Is this what B&O is all about now??

Its so BIG for a start.

Where has the ultru chic design gone? - the feeling that one is holding something special?? at a time when so many manufacturers are comming out with super slim devices we are offered this alarmingly large device that is not particularly advanced technically and has put mobile phone design back four years.I dont think this product will do B&O any favours and more worryingly seems to concrete my opinion that B&O is becoming about badge and little else. I just hope that all wont go the way of the BV8- a b&o design only and the rest made in China for a LOW price- you can fool some of the people some of the time.

Well if it has HSDPA then I can finally justify buying one when it comes out 😁, as I use my current "Samsung" as my broadband connection!  Only worry is the battery life, as all Samsung mobiles are renowned for poor battery life as they give you two batteries with each new phone!

Silly question perhaps?
But where is the alphanumeric dial pad? On the reverse?
Could there be something 'interesting' in the way one works the machine?

Isn´t BV8 made in what we used to call eastern europe? It´s no surprise and not news to me that parts are made in other countries or by other supliers. Theres also a lot of danish companies which deliver parts for Beo products. However quite a lot are made in Struer. The aluminium, producs like BV4, BV7, BV9, BL5  etc I have no problems with that. I know development are made in Struer and that these supliers have to deliver in quality standards set by Beo.

First of all I like the design of Serene too but reading some of the replies I can´t help thinking a 1 year and half back. A lot of Beoworlders had the same opinion on Serene. I will not make a final judgement before seeing it in flesh. Like some of you I´ve also been thinking how Serenata is operated. The specs says touch sensible screen but do you think they mean the screen seen on the pic or do think it has another on the back side or.....
