Can't charge other devices from the speaker, If you get a call on your smartphone, you won't be able to take it through the speaker
The B&O Play A2 Active may be expensive but its an excellent speaker with almost a day's battery life and a clear, sharp sound that can be cranked up without distortion. The carry handle makes it easy to take around and it's good looks mean you'll want to...

Quality audio, Excellent volume, Limited distortion, Broad, stable diffusion, Easy to use and transport, Meticulous design and finish, USB port for charging an external device, Very robust
Treble overemphasised on one side, Stereo experience impossible, No handsfree function, No NFC, Mains charging, No precise indication of remaining power, Tendency to fall over when stood on its little, nonslip feet

Abstract: There are two other remarkable features to the A2. One is that, due to B&O's True360 technology, the A2 radiates 360-degree sound (which we've seen in a couple of high-end products this year) but in stereo, seemingly audible from any angle. I don't quite ...

Abstract: The jury might still be out on the smartwatch but the Bluetooth speaker has gone from ‘good to have' to being a bare necessity over the past couple of years. We pick ten Bluetooth speakers across price bands from the scores of speakers on offer. So whethe...
