Bang & Olufsen introduces Beoplay EX, its most versatile true wireless ANC earphones to date

Bang & Olufsen today announced the launch of Beoplay EX, the latest addition to its wearable audio portfolio. With astounding sound, adaptive ANC and a fully waterproof design, Beoplay EX is the most versatile true wireless earphone model from Bang & Olufsen to date. Built to simplify personal sound, Beoplay EX offers an unparalleled combination of performance and style to create the perfect personal sound companion for amplifying all varieties of daily audio experiences.

“Beoplay EX embodies the seamless blend of comfort, luxury and quality sound that threads the entirety of our legendary audio portfolio together. From our award-winning Beoplay H95 over-ear ANC headphones to Beoplay Portal, our premiere entry to the gaming market, Beoplay EX is the natural next step in our superior sound offering”, says Bang & Olufsen Dorte Vestergaard, Bang & Olufsen’s Category Director.

Compact design. Built for comfort.

Beoplay EX differs most notably from previous Bang & Olufsen earphones in the shape of its design. Designed by Thomas Bentzen, the stem-based shape has been adopted and transformed into a finished offering that is equal parts stylish and comfortable. The housing of the earphone placed inside the ear, is smaller than ever before, and ensures a comfortable and stable fit that can be worn for hours without readjustment.

The practicality of this new shape is matched with the signature Bang & Olufsen aesthetic, perfected over 96 years of craftmanship and design innovation. From the mirror-like glass interface which catches the light at the perfect moment, to the surrounding brushed aluminum ring, Beoplay EX creates a statement for the wearer whether they opt for the slick Black Anthracite, opulent Gold Tone or striking Anthracite Oxygen finish. Beoplay EX comes complete with a matching brushed aluminum charging case, which is conveniently pocket-sized, making it the perfect travel companion.

Soul-stirring sound. All day long.

Whether Beoplay EX is used in the office, on the move, in the gym or at home, it has been designed by Bang & Olufsen with the aim to provide the best sound for any setting. Tuned by the brand’s acoustic engineers with decades of experience, Beoplay EX brings the superior sound that listeners expect from Bang & Olufsen’s legacy of portable and home audio products to the comparatively-miniature package of an in-ear device. Beoplay EX encompasses Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation technology, allowing the wearer to appreciate the depth, detail and clarity of sound that the artist intended, for a truly immersive audio experience.

Bang & Olufsen’s new shape in earphone design creates space for a 9.2 mm speaker driver in Beoplay EX, the biggest ever used for a true-wireless device by the brand. This results in a significant upgrade in the power of each audio moment, without compromising on comfort. Listening can last all day, as Beoplay EX has up to 20 hours of total playtime including charging in the case, and 6 hours of playtime with ANC turned on.

This combination of unrivalled sound quality and impressive ANC is matched with an upgrade in call quality, so that Beoplay EX can be used for taking meetings or personal calls at any moment. Each earphone has three microphones, beamforming technology and own voice functionality built in, to ensure a seamless call experience.

Simple connectivity. Versatile.

With the latest in Bluetooth 5.2 technology and background noise reduction, Beoplay EX makes it easy to go wireless and connect with the office, friends and family in any location. With Multipoint connectivity, the earphones can also connect to two devices at the same time, allowing wearers to listen to music from one and make calls with the other. Beoplay EX is not only leading the way in connectivity, but the new model is also sweat and IP57-certified dust resistant and waterproof, making it an extremely durable personal sound solution.

Pricing & availability

The Beoplay EX (399 USD / 399 EUR / 349 GBP / 2998 CNY) will be available in Anthracite Oxygen from May 5th 2022, Gold Tone from May 27th 2022 and Black Anthracite from June 2022.

Beoplay EX is available globally at Bang & Olufsen, online, and in select retailers.

GÉNESIS HONRADAS EN EL GOOD DESIGN AWARD 2021

SEÚL, COREA, 2022 — Genesis anunció el martes que cuatro de sus creaciones obtuvieron reconocimiento en los Good Design Awards 2021, una prueba más del destacado liderazgo de la marca en la escena mundial del diseño. El GV70, el X Concept, el Genesis EV Home Charger y el Genesis Wireless EV Charging System se llevaron todos los honores en la categoría de transporte.

