Truly Portable
Built-in microphone
True360 Sound
Authentic, durable materials

Even the heaviest beats are easy to carry.
Beoplay A1 is small enough to sit in the palm of your hand, it weighs only 600g, and because of its shape (with no protruding buttons or legs), it is easy to store in your bag or slip into a pocket. So you can enjoy Bang & Olufsen Signature Sound on the go or when you get there.

Durability
Robust design
Splash and dust resistant.

The rounded aluminium grill of A1 is both a thing of beauty and of strength, and together with the double-moulded polymer base, it forms a strong protective shell for the components within. This makes A1 splash and dust resistant, adding an extra layer of portability to this already highly versatile speaker.

Sound
More sound. More bass.
True360 sound dispersion

Packing a punch well beyond its weight and size, A1 has ambient True360 Bang & Olufsen Signature Sound – ensuring an even and balanced dispersion of sound wherever you put it. And with a peak power of 2×140 W, you won’t have to huddle round it to enjoy your music.

Microphone
I hear you loud and clear
Beoplay A1 has a built-in microphone for making calls.

Because of the rimmed design around the base of the unit, the microphone gives uniform speech sensitivity 360º around the speaker. This makes voice recognition at the other end of the call much easier. Thanks to the microphone, you’ll also be able to activate Apple Siri and Google Now voice commands by simply pressing a button.

Battery life
Up to 24 hours
Add a soundtrack to your adventures.

With up to 24 hours* of battery life, Beoplay A1 will still be playing long after most competitors have gone silent.

And when you do eventually need to charge it, Beoplay A1’s smart charging system will adapt charging speed to match the capacity of the USB charger you are using – so it will quickly be ready for the next adventure
