A View From the Porch
By MARIO NAVES
|The best-looking, best-feeling portable speaker on the market, so long as you prioritize design over value-for-money.

Bang & Olufsen is not a budget-friendly tech company. The company is not a value-for-money enterprise. Instead, Bang & Olufsen offers a level of premium Scandinavian design that can’t be found elsewhere in consumer electronics. I’ve loved many of its products. These include its larger portable speaker, the Beosound A5, which starts at $1,099; its high-end headphones, the Beoplay H100, which retail at $1,549; and my shopping spree after a lottery win would involve buying its collaboration with Saint Laurent on a turntable.
