Curious: how does the presence of a microphone indicate it is just a design study? The A1 has a microphone built into it in a similar manner.

Edit: Sorry, I think I misinterpreted you implying a connection between it being a design study and featuring a microphone. It is indeed a design study and happens to have a microphone, simple as that, right?

This is an A3 - still in use at my place....but not very often anymore.

I am pretty sure, that if something of that sort was coming, it would be called P and (probably) a 3 - since P has been used lately for these small devices.

Yes just a bad concept from a design students : there are all the design aspects of a Beolit 15 but in a circular form... even the border at the top which was there to place your phone securely and is now useless. There is no useless form on B&O products, even on Beoplay products (useless software from time to time...)

Yes, I got excited thinking it could be a smart speaker.

B&O showed off a BS1 at CES last month with a microphone - wouldn't be surprised if the BS1 and BS2 are updated this fall with microphones to enable voice control...

Oh I really love it.

If it has google assistant then I’d replace my google homes.

Cortana, Siri, Alexa, Echo, Sonos, and now BeoPlay. Maybe they can bring their cloth covers and color palette to one of the major players. Otherwise, I fear that "hello Frederik", will represent loneliness and dissatisfaction.
