    Features and volume out weigh lack of low end

    I personally feel this speaker get to much undeserved bashing in pro reviews. I had a Bose soundlink mini and returned it for 3 specific reasons. 1) No micro USB charging 2) Had deep low end but sounded very muddy at high volume 3)No speakerphone Now sure the Beats Pill lack a bit in the low end and in my opinion it does not need a lot, just a little bit just to get that slightly fuller sound. I don't need the overdone bass like the bose where my heavy metal sounds like a jumbled mess. With that said I feel this speaker still has a great clear sound and it get impressively loud for its size with minimal distortion. It handles all genres of music well and clear. It is very light and small so is very very portable. The best part of this speaker is its sheer amount of features. It can charge on micro USB so I can use the same charger I bring to work for my phone. It's speaker phone has worked great for me so far. It's main button works flawlessly for me to play/pause, skip forward and back tracks. The best feature in my book is its NFC capability. You can tap 2 pills together once so they can play the same music or twice so they play in stereo with one left channel and the other the right. The reason this is my favorite feature is because I have a Pill XL and they work together as well. Though I would never play them in stereo for obvious reasons it is wonderful to pair them together to play in sync. i had a dinner party and kept the Pill in the dining room and the XL in my family room both playing the same music from 1 phone. Neither were very loud and were just providing background music so the obvious size and power difference between the two didn't matter. It was these features and convenience that made the price worth it to me. Even though some cheaper speakers may sound fuller they did not get as loud and could not pair with my Pill XL(Best $300 Bluetooth speaker by far by the way). This speaker comes packaged well and includes a decent case to protect it from scuffs on the go. It fels solid and built well. If it just had a little(and I mean little) more low end it would be the perfect small bluetooth speaker. A good EQ on the phone can help fill the sound a bit and makes me more than happy with my decision to purchase this over its competitors.

    Battery life is great. One of the cleanest sound Bluetooth speakers I've heard. But I would choose the JBL flip 2 over this one due to lack of bass, loudness, and price. 4 stars if it had more bass, 5 stars if it was cheaper since I can find JBL flip 2's for $50-60.

    Expensive for quality. Had it only several months when it stopped working. Tried everything to repair. Not worth the price.

    I bought this for when I shower. Most of the time, it will just stop, but the iPhone will still be playing when I look. Bought a Bose, very happy with that:)

    My personal opinion is the beats pill doesn't live up to the hype. The sound is muddy and isn't much louder than my phone. I had purchased an Insignia wireless speaker for a 1/5 of the price of the beats and I find it comparable.

    I bought this because the store didn't have the Bose. The unit wouldn't charge so I returned it and got the Bose which is far and away better.

    Excellent compact speaker and great for any use! I listened to many products in store and this was by far the best in its price range. It was a no-brainer to buy the Beats Pill. And the dark blue one is sleek, classy, and just all around lovable. The sleeve it comes with is great to keep the speaker in too. Keeps it very clean! It was an excellent purchase!

    Got my pill for my birthday and I use it everyday. It is easy to turn on and off... the sound is pretty loud and clear for such a small speaker. I would recommend this to anyone. I can take it with my in my purse, great for pairing with my cell always listening to my favorite music.

    Can only be used at very low volume. Very staticky, and muffled sound. I know they are small speakers but for the price quality is very poor.
