B&O Beoplay P2 review

(Rating Hidden)

There are few Bluetooth speakers out there that can compete with the quality of the B&O Beoplay P2. The top-end audio brand has done it again - a small, compact but good-looking Bluetooth speaker with their signature touch of quality. Find out if the...

B&O Play Beoplay P2 review

I've been meaning to review B&O Play Beoplay P2 for a while, but only recently got my hands on a review sample. (Believe it or not, the full name is "B&O Play by Bang & Olufsen Beoplay P2.") At $169 (£149, AU$249), it's currently the company's least...

The Beoplay P2 is a stylish, travel friendly, splash-resistant Bluetooth speaker that delivers impressive sound for its small size. Battery life is decent (10 hours), and there's a built-in microphone for voice calling and voice activation.

Pricey; lack of physical buttons for playback control may not appeal to some users.

If you can overlook that high price tag, the Beoplay P2 is a very nice little Bluetooth speaker that delivers top-notch sound for its size class.

B&O Play Beoplay P2

Though pricey for its size, the B&O Play Beoplay P2 delivers a strong, rich Bluetooth audio experience in a graceful design.

Touch-sensitive controls. Shake-based feature can be used to skip tracks or control other functions. Useful app allows you to customize EQ and controls.

Mono audio only. Expensive for the size.

For the size, the B&O Play Beoplay P2 is an excellent-sounding portable Bluetooth speaker that can get quite loud and deliver a solid sense of bass depth. For the price, you might expect a stereo driver array, or simply larger drivers that deliver more...

Beoplay P2 review: Impressive sound from such a small speaker

For $250 you can buy some serious Bluetooth speakers – big in size, big in volume. Or you can look to B&O PLAY for the Beoplay P2 which is small enough to fit in the palm of your hand but will impress you with its sound. The average buyer...

Brilliant. Easy to set up.

Absolutely delighted with this item. Small enough to pop into handbag for day out or holiday. Easy to set up. Wonderful sound quality. Great for audio books and music alike.

disappointed

Brought this to listen to music from my iPod Nano (7th gen). Sound was really quiet, even when on loudest setting. Connected it to my iPad and sound was much better- excellent quality and good volumes available. However, after a few plays, it stopped...

You get what you pay for with this B&O speaker

Whilst B&O products are not cheap you do get clearly identifiable quality. The sound quality and appearance is much better than others I've looked at. I thought I'd still fear to damage it carrying it around but it's made of strong stuff. The slim...

Xmas gift

I purchased this high-spec B & O speaker for my husband, specifically for use travelling (following assistance from a J Lewis Audio staff member). He commented that the instructions for use were not very helpful. It took him some time to be able to...

Great little piece of kit

A very robust and great sounding little speaker that has been around the world with me since I bought mine a year ago. This purchase was for my wife and daughter who were always ‘borrowing' my one - now they don't have to! What better testimonial can I...
