Beosound Explore Portable Bluetooth Speaker - Green

This speaker is amazing. I got it on sale. The price for this speaker I feel is worth every penny. The speaker does have weight to it. Not too heavy but because it is made out of quality metal it adds weight compared to cheap plastic ones. However that weight provides better sound since there is no rattling like plastic speakers. It’s a great size and looks amazing wherever you put it. It performs great in small rooms but in large rooms if you put it towards the center of the room it really fills the room. The sound is incredible for something so small. The quality of the sound doesn’t change as you turn it even all the way up. I was really impressed at what a clean sound it has. I do move it from room to room and bought it primarily for around the house but have also used it outside and taken it with me. Because it’s metal and looks so good and I want to keep it that way when putting it in a bag I put it in a small case type bag. However I haven’t been overly careful sign it around the house and even dropped it and nothing happened to it. The strap is well made also and really convenient and looks good because it’s well made as well. I had high expectations because the company makes great products but it even surpassed those expectations. I get endless compliments about it and have had friends order one right after seeing and hearing it and they were surprised at the price not being much higher. You will not regret buying this speaker.

Durable, fast to connect, great battery and beautiful. This is a clear sounding speaker not a bass machine. If you have your expectations in check (it is a quality over quantity thing) It sound so clean but there is no overemphasized bass (there are no passive radiators just two smaller full range drivers) Use this on your adventures for casual listening and you will be blown away over time as you will pickup on the accuracy and quality sound that is not flashy at first listen. The real star of the show here is the heavy duty build quality. This thing is the most “tank like” Bluetooth speaker I have ever experienced honestly. I think if you threw this at something or dropped it, something might get damaged but the speaker WILL survive. Its so heavy and dense.. I think once you pick up the speaker, you’ll understand 100% of what it’s all about. It’s hard to explain with a review or words just go get one!

My trucks at work (most of them) do not have radios. A Bluetooth that last all day and overcomes the sound of a loud diesel tractor is very important to me not losing my mind. Bang & Olufsen is pretty well the gold standard in audio as far as I’m concerned. My BMW has it and it’s the best audio of any car I’ve ever had. This Bluetooth speaker follows that tradition. The design is incredibly compact, elegant and well thought out. The ability to hang it with a carabiner was an incredibly important consideration for me. It’s a beautiful piece of engineering. Performance is exceptional when used with the app which allows fine tuning. It’s incredibly loud, fills a space and has rich audio. Do not care about bass as you won’t get meaningful bass out of a small speaker for the most part. Clear audio is the name of the game and this speaker breaks so many rules. It pushes way above its weight class. Not to mention it’s entirely inexpensive for the performance this bad boy delivers. This is the only speaker you should consider if you remotely care about audio quality.

B&O makes posh high end audio gear….gear which showcases the most avant-garde design which would be at home in any modern art museum (MOMA indeed has some of the past B&O iconic products in their exhibits). Normally their gear is priced out of the range of normal-average-hard-working folk ($10000 speakers for example), but with this product, you can get to experience a slice of the life of the upper 0.1%! In all seriousness, this is a regular tiny Bluetooth speaker which has a price at least 5X more than your average tiny Bluetooth speaker. So what do you get for that premium? First, the whole shell is made of metal. It feels cool to the touch. It has hard “Type II anodization” on the aluminum shell which will help resist scratches, and should take the hard knocks while it’s hanging off your backpack using the supplied carabiner clip. The speaker is IPX67 meaning it’s water and dust resistant. You can immerse the whole thing into water for a very short period even. Soundwise, this is a tiny speaker so don’t expect much in terms of volume and thump. It will start to distort if you try to turn it up too high (it's not going to fill a large room in your house). It sounds smooth and the tonality is slightly warm (you hear less of the treble and more of the midrange). Deep bass is nonexistent, but there’s just enough of upper bass tones that you can follow the rhythm of the beat. Measurements on other review sites show that it doesn’t reproduce any content below 100Hz. Basically, it doesn’t reinvent any laws of acoustics and still sounds like a small speaker. But the overall sound quality is clean and the tonality is pleasant. it’s a portable speaker that you can carry with you anywhere, so you can have some music while boating, at the beach, hiking, camping etc. It just works! Battery life is good, at lower and moderate volumes, it easily lasts 10+ hours. Controls are simple: power, volume, play/pause/skip forward backwards. It isn’t necessary to install the app but the app is useful because it gives you the exact battery percentage, turn-off the auto-standby feature if you don’t want it, and has some presets to select a different sound signature or alternatively you can fine tune the strength of the treble/midrange/bass precisely by moving around a slider into four quadrants on the screen. I think it sounds fine with the default “optimized” preset. Also as a bonus, you can plug this into your computer with the USB and used it like a wired USB speaker. You can pair two Bluetooth devices to it, which is the norm nowadays. So is it worth it? By the way, I bought this at a 45% discount (check amazon price history for this product) and even though it’s still not inexpensive, I feel it is good value. Even if it had cost more, I would not have been disappointed. I don’t mind paying more for something that feels like it’s going to last, and with B&O, you get some cutting edge design with great sound engineering. This is a 5 star product, but minus 1 star just because I would have liked to have a microphone so that it acts as speakerphone. Also, because of the bluetooth profile, your device won't show the battery percentage on the phone itself, you have to view the percentage in the app. And the sound is good but it doesn't manage to break any laws of physics (not blaming the speaker but I had hoped that it would really stand out among other small speakers of this size with the bag of tricks that B&O geniuses have up their sleeves. The result is merely very good rather than exceptional). So result is 4 out of 5

