## Description

Bang & Olufsen Beosound Explore – Portable Bluetooth Speaker, Waterproof (IP67), Outdoor Loud Speaker for Travel, Home & Camping, 360 Degree Sound, 27 Hours Battery Life - Green : desertcart.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

Review: So pretty. So perfect. So green. - Urrrrgh, it's just perfect! It's genuinely even more wonderful in person. It's small enough to hold in the palm of your hand (see photo of it in the palm of my hand), and it's stunning. I know, looks don't matter, etc etc, except they absolutely do, of course they do, and this is the Angelina Jolie of speakers; the Ana de Armas of bluetooth... so gorgeous you'll want to do unspeakable things to it. I'm not a degenerate, so I'm just using it to play music but, honestly, your mileage may vary, and I won't judge you for it. Just quickly, I know apps are a pain, and bloody everything wants you to download a bloody app these days, but this app is worth getting. You can change your sound mode (adjust bass, etc); use it to pair two speakers together for stereo, etc etc. Definitely worth getting - you're very limited with what you can do from the unit itself: essentially, on, off, skip, play, and volume control. It pairs with my phone's bluetooth easily - catches it first time within a second or so, and makes a delightful plink-plonk sound when you turn it on. The sound is lovely... but, I admit, it could maybe do with having a bit more bass, if that's your sort of thing. Again, you can increase the bass via the app (photos shows the wheel you use - you can manually move the sound around and land on your perfect spot), but if you like it super, super deep, this may not scratch your itch. Saying that, for my sins, I've discovered a guilty love for dubstep, and this showcases the heavy drops (God forgive me) very nicely. (I am legitimately ashamed of using the phrase "heavy drop" in front of people.) The battery is amazing, too - I'm fairly convinced it lasts longer than 27 hours, because I've used it a tonne, and I've yet to re-charge it. If it's not been in use for 27hrs yet, it's very close, and there are no issues with sound quality or lag or owt. The only thing I would say is, for the money, you'd want it to come with a case, ideally. I'll treat mine like the treasure that it is, and I'll never let any harm come to it, but knocks can and do happen (just not to mine!) so a case being included would have been good. It comes with two flimsy silicone caps for the top and bottom but they're no good. I bought this hard shell case at the same time, and it works a treat (and it matches!) so that's highly recommended, too. Lovely, Green Speaker is probably my most treasured possession, and I can't see the novelty of it ever wearing off, so if you're on the fence, I can't say enough good things about it. (But, given my taste in music, I would not blame you if you feel I can't be trusted.)
Review: Blown away. - I ‘come from’ a reasonably high-end separates system many years ago and then onto many headphones, some very high-end for their time(HiFiMan HE-6, HD800s etc)but have now transitioned to living a very spartan existence, mostly free from possessions and wanting as few things as possible in my flat. Deciding I needed a break from the headphones I’ve kept, I thought a Bluetooth speaker might be an idea to go with my inexpensive little HiBy R4 dap. This was what I decided on after some reading, and also a lot of knowledge of the design and build history of B&O. Suffice it to say that this tiny(I’m sure many were surprised by its diminutive footprint)little thing has just knocked my socks off and the sound is genuinely revelatory given its size, and cost. Powerful-sounding with a stunning sense of presence; clear, fast and layered sound. Completely seamless Bluetooth integration with my device. Build quality and feel is fabulous. A joy to look at, hold and use. I personally have no need for the app so I cannot comment on that aspect. B&O have a huge range of such speakers going from around this price point all the way up to many thousands and I’m wondering just how much better-sounding some of the ones costing say 400-circa 1000+ might sound. Not that it really matters - this sounds more than good enough for its intended purpose. Rock, soundtracks(the extended 3-disc The Good, The Bad And The Ugly soundtrack is unbelievably stunning), classical, 60’ pop/folk, 50’s female jazz, Icelandic metal ….everything sounds really, really good, to the point that outside of a genuine stereo set-up, or perhaps a tad more bass impact, this is pretty much good enough. For me that is!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will this connect to ion audio air turntable ?**
A: It connects via bluetooth. Do they have bluetooth? If so then yes.

**Q: Speaker output Watts?? Why is that not listed in the description the most important thing on a speaker is the power volume output 🤔🤔**
A: I have a couple of other B&O speakers. The A1 being the most comparable and the explorer sounds even better. I got the green one which looks really cool too. The sound quality is deep and the bass sounds good. I’m looking for an excuse to buy another.

**Q: Does it work with Apple desktops... or just iPhones?**
A: It is no problem to connect my laptop not Mac just PC.

**Q: is this hi res?**
A: I'm not sure what that means in the context of a portable speaker that links to your device via Bluetooth. It's an enjoyable listen, but it's not a hi-fi product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Oozes quality in materials, design and sound
*by J***H on 12 October 2024*

Love this speaker. The colour and finish on my green one exude quality. It’s just wonderfully designed and feels reassuringly heavy for such a small unit. The sound quality is great when tailored using the graphic equaliser in the app. Many reviews say it doesn’t have the best bass. If you want something to over amplify and thud out overpowering bass that shakes your windows buy something else. This is high fidelity where treble, mids and bass are all very nicely and proportionately presented into a very pleasing pure sound. Bass enjoyably deep and tuneful. To get the best sound quality you have to be aware that positioning has a big effect. If it’s on a shelf, windowsill, high/low position, hanging or in an alcove the sound profile changes considerably. That’s where the app comes in. Find the location you want to place it, then go to the app and use the graphic equaliser to perfect the sound to your preference. Set up and the using the app are simple as they possibly could be. The interface is very slick and intuitive. If I had to think of a negative, it could perhaps have next/previous track controls on the unit. Other than that I can’t recommend it highly enough for anyone who wants a beautiful, classy, easily portable Bluetooth speaker with Hifi sound quality rather than a bass-swamped party speaker. EDIT: my negative comment about no prev/next track buttons on the unit is irrelevant now I’ve found out that 2 presses on the play button goes to next track. Three presses goes to previous track.