Los Good Design Awards, presentados anualmente por el Chicago Athenaeum Museum of Architecture and Design y Metropolitan Arts Press, han reconocido la competitividad del diseño de la marca por séptimo año consecutivo. Genesis también ganó premios Good Design en 2015 por el G90, en 2016 por Vision G Concept, en 2017 por G80 Sport y GV80 Concept, en 2018 por G70 y Essentia Concept, y en 2019 por G90 y Mint Concept. En 2020, los elogios fueron para el G80, el GV80 y el tema Copper Design utilizado en el sistema de información y entretenimiento Genesis.

El GV70 es un SUV inspirado en la filosofía de diseño de Génesis de “Elegancia atlética”. La línea parabólica que comienza en la parte superior de los faros cuádruples y corre hábilmente a lo largo del costado del SUV crea un contraste dramático con los guardabarros traseros musculosos. La elegante línea del techo estilo coupé y la línea cromada que se inclina hacia el pilar C ayudan a darle al vehículo una apariencia distintiva que es a la vez deportiva y poderosa.

En la parte trasera, los faros cuádruples súper delgados forman las dos líneas por las que la marca es conocida. Con todos sus elementos funcionales integrados en el parachoques, el SUV logra un aspecto limpio y ordenado. La parte trasera también presenta detalles sutiles, como un patrón G-Matrix en el parachoques.

El interior del GV70 exhibe una filosofía de diseño llamada “la belleza del espacio en blanco”, que busca maximizar la comodidad y conveniencia de los pasajeros.

El Genesis X Concept es una versión eléctrica del concept car Gran Turismo. Utiliza el elemento de diseño central de Genesis, las dos líneas, para presentar una visión del futuro del diseño de vehículos eléctricos. El diseño Two Lines se puede ver en todo el interior y el exterior del automóvil, incluso en el puerto de carga eléctrica.

El frente del Genesis X Concept es bajo y ancho. Armoniza con la Crest Grille, los faros Two-Line y los parachoques de doble capa. Las lámparas cuádruples de dos líneas ejemplifican lo mejor del diseño y la tecnología líderes de la marca.

El lateral sigue el diseño tradicional del modelo Gran Turismo con un cofre largo y una parte trasera corta, y las luces de dos líneas que conducen a los faros y las luces traseras son impresionantes. La Línea Parabólica que recorre el lateral crea una impresión dinámica y elegante con el voluminoso guardabarros. La cuña ovalada en la parte trasera del automóvil emana una elegante sencillez.

El interior presenta un diseño inspirado en la cabina, lo que significa que los sistemas operativos y las pantallas rodean al conductor. La belleza del espacio en blanco también es evidente aquí.

El Genesis X Concept también demuestra lujo sostenible al incorporar restos de cuero reciclado del proceso de producción del vehículo en los cinturones de seguridad, el volante y las cubiertas de las bolsas de aire.

“Nos sentimos muy honrados de ser reconocidos por los Good Design Awards por estos importantes vehículos e innovaciones”, dijo SangYup Lee, vicepresidente ejecutivo y director del Genesis Global Design Center. “Este honor habla del excelente trabajo de nuestro equipo de diseño de ensueño, que puso su pasión y su corazón en este proyecto, y también de nuestros ingenieros del centro de I+D. Hicieron este logro juntos. También refleja la competitividad de la identidad de diseño de Genesis Two Lines en el mercado global”.

Mientras tanto, el sistema de carga inalámbrico para vehículos eléctricos Genesis y el cargador doméstico para vehículos eléctricos Genesis fueron reconocidos por su diseño centrado en el ser humano. El sistema de carga Genesis Wireless EV ofrece una experiencia perfecta con una aplicación que brinda información en tiempo real sobre el estado de carga y más. El cargador doméstico Genesis EV refleja el aspecto característico de la marca y ofrece una comodidad sin igual. Al agregar un carrete para que el cable se pueda rebobinar sin problemas, Genesis ha hecho que el dispositivo sea más seguro que otros en el mercado. Las características de diseño funcional, como la capota, el soporte ajustable para adaptarse a conductores de diferentes alturas y la autenticación RFID, hacen que se destaque aún más.

Desde su creación en 1950, los Good Design Awards han reconocido la excelencia en el diseño en todo el mundo. Su objetivo es crear conciencia sobre el diseño contemporáneo, para honrar a los innovadores en diseño y fabricación, así como a sus productos.
