Oh, and if you were a fan of the A1’s leather strap and speakerphone capabilities, those return here as well. More than that, the P2 does away with all physical buttons; everything is controlled via the Beoplay App.
If you’d rather not pull your phone out to skip or pause a song every time, the P2’s aluminum shell responds to touch as well. “With just a double tap or shake, you can play, pause and skip tracks, launch your favorite personal assistant [and] change sound profiles,” the provided announcement says. Cool.
The smaller size comes at a smaller price, too. The P2 is available today and will set you back $169 (£149) versus the A1’s $249.
