I’ll let the picture do the talking. From B&O’s own support pages (via Google).
I have no idea what these are all about but I wish I could feel at least a little positive about their looks. How does something like this get an approval at B&O? RIP the clean look of the E8 3rd Gen.
5 April 2022 at 07:43 #33882My guess is that it is cheap. They are missing cheap products in this segment.
But that one is not for me, really ugly.

As far as I recall the E8 Sport was at a very similar price point to that of the E8 3rd Gen at the time. The EQ was more expensive than the E8 3rd Gen, so I’d say perhaps a price between the EQ and the E8 Sport.
Thanks for the additional images. I like the colour options but I agree that this just looks horrid in my view. The earbuds remind me instantly of Apple Earpods and I get it that the “architecture” they are referring to has got its benefits, but in my view it blows up one of the core ideas about B&O, that being simplicity. This is basically admitting that they are unable to make the earbuds small enough without protruding parts. The most extreme I can go and that I have is to get a pair of EQs.
I do find a good pair of earphones great to have where using headphones would be less practical, and I have got E6, E8 (1st, 2nd, 3rd gen), E8 Sport and EQ, I am definitely skipping the EX. Never been more certain about not wanting a B&O product :(. But then again, there are more practicality-focused customers than me. I just wish B&O could fix the size issue with the EQ first, instead of making compromises like the one we see with the EX.
As for the “soul-stirring sound”, for that I have the H95.
So the next one up is Beoplay 500. Hope those headphones will not be a similar disappointment.
5 April 2022 at 10:58 #33891Where/how did you find the pics/information?
When I try searching for Beoplay EX via the Support page, there is nothing.
When I try via the Google picture result, I – on the B&O site – am greeted with a request for logging in…..which never happened before.

Which means, that they offer these new earbuds before B&O has launched them officially.
’Soul-stirring sound’…..that must be amazing ?

5 April 2022 at 16:58 #33896Maybe B&O will finally have an earbud that has good voice call clarity.
5 April 2022 at 21:38 #33897Going to get me a pair in glossy white.
Wonder if anyone will think I’ve got a pair of cheap knock-off EarPods?
