Probably.

 

What do AirPods offer in real world listening?

 

 

I can't remember, but I do know that the AirPods carrying case also charges them/keeps them charged in your pocket. No mention if the B&O carrying case does this.

They do. You get two charges from the case.

Interesting - announced. But not available until October?!

I said that above - B&O were either going to buy a company/product or re-badge another. No way they had the in-house tech to produce an E8 themselves.

Product ‘launches’ where you can’t buy the product for six weeks are the very worst kind of product launches.

Yeah strikes me as a bit odd. Loses a bit of the impetus.

Totally. I had my wallet at the ready this morning. Now, they’ll be coming out after I’ve blown my budget on a new iPhone, Apple Watch and Apple TV next month!

I think it's because Sony and others released their earbuds this week and B&O didn't want to be left behind.

I just came here to post the same thing! I’m just looking at Sony’s promo videos for their new range. ANC in a pair of earbuds would be perfect for hot summer commuting.

Beoplay E8 = Samsung Gear Icon X ?

Interesting.... wasn't the Beosound 6 also a re-branded (rebadged) Samsung product? 🤔

Anyway... I'm a little confused about the 'transparency' mode. Does this mean they have some sort of noise cancellation circuitry, or are they more like IEM's that can virtually isolate external noise via the ear tip seals?

I think the only intriguing aspect for me (at this time) would be the elimination of cable noise that can still be experienced in the H5's. 

There will also be a new multiroom speaker called 'Beoplay M3'. However maybe this product will be introduced later this year. It is already for a month on FCC listing so wonder thy nobody else spotted it.

This is how it might look like, seen from the bottom of the product.
