Honestly I don’t know why people are complaining about sound quality and how loud the speaker actually is. I have it at the second lowest volume preset and if I go any louder it’ll start being too loud for my current location. If you have the money and like it buy it. If you want to buy it for an aesthetic of having Apple devices then do it. It’s worth the money. JBL, Sony and Bose are good as well, out of those 3 only Sony really compares to the beats in my opinion. But it if you want it.

I have been waiting and waiting to finally pick up a beats pill + ! When I hooked it up, and it was so easy to pair once you download the beats app! ( be sure you do that) and you can control everything from your phone! And you can even add another pill as left and right speakers!! So I did! I bought a used one off a guy, like new. Anyway I connected them through the app, and its like a mini booming system in my room! Nice and loud and plenty of bass! And they look really cool on my work desk!

First time I heard its sound at one of my friend's house and since then i decided to buy it. By my good luck being an elite plus member i get few discount offers from best buy and i am able to buy it. it is little expensive but after applying my discount it hardly cost me that much. Now me and my wife both use it daily. I ordered it online and when it came to me, it was little damaged, i visit my nearest best buy and best buy provide me one of the best service by simply replacing it with a new one whereas the new one was a little costlier than the one i ordered through online but they did without costing any extra dollar. So for me, both are best, my beat pill+ and the service of best buy.

A tiny bit bulkier and hevier than the first generation beats pill. Although, there is a big difference in sound, there's more color selection from the first generation. The new Pill+ has a better sounding base and further range in volume. Overall, I like the new Beats Pill+. Happy with my purchase for sure!

Sound is great. There's no other product quite like it. Another feature that needs to be highlighted is this device 2nds as a smartphone battery backup because I'd USB energy output capability. Trendy & technology rich all in a pill-size package. Can't wait till price drops more so I can gift more to family.

QuestionThis items states that it includes a soft carrying case. When I opened the box there was no soft carrying case. Is there a reason?
Asked 5 years ago by De.
- Answer There is no case. Reread the contents included and the information. There is a rubber (silicon) she’ll around the speaker. There is no case that comes with the speaker.

QuestionDoes anyone use two of these as a stereo pair? If so, do they work well and have decent separation? Thanks.
Asked 5 years ago by Lanark.
- Answer I do use them as stereo speakers. The sound is amazing and I have them mounted on tripods. I use them at home, at parties, while washing my car. Family and friends can not believe the sound out of these speakers. I have the Revolve plus.

QuestionIs it loud enough to be in a park gathering?
Asked 5 years ago by Dylon.
- Answer Yes but you got to remember you’re not dealing with a stereo system. You’re dealing with a handheld sized speaker so if you’re trying to have your music heard 2 blocks away like a concert hall then this isn’t the speaker for you. The sleek silicon outter shell and the 4 speakers in the 8 inch in length speaker will blow you away otherwise!
