  • Beosound 1 with wireless dock (Portable)

Nice

It doesn’t reveal too much

I wonder if this comes on the back of Xbox being able to pair up with WISA products now?

It’s just a detail of al BeoLab 90... not the B&O - XBox product

The grills seem to have a different texture than fabric as on the 90s. Other than the grill surface/material it looks like it is a 90.

It's a BL90.

It’s a good step forward that they try to reach a new market in gaming; however they definitely missed the working from home market and the Covid-19 breakout.

Everyone in my office had to go and buy a headphones / headset for home. it would have been good to see B&O even advertise to reach a new audience. Again slow to market / adapt.

But let’s see what comes of the Xbox crowd.

I guess, that is just the way B&O usually teases new products.
