We’re all more than familiar with names such as Apple, LG, Sony, Samsung. But what we would like to do today is show you a lesser known name, but one that deserves to be paid as much attention, if not more attention that the others: Bang & Olufsen. A company that started in 1925 as an apparently uneventful local operation but has become one of the biggest brands in the world. A brand characterized mainly by uniqueness.

Bang and Olufsen, Awesome Design, Fine Touch

By focusing on customer satisfaction more than most companies out there, Bang & Olufsen has become a trusted name. Due to the high quality products this name delivers, if we were to describe it in one word only, it definitely would be – elegance. Anyone that has ever purchased a device from this company would agree that this brand is the most impressive thing out there, at least design wise. And there’s a reason for that, too. Diversity. The company makes wise choices involving their personnel. Thanks to their open mind, they collaborate with people coming from different fields: fashion, art, furniture design, you name it. Their products wouldn’t gain so much attention if they only chose experts from the electronics industry only.

BeoVision TV Line, Slim, Elegant Finish

Let’s take a look at some of their beloved creations. BeoVision 10 is their slimmest flat screen TV and it’s made specially for you to hang it on your wall alongside other artwork. The black glass square and aluminum frame made to create an optical illusion, high quality built in speakers and amplifiers and the possibility of moving the screen at 45° make TV watching a jaw-dropping experience. BeoSound 8 has a refined design guaranteed by the conical shape of the speakers, which has 2 main purposes: to facilitate its placement and to eliminate standing waves.

Their amazing loudspeaker BeoLab 12 goes hand in hand with any home stereo system. No matter how low the volume is, the bass and treble sounds it makes are incredibly precise and deep. The flexible Beo6 remote control has a square glass display with a volume wheel and soft touch keys. Visually, it’s something you’ve never seen before. There are no sharp edges so that you feel more comfortable when using it and it lights up whenever you need it to so that you can see the display.

Alien-Like Home Phones, Sound Systems

Aside from video and audio devices, Bang & Olufsen also provides us with some great looking telephones. The BeoCom 2 is the one that caught our attention the most. This cordless phone delivers a sound that is as real as it gets. Based on the same technology used in the previously mentioned loudspeaker, your conversation will go as smooth as silk. Besides, you can also access more than 400 contacts and customize the display for each and every person you talk to. And that’s not all. They also specialize in remote controls.

But what Bang & Olufsen wants to take things to another level this year. That’s why they have come out with a new portable sound system, the B&O PLAY Beolit 12. You can really feel the attention to detail on this one. If you enjoy music and can’t go anywhere without it, this is the product for you. You can use it in your apartment, on the beach, out in the park, even in the shower. What’s special about this sound system is that is uses Apple’s AirPlay technology. A full charge can go up to 8 hours of playing time. Although the price seems a bit too high (up to $799), we have to admit this product doesn’t even come close to their regular ones.

But there are tons of other products you can purchase from this innovative brand. With devices such as those described before, it’s no wonder this brand is so highly praised and will most certainly be praised for years and years to come.
