I am very glad that I started this thread, and I am now in no rush to purchase either of these models!

Get something mature that won't spoil your initial experience by constantly breaking down. The money you save, you could get some complimentary speakers too.

An 11-55, a 12-65 or in my case a 7-55(which has fixed itself!)🤒

No - not really!

I just want to see it work - before believing.

So just did the upgrade on my BV14-55 and all OK. Netflix back up and running and upgraded my account to 4K content for $2 per month. 🙂
It wasn't put back on that top row but I still had it installed anyway. When I went to log in it said it appears this device has been deactivated, click here to reactivate. Then Logged in again and got in. Followed by Nelflix prompt to upgrade to Ultra HD content if you wanted. 🙂

So i've updated my software, difficult to know exactly what the list of bugs they addressed were........i'm philiosphical with this kind of transition, though with a few things still a bit janky, difficult to know whether ongoing frustrations are down to the Android / Google Play store just not working (half an hour ago i could open the store, now it wont..)...and YouTube isn't working.....or whether its down to B&O and its implementation of the Android TV OS........i've generally found (pre / post update) the wireless connection for me is sketchy on the 14-55.........will hard wire it in soon to test it........

Anyway, the Avant NG will have the Android TV OS for anyone wondering........i do wonder why they made this choice, but then again i was fine with the old OS and using external boxes for other services......but the industry as a whole is moving in this direction, and in my view, wrongly.....tv manufacturers are not good at OS / UI / cloud services integration.......

oh, and Product Integration, which was greyed out pre-update, seems to have disappeared, so i have little confidence the multi room capability will be delivered end November as suggested....it will arrive for sure, but lord knows when.......

rant over, apologies....
