    Seamless integration with Apple devices

    You cannot find a Bluetooth speaker that's easier to use with Apple devices. All I had to do was power on the Pill with my iPhone nearby, and it automatically found my device. All I had to do was select "connect" on the pop-up, and everything was done. The speaker has its own settings category within the settings app when it's powered on and connected. It gets its own little icon in the Apple music app when you're playing through it. And it automatically pairs with all my Apple devices. I didn't even need to pair it with my iPad because it was already paired to my Apple account through my iPhone. All I needed to do was select it to connect from the Bluetooth devices list. Beyond the ease of use, the sound is also quite good for a speaker of this size. Yes, I can find songs with bass that it can't quite handle, but no other speaker of this size could. And the bass that it does handle is pretty good. The highs are crystal clear. The quality of the construction is also good. The rubber part of the exterior is soft but not too soft, making it seem ready to handle a few bumps during use. The buttons are hard to notice unless you're looking for them. It's a very sleek design overall. If you're already invested in the Apple ecosystem, this is probably the best portable Bluetooth speaker for you.

    Love this little bluetooth speaker. Pretty simple setup pair it with your bluetooth device and it charges with an included usb c to c cable and wall adapter. It pairs nicely with a pc/laptop, phone or really any other device where you might need bluetooth connection. The battery is really solid I've had it going on and off for i'd say close to 19 hours without needing to charge it but that includes idle time as well. Sound quality is really great on this. I have it at maybe half volume and it feels like it's blowing me away at times already. I can't imagine needing to run this at max volume but maybe if you are using it at a party or something that would be a good use case for it. There are only three buttons very simple volume up, volume down and a power/pairing button. It does have an auto sleep function that is mildly annoying if it doesn't detect any audio playing but I was able to get around this by leaving a silent audio file playing on repeat in the background. Prob a very small use case but would be nice if they would give an option to just turn off the sleep function for those of us that want it. Overall if you are in the market for a bluetooth speaker that packs a punch and really delivers, this is it. At the price point too wow, can't go wrong.

    Portable speaker

    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.

    Small speaker with a big sound.

    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.

    LOL for this speaker, except the power button

    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.

    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!

    Too quiet

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    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.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
