Bang & Olufsen adds a second Bluetooth speaker to the more affordable B&O Play line-- the Beoplay P6, a portable number featuring 360-degree audio and a built-in microphone for use with voice assistants.

The company does not specificy which assistants the P6 supports, meaning it probably depends on what is running on the smartphone it is connected to. Meanwhile the 360-degree audio (or "True360," as B&O calls it) comes from stereo speakers facing opposite directions, filling the area with sound.

The P6 also features an aluminium exterior promising dust and splash resistance, a leather carry strap and a battery powering up to 16 hours of music playback on a single charge. Charging the battery comes via USB-C, and on power, Bluetooth pairing and volume control, together with a multi-function "OneTouch" button handling things like summoning smart assistants, accepting phone calls or toggling ToneTouch presents on the Beoplay companion app.

The Beoplay P6 should be shipping now in two colour options, black or silver.
