The sound and battery life is great and works well with my apple devices

Small unit with a big sound. This portable speaker is awesome. The manufacturer states the battery can las for up to 24 hrs after one charge. In the box come the speaker, a charging cable and lanyard. The speaker itself is about 2 lbs. It's makes it easy to carry around. The lanyard helps for ease of carriying around. The speaker unit is not waterproof but waster resistant. This speaker has the ability to charge your connected device via USB cable. There's an app that helps you connect to the unit. The sound is crisp and incredibly loud. I've used this speaker to watch a movie on my phone to enhance the sound. It changed the experience of the movie. Music coming from the speaker is loud enough to fill any room. This would be a great speaker for a picnic in the park or near the pool. Overall this speaker seems durable and made with quality materials. I would recommend this speaker for anyone in the market looking for a quality speaker at an affordable price. This would make a great gift for Christmas.

Beats Pill Portable Speaker While earbuds are nice, only you can hear the music you’re listening to, since the earbuds are in your ears. So, when you want to share your music with others, this Beats Pill portable speaker can be a great choice. Connecting this device via Bluetooth is as easy as it gets. Since it’s well-constructed, it’s a tad on the heavy side, which means you probably wouldn’t want to carry this along on your daily walk (that’s where your earbuds really work great). However, it’s nice that it has a carrying strap and it’s still light enough to move around inside and outside your home. That means you have the flexibility to decide where you want to hear your music now, and then change the speaker’s location whenever you want. And since it’s battery operated, there are no electrical plugs to worry about when you want to move it. Besides playing your music, this device can also be used as a portable charging device. It can charge your phone and other USB-C devices using the included cable. Simply insert one end of the cable into the USB slot on the speaker and the other end to the device you want to charge, and it starts charging the connected device. That’s a nice touch. The Beats Pill has a water- and dust-resistant IP67 rating which means that you don’t have to be afraid to take it outside, since a little bit of rain isn’t going to ruin it. And sharing your music with others could make you the life of the party at the pool or other outdoor gathering! My only recommendation for improving the speaker would be to make the On/Off switch and the Volume Up and Volume Down controls easier to locate and identify. At present, they’re black and are located on the black rubber of the speaker, so they’re not easy to find. Making them white would be a huge improvement. Because this is an Apple product, AppleCare+ battery and accidental damage coverage is available. Decent sound, a solid build with up to 24-hour battery life and backed by Apple means that this is a product that won’t disappoint if you’re comfortable with the price.

I have lots of love (LOL) for this powerful little speaker except for the power button, but I'll get to that later. First things first - the speaker exudes quality the minute you pull it out of the box. It has a weight and heft to it that is oddly satisfying. I don't know all the technical aspects of a speaker (like tweeter vs woofer, etc) that would give it this feeling, but I like it. You really feel like you're getting your money's worth this thing. The attached lanyard is actually a nice feature with which to carry the speaker around without fear of dropping it (though I think that fear would be unfounded as the rubber surface provides adequate grip vs the metal mesh portion of the speaker). The stuff I like the most about the Pill is the integration with iOS (the cool card slide up when you first pair it) as well as all the options available in the Settings app without having to install a separate app (though there is a separate app of course if you want it). The other thing I really like is lossless audio over USB-C. I didn't think I would be able to tell the difference but when listening to lossless tracks via Apple Music, there was a discernible change in audio quality vs just streaming over Bluetooth. So now the power button. Turning the speaker on is relatively easy enough, but turning it off is not. You have to hold the power button down but time it correctly so that you let go in time to turn it off but not too late which would then put the speaker in pairing mode. Just a bad engineering design decision in my opinion unless someone can tell me why Beats felt like they had to design it that way.

It was a gift for my sister and she loves it! Her favorite Christmas gift :)

The Beats Pill has great bass, great sound, and water resistance. Great for the bathroom while in the shower.

A lot better than the original pill. Haven’t con dyed two yet that will be next. But definitely recommend for sure.

Very loudspeaker it’s very nice. 24 hour charge time really makes it nice.

Awesome beats product! Bass is amazing and the red color is amazing……Also first review on it!! Lol

One of the best speakers for this price .. just amazing

I really like this little pill! The sound is crisp and loud and I can use it with my ipod, ipad, computer and phone!

They are very very loud! I have to say they are really pushing these speakers! Has very impressive deep bass and balanced sound. The battery is on a different level! I haven’t charged it in a few days and still at 60%! And for the price? I have to say Apple hit a home run with these!

This is my second one i like the sound quality and i like the bass and i like how easy it is to pair up to your phone

This is my first Beats and may be the last. I was hoping that this would be better than my JBL Flip 6 due to the "Beats" brand, but I was dead wrong. There's no way to turn up the bass level even through the app. This is so disappointing coming from a software company (Apple). The only good thing about this speaker is the supposed 24-hour play time (which is probably going to be half if you actually use it for that long).

Quick and easy experience, purchasing on-line and picking up at the store. Was a hit with the Giftee and everyone else at Christmas! Easy to set up and the sound is immense!

Love the quality of the speaker! Perfect for use for traveling!

When I’m alone I like to listen a song of peace and joy . And my Beat pill became a best friend by giving me a best sound. Vive Beat pill.

Now obviously this depends on where you use this speaker and for me I work in a big open mechanic shop so it’s alot of open space. At full volume this speaker just doesnt cut it. Maybe this will be a great product for you if you’re using this in your house or a small office but outside I’m not so sure you’ll be satisfied with the volume. Now I had a Bose soundlink flex gen 2 thinking the battery life was really short but after exchanging it for a beats pill I can definitely say this speaker doesnt last long at all. Now I don’t think it’s horrible but for this price you can the Sony xg300 for the same retail price as a pill.

I had really high hopes for this speaker, I was really excited to be able to fall in love with the audio quality because it’s Apple its supposed to be great right? Not so much. Its a very MEDIOCRE speaker nothing to be blown away by at all. What I do like about it, is how iconic it is. The classic red is beautiful and they did a great job cosmetically. But after nearly a decade they should’ve OVER delivered on the sound quality. Instead they UNDER delivered. Im trying really hard to like it so I dont have to return it cause it looks great, and an apple ecosystem portable speaker is invaluable. Perhaps my expectations were set to high :/. If staying within the apple ecosystem is what you want, then get it. If not, get a bose, sony, or even a JBL.

Easy to pair with phone and laptop. Sound quality is very good for its size.