I really like this speaker! I had Bose revolve for three years and it died, so I am in search for a portable speaker. My checklist: -Portable -waterproof -sound quality I tried some options, Sonos roam, Marshall Emberton, Bose’s revolve+ II, B&Q’s A1 generation 2, and Explore. I recommend everybody planning to obtain a speaker to try and to actually listen the sound themselves instead of reading tons of biased reviews online. I mainly need this speaker to be in the shower and tennis court. I mainly listen to classical music and popular music. I pick Explore because it has the ability to present the music I love in a very good and pleasant way. Sound quality: Bose’s sound is nice, but it is too emphasized on bass that the music became incorrect. Sonos’ Roam is a close runner-up, but it’s sound is too soft in the bass and too puncture in the middle. Emberton is great for the popular music but for classical music, some wind instruments sound a bit wrong. The A1 from B&Q is surprisingly a bit spread out that the focus went too far. Explore is a small speaker that has the fault of closed up sound that every small speaker has, but it shows the ability to produce a pleasant balance that I love. Functions: The last thing I want is they recording my shower singing in those Alexa/Siri enable smart speaker, so this speaker is best for privacy concerns. I recommend you download the app and play around to find the sound you like! For me it’s a tad between warm and energetic shown in the picture.

The legendary sound quality just isn't there. About 7 years ago, I helped my daughter choose the best of these speakers, and the flatter version of Bang and Olufsen was a winner. If the one is supposed to be an improvement, it isn't. It sounds flat (even after software adjustments) and imprecise. It immediately pimps you to buy one more for the stereo experience. Then it would be $600 for this mediocre product. I am returning.

This is the third different B&O speaker I've bought. They're all exceptional in their own way. This Explore is amazingly clear. Not much bass, but everything else. And great battery life. It's weatherproof. Has the looks you'd expect from B&O. Very portable. Great connectivity. I also have the Beoplay A1 (1st generation. Very important). The A1 does have the bass, but not the battery life. And the connectivity of the A1 is tricky. But I prefer the A1 sound. I've owned several. I really like the B&O app, also. Check out B&O's headphones. They have the best sound of all.

I typically goes to Bose speakers as my first choice but this was on sale and bought it for my husband to take out disc golfing. The sounds is great! Very loud and clear. Base is not like the Bose speakers which was fine b because we weren’t looking for a lot of base. We took the speaker out with us kayaking yesterday and did amazing on the river. I will buy a second one when these go on sale again👍🏼 very well made and looks nice too! Mostly I love the size of the speaker small enough to fit in my purse or clip to the kayak or clip to my husbands disc golf bag. The speaker has very high quality sound! *****

This little thing is loud, clear sound, easy to set up, looks really cool, the battery is fantastic, and when you get the companion app it lets you customise the sound profile. Most of the reviews that say the bass isn’t as good as Bose probably haven’t used the app. I tried it with a fairly large range of genres and everything sounds good. The metal body feels robust and well built. The only thing it struggles with, which is common for a speaker this size.. is the really low “wobble-bass” in certain electronic genres, but the sound doesn’t crack at all even then. If you’ve got the money to spend, this has over 2x the battery life of other speakers at the same price point. It’s also rated at a max output of 60 watts (loud. Very loud), while most others in this range deliver 30 watts. If you really hate your neighbours, get two and stereo pair them together on the app. Two thumbs up!

Piccolo , in poco spazio un suono perfetto !

Beosound Explore to głośnik, który zrobił na mnie wrażenie swoją solidnością i dźwiękiem. Szukałem czegoś, co można zabrać ze sobą w teren – na biwak, wycieczkę czy po prostu do ogrodu – i Explore sprawdza się świetnie. Jest kompaktowy, lekki, a jednocześnie bardzo wytrzymały. Aluminiowa obudowa wygląda elegancko, ale co najważniejsze, głośnik jest odporny na wodę i kurz, więc nie muszę się o niego martwić w trudniejszych warunkach. Jeśli chodzi o dźwięk, to jak na tak małe urządzenie, jest naprawdę mocny i czysty. Basy są wyraźne, a głośność wystarczająca, nawet na otwartej przestrzeni. Bateria trzyma długo – przy normalnym użytkowaniu spokojnie starcza na cały dzień. Jeśli szukasz przenośnego głośnika, który wytrzyma niemal wszystko, Beosound Explore to świetny wybór.

Absolutely gorgeous. Great sound and beautiful to look at. I went for the chestnut colour as it fitted in with our decor better. The provided 50mm USB cable (A to C, not C to C unfortunately) is a matching colour - a nice touch although I’d have preferred a 1m cable. The Beosound App shows the charge and is easy to use. Easily fills our 30ft lounge with great sound, not at all tinny.
