Reviews around range (4.16 of 5)

  • It has a great range of sound and a battery that lasts twice as long despite being half the size of our wireless Bose
  • The sound range is good up and down the scale, and the speaker is powerful enough to fill a room, without taking-up lots of room.
  • Enough volume and frequency range to satisfy for a little while while your in a place where it's socially acceptable to use a speaker as opposed to headphones
  • it boomed out with a reasonable range of treble to bass and was very pleasant to listen to
  • The tap to pause and play feature doesn't work as well as it could

Reviews around size (4.10 of 5)

  • All in all, Minirig Mini is a better quality and less expensive mini size portable speaker.
  • All in all, Minirig Mini is a better quality and less expensive mini size portable speaker.
  • Bottom line for me is that the sound is just what I like from B & O and the size is perfect.
  • The speaker has a great sound and size is perfect for traveling
  • So, to recap, excellent sound, fantastic size, but marred by the choice of USB-C interface for charging.

Reviews around look (4.03 of 5)

  • The volume level is the most perplexing issue - guess B&O quality control continues to lag (obviously the company has no idea about or interest in Six Sigma).In an attempt to “fix” the problem I have uninstalled and reinstalled the B&O app, deleted and reestablished the Bluetooth connection, but neither seemed to make a difference.
  • This little speaker delivers big rich sound with characteristic B&O clarity way out of proportion to its diminutive size
  • , B&O is expensive, but you are getting an excellent speaker that will probably last a decade or more.
  • The instructions are online, buried at the B&O website – annoying!-Charge does seem to last a “long”
  • This is the most powerful of all current B&O portable speakers.

Reviews around quality (3.95 of 5)

  • The tap to pause and play feature doesn't work as well as it could
  • The sound quality is absolutely stunning given the size
  • As far as sound quality, like most other mini speakers, this has exaggerated bass and highs, with less definition in the mid range.
  • However, the Sony XB10 Portable Wireless Speaker with Bluetooth, Red (2017 model) is a more user friendly and cheaper bluetooth speaker for much lower price with inferior sound quality compared to the more expensive Bang & Olufsen P2 speaker.
  • Sound quality is good for the size but disappointed how it doesn’t have better gripper feet...as it is, it vibrates off the table - even at low volumes.

Reviews around design (3.86 of 5)

  • 1 star off for not so great battery life, no universal micro/mini USB charger, clumsy power button design (hard to press and have to hold), useless feature of shake/tap to play/skip/pause and price
  • The design of the components has landed them in many museums as examples of the finest industrial design
  • Sony Wins!The B&O Play is a very elegant black design with only one button on the back of the speaker for on/off
  • The draw is the more compact housing and overall design.
  • I own quite a bit of B&O and beoplay products:2 Pairs of H6, H3, 2 A1s, a beolit17 and beolit12, A3, Beoplay s8, 2 Beosound8s, Beosound 3 and Beosound1.***This hardware gives me the same horrors I experienced with the defective beosound3 keypad design

  • I finally only got it to work after downloading the (free) B&O Play app
  • After reading other reviews I am also wondering if I might have been sold a defective and previously returned product - while the speaker and wire were wrapped (not sealed) the box itself was not shrink wrapped

Reviews around bass (3.07 of 5)

  • The instructions are online, buried at the B&O website – annoying!-Charge does seem to last a “long”
  • Ignore the reviewers that mention it only being able to fill a tiny room or not enough bass
  • The volume level is the most perplexing issue - guess B&O quality control continues to lag (obviously the company has no idea about or interest in Six Sigma).In an attempt to “fix” the problem I have uninstalled and reinstalled the B&O app, deleted and reestablished the Bluetooth connection, but neither seemed to make a difference.
  • OMG it came out of the play with a very satisfactory bass and flawless highs
  • It has wonderful bass (maybe a bit too much or too muddy) but overall excellent and far better than the cheap blue tooth speakers

Reviews around app (3.02 of 5)

  • I just kept it at the default.- Looks like we will need the app for any firmware updates
  • The app wasn't very intuitive and there is no manual included in the box, just a legal disclaimer packet
  • The app worked fine on my S8 and the speaker worked well without any firmware update.
  • The app seems to demand your GPS location permission or it won't work at all
  • The app offers other options for the tap and shake functions – Alarm, Tonetouch (Sound Presets), Last Played Song (Remembers last song), Voice (Invokes Siri) or None

Reviews around shake (1.00 of 5)

  • , phone answer/hang up, for music there a shake that changes to the next song, etc
  • The shake to go to the next song is a bit gimmicky, but tapping to pause is very useful
  • The tap to pause and play feature doesn't work as well as it could
  • The touch-shake sensor pauses playback at high volumes, so I had to disable it.
