How does the new user interface work?

We are introducing a new user interface to all products with local control to align the user experience between all products in our Connected Audio portfolio. Please see which products are affected in the list below.

 

As an example, here is how the new user interface affects the one-touch button on Beosound 1. Beosound 1 has a one-touch button, indicated by a small circle on the top of the local user interface. Other products, such as Beoplay M5 or Beoplay A9, have the one-touch button implemented with a press on the top middle of the product, but the principle shown in this table remains the same on these products.

As an example, here is how the new user interface affects Beosound 1. Beosound 1 has a one-touch button, indicated by a small circle on the top. For other products, such as Beoplay M5 or Beoplay A9, you press on the top centre of the product, but the principle shown in this table remains the same on these products.
