Yes... I'm curious to see what it will be as it will be Beolab and not BeoSound...
BL 18 with a kind of bass module
This sounds interesting if it can be used as a standalone unit and not too big.

Thanks MM,I get it with the MyButtons, but what is then the radio source if it is not TuneIn. (edit: B&O radio) I might have missed that, but now people like myself wander in disbelief that the BS Level can’t be used the same way as BS1 / 2 and that perception might be inaccurate. (edit: YES 😀)
Thought so to. Apart from this I also had to think of a warming plate 😁
It not a new product !
Tune in still works via google voice commands

Here in the UK the bbc radio stations are no longer available via tunein on new devices and the likes of Google home and Alexa now stream bbc radio from the ‘bbc sounds’ service. Both my essence mk2 and M3 still have access to bbc on tunein however my father’s new stage does not, so there must have been an agreement made for those streams to continue on older devices for a certain period of time.
Going back to the new level though, is the radio only delivered via google assistant?
I wonder, could the streaming module hatch be there to provide an upgrade to support NL in the future??

Yes if I remember correctly the announcement from the BBC and Tunein a while back was that devices which had no obvious alternative way to access BBC radio would maintain access.Somehow that was applied across some older B&O products with continued access. I haven’t lost BBC on either my BS2 or A9.Whether that continues or not, I’m not sureHere in the UK the bbc radio stations are no longer available via tunein on new devices and the likes of Google home and Alexa now stream bbc radio from the ‘bbc sounds’ service.

Will BL28 be a replacement for BL18???

A good question!
And I guess that those, who know the answer won’t tell anything.
However, this is a BS Level thread.

No the radio is either b&o radio(via mybuttons) or tune in via google assist. I just checked and here in NL and all the bbc stations are still available on my stage via tune in😂

All BBCs have gone from the tunein app, bar world service and BBC Wales, so in my Dad’s case when setting up the stage we couldn’t add the likes of radio 2 and 4 as favourites for the B&O app to use. I suspect if I removed bbc from my favourites in tunein they’ll be gone forever from my essence and play M3.
I’m assuming the BBCs are available under the new B&O radio? Thumbs up if so. Can you have more than 3 favourites via the app? I really hope the next beolit gets this new platform +NL.
