If you haven't bought the new A2...

I did a few months ago and have used it almost every day which for me marks a good product. 2 weeks after I brought it my partner knocked it off the back of a sofa onto a tiled floor. I rushed to it expecting the worst only to find that the case had popped open a little and was easily snapped shut again (now I know how to get to the hidden USB port) and it continued to work faultlessly. This event provided a new found respect for the build quality- made in China or not. It is a desirable product for the almost masses too, which is great for B&O. It came to the work Christmas lunch with me playing a seasonal playlist off Spotify on my iPhone. It subtly swung off an intravenous drip stand in the back of the room attracting all sorts of admiring glances, often from people who wouldn't normally get interested about such a thing. I did play it off against the Beolit at the dealers but I am glad I went for the cheaper model, not something that you would normally hear from me. I love the speed and stability of the Bluetooth connection and its sheers practicality. This time of year you'll find it in my garden next to the pool while I swim. It might be small but it's got sound enough to enjoy at the other end of the pool. Copping the occasional splash from the dog jumping in and out it gets a quick wipe down at the end and looks as good as new. Gorgeous and functional, what more could you want.

I hate using terms like "lifestyle product" but I guess if it fits...

And on holiday...

BTW loving the Beoworld app 😁

Great sound,no wifi dropouts.

So far a great product!
