“Beo Grace is more than a new product, it is a symbol of the century ahead. Inspired by the elegance of fine jewellery and crafted from our signature aluminium, it distils everything Bang & Olufsen has stood for since 1925: uncompromising sound, enduring craftsmanship, and timeless beauty. With Beo Grace we are bringing our heritage of acoustic ingenuity into a form you can wear – a piece of design sculpture that ushers in a new era of wearable sound,” says Bang & Olufsen CEO Kristian Teär.
Craft Meets Sculpture
Beo Grace is a study in wearable sculpture, inspired by the elegance of fine jewellery. Its aluminium stems reimagine Bang & Olufsen’s iconic A8 earphones, carrying their distinctive metal stem design into the wireless era through innovation in miniaturisation.
Each earpiece is hewn from polished aluminium and rests in a pearl-blasted aluminium case with a seamless silhouette that opens effortlessly in the hand. Cool to the touch, refined in finish, and shaped to slip easily into a pocket, Beo Grace carries the timelessness of precious metals into everyday life. Made in Natural Aluminium, the design draws inspiration from silver, where acoustic precision becomes jewellery for the ear. The charging case offers stylish portability and slips easily into a pocket when travelling. The seamless design features a hidden charging window and hinge, enabling effortless opening.
Beo Grace provides optimal performance for extended periods of wear without compromising on comfort. The ear tip has been updated with an oval profile to improve fit and sealing. The earpieces are dust and waterproof for life on the go with an IP57 rating. Beo Grace offers up to 4.5 hours of playtime with ANC, and up to 17 hours including the charging case. Hidden design details such as the metal speaker grill supports Bang & Olufsen’s ethos of designing outside in and inside out with an eye for detail. The ear tips feature an integrated nylon mesh that safeguards the driver from dust and debris, ensuring long-lasting performance.
Bang & Olufsen has crafted a soft, premium leather pouch offered as an optional accessory that wraps seamlessly around Beo Grace’s aluminium charging case. Available in Infinite Black, Cranberry Red, and Seashell Grey, it features a discreet USB charging opening, crafted with an elegant shoulder strap and refined clasp, making it easy to wear and style seamlessly, wherever your music takes you.
Engineered for Outstanding Sound
Beo Grace has been designed around a new acoustic architecture, tuned and perfected by Bang & Olufsen’s expert tonmeisters to deliver sound with remarkable fidelity. Inspired by the acoustic principles behind Bang & Olufsen’s Beoplay H100 headphones, Beo Grace delivers unrivalled high-quality sound and advanced digital noise cancellation. The earpieces feature a 12 mm titanium driver in an extremely small form factor, carefully placed behind precision-milled aluminium grills. Beo Grace features Spatial Audio, delivering a more natural listening experience for stereo content and optimised for Dolby Atmos.
With Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation, Beo Grace ushers in a new era of quiet for Bang & Olufsen earphones. It offers four times more effective ANC performance than the brand’s previous best earbud – all without hiss and unnatural pressure in your ear, offering a sense of effortless calm. Bang & Olufsen’s new EarSense technology automatically adapts sound and ANC performance in real time by detecting ambient noise while measuring the unique acoustic signature of your ear, tailoring sound and silence for personalised escape. The earpieces also harness advanced wind reduction technology to soften the impact of the environment around you. Paired with a three-microphone array in each earpiece, every call cuts through with pristine clarity, ensuring crystal-clear voice pickup and quality, even in busy environments.
Whether you’re listening to music, taking calls, or switching between awareness and focus with TrueTransparencyTM, Beo Grace delivers a natural experience with clarity, balance, and control wherever you go, redefining Bang & Olufsen’s earphone category.
Intuitive by Design
Beo Grace is Bang & Olufsen’s most intelligent earpiece to date, pushing the boundaries of miniaturisation and technology integration. The earpieces have been designed to integrate seamlessly into your life with an array of new features and innovations:
- Spatial Audio that feels natural: Beo Grace can virtualise any stereo mix and is optimised for Dolby Atmos, delivering a more natural listening experience, as if you were listening over loudspeakers.
- From noise to nuance: Six studio-grade microphones power Bang & Olufsen’s most advanced Adaptive Active Noise Cancellation to date, adjusting in real time to changes in fit and your surroundings. It fine-tunes performance for the strongest possible noise blocking, so nothing comes between you and your music.
- Complete Transparency: The new TrueTransparencyTM builds on Beoplay H100. Using our latest high-precision microphones, it recreates your surroundings with striking realism, free from hiss or distortion. The world sounds exactly as it should – so natural, you might forget you’re wearing earpieces at all.
- Tactile controls: Precision force sensing inside a solid aluminium tube paired with real-time sound feedback that feels like a mechanical click. Press to play or pause, skip forward or back, and switch between Active Noise Cancellation and Transparency. Every press is crisp, deliberate, and satisfying. More secure and tactile than touch with the robustness to perform wherever you are.
- NearTap: Adjust the volume with simple taps in front of your ear. The right-side increases, the left side decreases. None of the frustration of finicky touch controls.
- Rapid charging, long-lasting performance: Five minutes of charging delivers up to 2.5 hours of playback. When fully charged, Beo Grace earpieces offer up to 4.5 hours of listening time and up to 17 hours with ANC, including the charging case.
- Evolving software platform: Beo Grace features Bang & Olufsen’s new Amadeus PlatformTM for wearables. This software platform is upgradable by design so that Beo Grace will continue to evolve with you through software updates offering improved performance and experiences.
- Battery health technology: Bang & Olufsen has partnered with Breathe, a leader in battery intelligence to introduce innovative technology in Beo Grace. This strategic partnership aims to remove the constraints of battery service-life through advanced power handling innovation. At the heart of Beo Grace is a custom-designed battery management system that has surpassed 2,000 charge cycles in internal testing, setting a new benchmark in audio. Compared with the five hundred cycles that are standard in most consumer electronics, this demonstrates what’s possible when software and design work together to extend battery life.
