Thanks for an easy to understand narrative and demo video. I love this P2 cos it's such a convenient size I bring it along everywhere even to the bathroom. This model suits me.
Hi John, fun, informative review, as always. The P2 is a welcome addition to the range and ideal Xmas present idea. I particularly liked your attempt to change the volume by mind control and/or magic gesture. Maybe 'Izzy Wizzy, Let's Get Busy' might work? ;)
hi John. I need a speacker for call conference in smart working away from home. I also have for my office/house A1 2nd gen. I thought to buy this one but I read microphone is not too power. War do you think?
Hello! I think the Mids special Vocals sounds best on the small P2! Heavy Techno Kicks are a little distorted over 50% Vol. But Acoustic Jazz Rock or Classic sounds very good for a thing of that size!!!
I'm just doing a review of this for Amazon but I can't get my Iphone 5S to connect to it. Just keeps saying "Connection Unsuccesful". Got any suggestions as their is no manual with this and I had to come here to find out how it works thanks. Just tried it again after installing the app and going back to blue tooth settings but still get the "Connection Unsuccesful" error.
I don't know why to be honest. I planned to do a video on the Final Edition BeoLab 5 but they were sold before I could film it, I don't have any in the showroom. My opinion of them is they are fantastic, legendary speakers from Bang & Olufsen and only bettered by BeoLab 90.
I LOVE B&O stuff but there is one thing I don't like about most B&O portable speakers and that's the chargers. They are usually very cheap feeling and I feel they let the product down a bit. That said I find the speakers themselves absolutely brilliant.
I have another question regarding stereo option. Do you know if this is a hardware restriction? What I’m to work out if they may implement this feature with later firmware revisions.
Are you having any issues with customers on these? I am on unit #2 same issues will not turn on or charge. Woked great for about a week. I used it with a macbook, Ipad and Galaxy s8. Same results.
@@BangOlufsenManchester Yes, audio technica has bluetooth, but I am not able to connect with P2 when I turn it on, it unable to search for each other. I am wandering how to switch Bluetooth from P2 and connect?
I don't like the P2, its lacking lots of bass and very expensive for that to be acceptable sound quality. I'll stick with the A1 for a proper sounding small portable. What does "A" stand for? You covered all the letters but not that one.
It's because you're playing at 100% volume. Battery life decreases exponentially the higher the volume gets. Even the new generation Beosound A1 will only last around 2 to 3 hours at max but over 24 hours at 40-50%. At max volume the amplifier and battery are under a lot of stress. This is true of any battery powered speaker. It's like a car will use lots of fuel quickly at max speed and RPM but very little at slower speeds.
Hi, I've just been told by B&O that stereo pairing is not available on P2, don't know why. I wasn't made aware that the feature would be missing. I filmed this before the launch when the feature was still visible on the app, it was removed on launch day. Sorry! John
Hi i know, i have receive official email from B&O that p2 will NOT be able to play in stereo.Very disappointing because P2 is wonderful but I have return them unfortunately and bought two jbl flip 4 for stereo listening.
I'm really sorry to hear that. I apologise for the misinformation in my video. I have been in touch with Bang & Olufsen and cut out the part regarding stereo pairing so nobody else is mislead. Thanks for watching my videos and I hope you return to Bang & Olufsen in the future. All the best, John.

Hello John from Bang & Olufsen in Manchester 😂👍
Hello The Sloyd from wherever you are on the globe! John
This is as cool and adorable as you! Very nice review again!!
Thanks Newmoon.
What a lovely feature with the touch sensitivity :D Great review, John!
Thanks Epac. John
I am looking forward to more S range speakers. Good to see you can do the usual stereo pairing!
There is extravagance and there is owning a Bang and Olufsen.

Just got giften one of these.. Sound is great, but can't figure out how to turn it off? Any ideas? Cheers
I used to buy boom boxes, which where simply big bass and little more......bang and olufson is simply great sound without the over boom
How do you turn up the volume. Mine is very quiet?

Sir,
Do you have any idea how to physically adjust the volume on it? Any feature?
What does the A stand for in the beoplay a1, a2, a6 and a9?
That's an excellent question, I have no idea! But I intend to find out.....
''A'' Atrocious battery life
Bang & Olufsen of Manchester, I read somewhere that the a indicates that it features airplay. Could that by any chance be what it stands for?

B&o beoplay p2 price now ?
I know is not new, but I would like to hear your opinion about the Beolab 5. Reviews on the internet and youtube are rare for this speaker. Why?

Where can I download the equalizer
Hi.. Does it sound like the hp touch screen pc built in speaker ?..if it does.. I may be looking forward to get one😍
I have another question regarding stereo option. Do you know if this is a hardware restriction? What I’m to work out if they may implement this feature with later firmware revisions.
Why is it suddenly stop?if i put more volume.plss help
Thanks John for the review. I think I'l grab one.

Just bought two P2 today, but sadly I can't pair those in stereo mode! There are no stereo button on the app (Android ver.)
oh no, so that just a mistake...no stereo pairing for p2...what the...
Ya just mono
Can this P2 connected with vinyl player by Bluetooth?
If your turntable has Bluetooth output then yes.
@@BangOlufsenManchester Yes, audio technica has bluetooth, but I am not able to connect with P2 when I turn it on, it unable to search for each other. I am wandering how to switch Bluetooth from P2 and connect?
I'm considering to replace my beocom 6000 for a beocom 5. But nobody on the entire RUclips made a video about it... is it better than the 6000?
Bang & Olufsen no longer make telephones. In my experience BeoCom 5 was very nice and more functional than BeoCom 6000, if not quite as reliable.
what A stands for then genius?
audio for some reason
worst ever! not working after half a year.. sent back for repair and got a so-called a new one from the repair center.. can't play...
Hi! Two P2 can be (stereo) paired? Or A1 can be stereo paired? Thanks in advance!
A1 can be stereo paired, P2 can't. John
What did it taste like? =D
I don't like the P2, its lacking lots of bass and very expensive for that to be acceptable sound quality. I'll stick with the A1 for a proper sounding small portable. What does "A" stand for? You covered all the letters but not that one.
Can you pair these together???
Joel Pinay I don't think so :( I'm trying to know aswell
why my battery life is around 1 hour in 100% volume???
It's because you're playing at 100% volume. Battery life decreases exponentially the higher the volume gets. Even the new generation Beosound A1 will only last around 2 to 3 hours at max but over 24 hours at 40-50%. At max volume the amplifier and battery are under a lot of stress.

Looks like a computer mouse! But really nice detailed design
Does it support stereo pair?
Hi Rob sorry no it does not it was going to but it was pulled as a feature at launch..
Oh man, that would have made it perfect. Thanks for the response.
Hi, i'm not able to connect two p2 in stereo mode. When will stereo mode be enabled for P2 i have firmware 6.05 on both. Please help.
