Today we are here to talk to you about the latest in technology and design. You already know that in Actualidad iPhone We do not like to limit ourselves only to the devices of the Cupertino company, we also like that you are aware of the best in terms of accessories compatible with iOS at the software and hardware level. In the field of sound we can never forget Bang & Olufsen, a brand that specializes in that union of design, hardware quality and software stability that has characterized Apple over the years. This week the B&O team had a surprise to show us, the Beoplay P2, your new wireless speaker, touch and top quality materials that will not leave you indifferent.
After trying it out and talking to the B&O spokesperson at the launch event, the first thing that strikes us is why the Beoplay P2 has a design that unlike other wireless speakers, it seems that it wants to throw the sound upwards, and not in front of the user, the answer was a classic:
At Beoplay we have always opted for multidirectional audio, although this is not the best product for it, we want young people to take it out and sit around it to enjoy music. Curiously, they have asked us if we sell "docks" for this product, and the truth is that we have not considered it.
This BeoPlay P2 is made of aluminum on the top and premium plastic on the rest of the body. Goodbye buttons, it only has the synchronization at the bottom, you will control it by means of «taps» in the upper part, both to alter the volume and to change the song. You can customize the response to these "touches" through your application.
In the technical section, some tremendous quality headphones, as always at Bang & Olufsen, resistance to splashes and dust, and 12 hours of autonomy (according to the company). Surprisingly it has USB-C, this was the answer they gave us:
USB-C is the new standard, we do not want our users to worry about how they are going to insert the cable, that also adds an added durability. Soon all non-Apple devices will use USB-C, and we want to always be at the forefront of technology and quality, although what we are most concerned about is the durability of the connection.
We do not stop here in terms of details, in the multiroom era, how could it be otherwise, the Beoplay P2 can be linked in a chain. By this we mean that When we join more than one Beoplay P2 through its application, we can change not only the way we listen to music, but also the quality, and the fact is that the moment more than one P2 is connected to a device we will find stereo sound, a capacity that a Beoplay P2 alone does not have, despite the fact that the sound has left us shocked.
It does not offer a raw sound power out of the ordinary, but in terms of quality. For this we have the perfect companion, the B&O application that will allow us to configure various parameters, not only the way in which we interact with the speaker through the "touches" on the top, but also the type of music we listen to and the equalization of it. It should be noted that the P2 has a microphone on the bottom that makes it ideal for working with Siri and for conferencing since it does not offer audio return problems and the quality is spectacular thanks to its powerful Bluetooth connectivity.
In short, this BeoPlay P2 is already on the market as you can see in EAST link, from € 169 and in three colors, natural leather, metallic blue and black so that you have a choice.
