As Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2016 nears, LG has already made on official announcement regarding its anticipated LG G5 smartphone. The South Korean company has revealed a new partnership with B&O Play, a division of the premium audio brand Bang & Olufsen, and together they will be bringing high-quality audio features to upcoming LG devices, name-dropping the upcoming LG G5 specifically.
Bang & Olufsen has introduced its new BeoPlay H7 wireless headphones. This latest pair of headphones features a wire-free design coupled with advanced features like a touch-based control pad. As with the maker's other products, the functionality is joined by sleek form, with both aluminum and leather making its way into the construction. On top of it all, B&O promises the headphones offer "amazing sound quality."
Bang & Olufsen has a long history of making speakers that are very high-end and very expensive. Perhaps the highest end speaker that the company has ever made has been unveiled and it is called the BeoLab 90. The specifications for these speakers are impressive and sound very expensive. Each speaker packs 8200 watts of power.
Bang & Olufsen's Play series of more affordable, playful speakers has gained a new behemoth, in the shape of the fortune cookie-like BeoPlay A6. The unusually shaped speaker joins its smaller brethren in packing wireless for streaming from a computer or smartphone, including support for B&O's multi-location system.
There was a time not so long ago when audiophiles and equipment makers shunned "wireless" sound technology because of their degradation of quality for the sake of mobility. Now, even the acclaimed Bang & Olufsen is getting into the game. Their latest masterpiece isn't just one piece of equipment. It is all of B&O's pieces combined into a single multiroom experience. Called BeoLink Multiroom, this wireless network links together any and all Bang & Olufsen speaker or appliance, creating a virtual orchestra of pure listening bliss wherever in the house you go.
HP is going back to school, and it’s taking a trio of new ENVY notebooks to class. Offered in 14-, 15.6-, and 17.3-inch screen sizes, the refreshed models are thinner and lighter than their predecessors, not to mention made of higher-quality materials and using batter displays. Even the style has been given a boost, with the two small models in particular borrowing some of the aluminum class of the handsome HP Spectre X360.
When you hit ninety you could be forgiven for slowing down, but Bang & Olufsen is celebrating its 90th anniversary by giving some of its recent highlights the rose gold treatment. Dubbed "The Love Affair Collection", the name might be a little cheesy but the tech isn't, spanning B&O's best-selling BeoPlay H6 headphones all the way through to the indecently vast BeoVision Avant 85 with its 85-inch, 4K display.
No longer teamed up heartily with Beats by Dre, HP has sought out a new audio partnership for PCs of the future. With Bang & Olufsen, HP has the partnership they're prepared to present for the foreseeable future. Bang & Olufsen and B&O PLAY will be brought to HP’s PCs, tablets, and accessories in the near future, pushing an "exceptional sound experiences for customers." This means Bang & Olufsen will go ahead and "custom tune" every notebook, desktop, tablet, and accessory HP attaches them to in the future.
The Beolit 15 is the latest speaker system from the Scandinavian high end audio company Bang and Olufsen. This is one powerful speaker, even if it looks just like a small picnic basket. Don't let its diminutive size fool you. It's probably biggest selling point is its multi-directional True360 sound. It's designed to project music in every direction instead of just directly in front. So, no matter where you or your guests are standing in the room, you should all hear the same quality sound and volume.
When it comes to high-end home theater and audio products, Bang & Olufsen is one of the names that comes to mind for many. B&O and BMW have announced that the refreshed BMW 6 Series that is arriving in showrooms soon has some new features on the inside. Namely, a surround sound system that carries the B&O name.
Acclaimed audio makers Bang & Olufsen are no strangers to the mobile industry, but here at CES 2015 they are unveiling some rather interesting products that represent a few firsts. Among these is the Play H8 headphones. B & O are positioning this as their first wireless headphones, but they are definitely more than just that. Not only do they offer active noise cancellation for an even better listening experience, they also have a touch interface that makes it easier to control your music on the go.
Bang & Olufsen has a few wares on display here at CES 2015, but undoubtedly the most eye-catching piece of them all is the BeoSound Moment, a sound system, practically a sound system controller in the form of a large tablet-like slab, that has a few gimmicks up its sleeve. Of all those features, the most prominent, because also the most visible, is the wooden side, which features what B & O calls the world's first touch-sensitive wood interface. Fortunately, that isn't its only great feature.
