Beoremote Halo, the future B&O remote control

I hope it allows for volume control of the 50s. Right now I have to switch between the Core window and the BL50 window in the app, or between the Core and BL50 modes on the Beoremote 1. I guess we will know soon enough in the next few weeks.
I very much doubt the Halo will offer the broad functionality I need to control my motley collection of new and vintage B&O gear and third party solutions.
If it can control my BeoLab 90s and 50s, BeoVision 4-103 (including single-touch access to the record function and the TV guide in my Sky box), Beogram CD 5500 and Beocord 5500, as well as accessing the music on the hard drive attached to my Auralic Aries, there's a good chance I'll be investing £750 in it.
If not, it's relatively unlikely.

That would be great! I am very curious about the halo...😳
I am looking forward to it. My dealer has said he will notify me as soon as they are available for order.
I was told it will be in the next few weeks, will have the three choice buttons as the beoremote 1, would not be a complete replacement for a Beoremote but something to sit along side but will be able to control a V1 or BV11!
had a quick look at the pictures but only a very quick glance! but does look good and think they said it would be around £750.
It’s only BT or IP, not IR.
Since NL BeoVisions/BeoSystem 4 can be controlled by the B&O app, I can see how they could still be controlled by the Halo even without IR.
