That being said, the folks at Bang & Olufsen have recently taken the wraps off the BeoPlay A2. These are the company’s first Bluetooth speakers which is interesting given that the company has been known for their high-end home theater systems, and surprisingly they cost around $399/€350/£299 which is less than what we had initially thought.
The speakers will feature a power output of 180 watts, a woofer, a tweeter, and a passive bass radiator, all of which will be crammed into the speaker’s tiny body. Unfortunately there does not appear to be a Bluetooth speakerphone feature which seems to be pretty common in Bluetooth speakers. The company claims that they’d rather focus their efforts on bringing customers the best sound possible.
As for battery life, Bang & Olufsen is boasting a whopping 24 hour battery life, although they claim that in their tests, they have managed to squeeze out around 30 hours but they state that 24 hours should be what most customers end up experiencing.
