I bought this pill on special and felt I was getting a really good deal but was not impressed at all. Returned it the next day in exchange for a bigger speaker and only paid $20 difference. I was really disappointed with the sound coming out of the pill.

This device is ok. If you are looking for something that outputs crispier sound and nicer quality, I would opt for some Bose instead of this or even the JBL brands.

Apple got their hands on it and ruined a brand that I admired. Doesn't sound good, too pricey, heavy.

I bought the Beats Pill 9 months ago and it crashed. A huge hassle with Apple Support to have it replaced. I am very disappointed in their ability to interact with BestBuy regarding a receipt for the product. The pill is a real downer!!

Great sound for my needs (just as a music speaker for when I work). But the biggest knock is that it has had trouble recently pairing to devices... It worked well at first – for about a week – then Pairing Issues started. 80% of the time it says "Pairing Unsuccessful". Have installed latest software still trying to figure out the problem.

I came in to buy my boyfriend a speaker and I thought, “well beats are great quality headphones and he’s had some before so maybe the speaker would be great!” No. That was not the case. The sound was not what I expected it to be. Yes, it’s nice and pretty expensive, but the sounds is not doing the price and brand justice. I went with a JBL charge 4 instead. Way better.

It plays music when I want it to. It’s usually quiet, especially when I’m not using it.

I love my speaker but when I first got it it made a turning on and off sound. After 2 days it did not make the sound anymore I don’t know why. It was new out of the box. It still works fine but I think I got a faulty one which make me upset.

Lacks bass. Very punchy and handles mids and highs great, just lacks that bass you'd expect from beats.
