Watching review videos of this board and there is a very notable beep upon each move. Has this since been updated and given the option to be turned off and/or lessened?

does anybody know how you can recognise the 2019 improved set?

I own a DGT e-board for some years now, which I think is perfect for playing on the internet and numerous other chess related activities.
But now, just for fun, I ordered a Kingdom. So I will be able to compare these two machines. I only have to wait for over two months for delivery...

I can't get any games through chess.com with the square off app. Does anyone else have similar issues?

@Celedon: What time limit are you choosing? Try a faster time limit like 15+10. When I try to get a game with 45+45 it can take 5-10 mins sometimes until I get matched.

Thanks. Got it working with a reinstall with the beta version! So much better with this community!
Still love my Grand kingdom set. Had it since it first released. Works PERFECTLY. Cannot wait for the new compact set to come in though

I’m desperate for it but the Neo is on the way...eventually. GK set or is the Neo’s new tech worth waiting for?
Until the Neo is in people’s hands, we cannot really tell if it is much better than the original GKs.
Waiting on the Neo too but have a hard time believing it will take center stage against the GKS. I will likely gift the one i like less to a family member.

Two things I hope the Neo will have over the GKS is speed and size. It also says it has a magnetic sensitive board, so you wont need to press the pieces when you move them, just lift and move like on a DGT
Hmm
Does anyone know if we can challenge individual chess.com friends from the Square Off app?

Yes, you can. From memory you can search for them and add them as friends/favourites in the app and challenge them that way. I no longer have the app installed so cannot guide you exactly, but I remember it was possible

Now there is an update that lets you play with other members on lichess, too!
Thanks. Update isn't working for me yet. Crashes when I try to connect with Lichess players.
What do you guys think about their new roll up board? Uh, no, the pieces don't move by themselves....

I understand they reworked the innards in a later revision to make them a little quieter
Ooh that's great to know, thanks. Do you know when that revision happened?
