Hi
I was asking for a price on a V1 today.
The nice salesman told me a price, and then told me that the V1 would be discontinued in the fall. He also said that there is no replacement planned.
Does anyone know if this is true?
Kind Regards J;-)

V1 discontinued? No Replacement?

That seems to be correct.

I might be misinformend but is the V1 not a good TV. Why discontinue it?
And what TV should I get instead, I'm guessing there is no BV for me in that price range to replace my wonderful BV3 (must be 13 years old).
It is a very good tv, indeed - and it has a lot of 'followers'.
No direct replacement, however does not mean, that there will be another tv from B&O.

Is it good enough for me to buy a TV that is being discontinued or should I wait and hope for a new playTV. Economy isn't ready for a BV I think.

Hard to give any advice there - when one does not know what will come. Personally I don't believe that there will be a new B&O Play tv.
But if you like the V1 - and it does, what you expect from a (Bang & Olufsen) tv - there is a very good reason to buy it soon: you can expect to get it at a reasonable price!

Like anything that's going to be discontinued - it's price that's key. If you can get a deal, and you're happy with it, then it's a good deal. Enjoy!
The V1 is a great TV. Some people love the design, some people hate it - but at the end of the day it has a superb PQ, great sound - and all the features of the latest smart TV's.
We all demanded the pin-sharp B&O picture quality, great motion handling, superb B&O sound, all the latest features, yet a low price. B&O gave that to us in the V1 - and we turned our noses up!! Sometimes Struer just can't win......
I love the V1. It's one of the most 'under the radar' TV's B&O have ever made. You'll miss it when it's gone.
