The portable speaker is remixed to boast the signature Z-blue color palette with a logo detailed on top in tonal contrast. It was noted by Andra Gavrilesu, the head of brand collaborations at Bang & Olufsen that the intention behind the partnership is a "statement in both look and sound." That is further elevated by the optional circular travel bag made with a plush look and feel to carry the audio speaker. The limited edition is dubbed 'The Blueism' and the pouch is made from leather and filled with cotton inside. There is also a deep button tuft right in the middle.
