    A nice option for the money, one of the best deals.

    I bought Beolit ​​17 for 33 Thoroughly approached the choice of portable acoustics. Within a month I compared many models. I previously thought about buying either Beolit ​​12 or 15, because I read about 17 that it is not worth its money, it is no better than its predecessors and does NOT play when charging (which is complete nonsense - everything plays). Unfortunately, I did not compare with the 12th and 15th (I simply could not find them, and I got overwhelmed when I listened to Beolit ​​17).

    Pros
    • 1. Quality materials are used in the assembly. 2. Clean bass (no rattles or farts). 3. Class D amplifier. 4. Power 5. Convenient Beoplay application. 6. Top side made of pleasant plastic (Soft touch type) for the phone and every little thing. 7. Comfortable leather carrying handle. 8. Battery life (they write reviews that they are weak). I tested it personally, through the AUX cable from the computer, set 10 volume divisions out of 32, the classics played. From 100% to full discharge - 31 hours. 8. Overall design.
    Cons
    • When you connect the charging wire to a playing speaker, sometimes (about 1 out of 10 times) the charge simply does not go, or there is no indication, turn off the speaker - an indication appears.

    A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

    Has pros: Sound detail at any volume The most convenient equalizer in the application Top side - divine Design 😍 Charges fast and plays for a long time B&O Cons below: Charging is ambiguous - conflicting sensations when connected. And it is not clear whether it was inserted or not. Can't charge phone

    I was surprised by the quality for this price.

    it would be possible to hide the audio input a little deeper. When it is on the side - dropping the speaker on its side - the plug can break. Has pros: - sound of course class - power is surprisingly impressive - control from the phone is very convenient + shows the level of charge - size, weight, stand on top, handles - all "for people" total: a convenient portable speaker, aesthetically and ergonomically pleasing, with super sound Cons: - I didn’t understand yet whether it’s good that I took…

    Best thing I have ever used, highly recommended!

    I am not a great connoisseur of audio sound, and, in general, I wanted to buy myself a JBL Boombox. But in the store it turned out to listen to JBL, and decided not to take it. The sound is loud, yes, but this is the only advantage. The bass was the most disappointing. They are the same everywhere, I would never have thought that it could be so, that there seems to be a bass, but at the same time it is absolutely indistinct. I already wanted to leave, but they offered to listen to Beolit ​​17…

    Pros
    • The sound for this size and weight is simply amazing. Everything else is secondary and doesn't really matter, in my opinion. Yes, and I completely agree with the positive reviews below, in general, there is nothing to add. The column simply PLAYS, for all the money, as they say.
    Cons
    • Have not found. The price corresponds to the quality, so I do not consider it too high.

    Great product, best quality.

    Hooray! We became happy owners of the coolest column) We thoroughly prepared for the purchase - we monitored different models, different brands, listened to the sound. In the end, the choice fell on her. Expectations are justified by 200%. And the charge is really enough, but 24 hours of work - personally verified. With its pros. Fantastic design, ease of use, 24 hours of operation without wires, you can't say anything about sound quality - it's the best in its segment. Cons: There are no…

    I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

    I have the 15th series, I will compare with it. The sound to my ears is a little better, I don’t know what it depends on, the speakers seem to be the same, maybe the bluetooth transmits the content somehow more informatively. in general, I like it, there was also dinaudio music 3, the sound seemed to be more correct there, but the beolith has some kind of charm of its own, which still calls to return to the bang. A sound that, in principle, will be liked even in a year. Some kind of velvet…

    Pros
    • Relaxed design with Scandinavian minimalist style. The sound is good if the source is of high quality, like from good speakers with an amplifier. It can be charged from a power bank, which is a big plus, unlike previous versions.
    Cons
    • Yusbi si somehow looks fragile, the feeling that if you touch the wire, the socket in the speaker case will shatter to hell. There is no door for the wire at the back like in the 15th version and the power supply is still outside, what does she have in this place now ?!

    I am delighted, the product is really worthy.

    Has some pros The clear sound, parasitic frequencies that this portable speaker system produces from the feet are amazing! And it charges really fast, convenient control, cool app for both Samsung and IPhone! Cons: This is not entirely a drawback, but in short, there is still not enough power for complete immersion in the world of music, you need to connect at least three speakers to each other to feel the full power of Beolit! But you can only do a couple. Perhaps I turned down in this comment

    The product is working, but I will not repeat the purchase for sure.

    I read that it does not charge when it works. I cannot confirm this. It was quite normal when I listened. I've been using portable speakers for a long time. There was a marshal and a harman and a barefoot and a naim (where he stopped). There are headphones b & o n8i (and they play pretty well). I didn't like this column. You can’t turn it on and listen calmly, you constantly need to adjust something, especially if the music is of different genres. Maybe, of course, it is still new and has not…

    Pros
    • Appearance, application.
    Cons
    • I read the good reviews here and I'm surprised. What at least found surprising in the sound ?) The bass is absolutely not accentuated. Basically buzzing. For each song, you need to adjust the equalizer through the application, otherwise it’s not pleasant to listen at all. Yes, mids and highs are not bad for this format. If you look closely at the build quality, then this column is no longer as beautiful and monolithic as in the photo.

    Revainrating 3 out of 5

    Not particularly happy with it, but it's mostly okay.

    The sound is good, but compared to the beolit ​​12 there is a slight mess in the sound, in the old version the sound is more detailed. As before, like version 15, a dead battery (about 1 hour at full volume). As it turned out, the speaker cannot be listened to when charging, it's a bit bummer, although 2.5 hours of charging is not so long. The declared 240 watts is complete nonsense, when compared with aiwa exos-9, which has 200 watts on board, then aiwa will smear it like a puppy. Pleased with

    Pros
    • Good sound, build quality
    Cons
    • Price, battery

    Excellent bluetooth speaker!

    After reading some reviews of the Beolit17's battery life, I was a bit worried; The best purchase criterion, however, was the best sound quality. Having owned the Beolit17 for a few weeks now, I can confirm the following: 1) The sound quality meets my highest expectations with excellent mids, highs and deep bass. I've played music for other "audiophiles" and everyone has commented on how amazing the speaker sounded both indoors and out. volume, it fills more than my whole garden. In truth, I…

    Pros
    • Great value for money
    Cons
    • Other Other

    After carefully reading the numerous reviews on audio websites and customer reviews here at Revain, I decided to purchase the Beloit 17. Had the negative reviews been representative I could have easily returned it to Revain. BATTERY Battery life seems to be a big controversy when reading the Beloit 17 reviews. Bang and Olafson claim UP TO 24 hours of battery life when the speaker is driven at a moderate volume, which they say is a 14 out of 32. This is clearly stated on their website. Assuming…

    Pros
    • Pleasant
    Cons
    • Speed

    Beolit ​​17 Review by a Real Person

    Quick review: The Beolit 17 is comfortable to use and at $499 it's also $100 cheaper than the old Beolit 12 and 15. In Combined with great sound, portability features, a well known brand name, USB-C charging and good app support, I give it 5 stars. Detailed review: Beolit 17 appears to be a good upgrade over previous iterations (12 and 15), both in terms of sound quality and feature set. I didn't have either, but I showed them both in the physical B&O store before it closed in Tysons Corner…

    Pros
    • Decent performance
    Cons
    • Minor issues
