic.

Should be here for Christmas and priced just below the Beocom 2. Around £600. Doesn't really grab me but certainly fills a gap.

When I saw the first blurry pictures I didn't like the Beocom 5 at all. Usually it stays that way when I see better pictures or the real thing. In this case I have to admit I was wrong. 😳 I rather like it! 🤒

I like the product very much.

But what really gets me is the marketing approach. Common B&O...you were using "the Torture-chamber" approach 15 years ago! Cant you think of a better way to market your products. Wake-Up for pity-sake!

B&O "Common". Hardly!

Agree about the 'Torture Chamber" though. Give that up B&O.

As has been commented also, it does look bit like a mobile phone.

I'm thinking about getting one for the office - but £600 is at the absolute top end of a price I'd pay for a phone. It's nice, but isn't superb. You're right Peter.

I am right in saying it's primarily an office phone? The look and the conference speaker give me that impression. I don't think it would look right in the home.

Hmmm, well atleast the Girl is nice! 😂

... and the idea that my telephone was tested with sweat... yuck!   That kills all the brand's glamour!

Well, looking at the base unit the speaker quality should be excellant...could be tempted.

Agree this is more office than home.

I would agree that office phone would be an obvious use. Also for those working from home of course. I suppose what would make it even more attractive for me would be the ability to use it as a two line phone but still have Beocom 6000s and 2s working on one of the lines as normal. As it is, I plan to stick with my present set up.

Sorry I think it was meant (05:45 in the morning!!) to say...."Come-on!" - as in Come-on B&O..you can do better.

It was me Munkey that got me log-on details wid-owt me know-win. Bad Munkey!
