    Best portable speaker in the 2-3 pound range

    10- year Audiophile here:The low end frequencies that the woofer delivers combined with the precise frequencies simultaneously blends into a lossless audio experience for $150. I am buying a second one soon, two of these for $300 would sound significantly better than the beach pillow XL and you can also place them far apart for stereo. Apple never misses, quit contemplating and hit check out.

    These really have excellent sound with full bass from an incredibly small speaker. I use 2 of these with the Beats app and connect them in stereo mode. Sound is excellent. Place them 30 or so feet apart and blast the music... it really is full and surrounds in great stereo sound. Cannot go wrong with Beats Pill.

    Stumbled upon this new pill while at an Apple Store. Accidentally turned it on and was amazed at the sound. Got it at Best Buy for a gift on sale. What a good solid speaker with nice bass ! Sounds better than my Bose revolve for sure. Worth it for sure at the sale price !

    Mediocre Sound Quality with Good Battery Life

    The Beats Pill is an ok portable speaker. It has long battery life and decent enough sound, but its not the premium device I expected from a Beats product. Heres a quick summary of my thoughts Pros Long Battery Life Sturdy Build Quality Cons Convoluted Buttons Sound Quality at High Volumes Terrible Bass at all ranges So for starters, the build quality on the Pill is great. It feels really hefty, has a rubberized material covering the entirety of the device excluding the speaker mesh and has a removable rope strap. Its water resistant so you don't have to worry about it getting wet (friend spilled a monster on it day 1 of having it, so that was tested). Battery life is great. I took it to work with me and used it all day. It seemed to lose about 10% of battery per hour of use, so it makes it through the entire day on a single charge. I didn't measure how long it took to charge, but after a couple hours it was at 100% again and ready to go. Included in the package is a USB-C to USB-C charging cable, but no charger. The sound quality on this is mediocre. I have another portable bluetooth speaker of the same size that sounds notably better with better bass and higher quality sound throughout the range. Both appear to be similar volume though. The app lets you push the volume an additional 25%, but at those volumes the sound quality just degrades further. I don't like simplified buttons on top. The power button has to be held to turn the device on an off, but at the same time if you hold it down it goes into pairing mode. So you have to time it just right to get it to turn off which is rather annoying. They opted for a singular control button on this as well. It servers as the Play/Pause/Skip and Reverse button. You have to memorize how many presses it takes skip/reverse, where I think adding 2 more buttons would have faired better. The app is pretty barebones as well. I was hoping to find a volume mixer so I could turn down the bass (because it sounds really bad), but there was no option. There isn't really much in the way of options within the Beats app for this device besides the overboost on volume. There is a nice feature where you can pair multiple pills together within the app, but its exclusive to just pills whereas other manufacturers let you span sound across any BT speaker. All in all, pretty disappointed in Beats for this. I was expecting a more premium sound and audio mixing capability but none of that can be found here. If this was another brand I wouldn't be surprised but its not.

    Perfect little speaker for on go. Got this for myself to play music around my apartment. Little but mighty. Sound quality is great and will be perfect for beach and park days. The battery does last a while and no connectivity issues either.

    This product is amazing! It sounds fantastic and is incredibly small and portable. The battery life is impressive; it lasts me the entire day. The color options were also great. It works seamlessly with both iOS and Android devices, making it easy to set up. I highly recommend this product as a gift for someone or as a personal speaker with excellent audio quality. By the way, did I mention that it can charge your phone as well? It has that feature too!

    I had the beats pills XL and i absolutely loved that speaker. This just doesn’t compare to it. It’s not super crisp sounding and it’s lacking the bass it could have and should have had! So I was a bit disappointed with this speaker for that reason. But overall it’s a good little portable speaker. I just wish it was as amazing as the XL was.

    This beats pill os everything. It is compact, not bulky making traveling with them a breeze. I love the golden color. These speakers pack a huge punch in the sound department too. Crisp, clear sound with good bass is what you will get.

    I love this pill speaker. It sound nice and loud so I have to remember to keep the volume down. It is bassy but I love it anyways. I have a little music player without a speaker so this is worth it to me.

    I bought this Beat speaker for my daughter as a Christmas present and she loved it. Oh my God, the sound when you hook it up to the TV is incredible. The volume is movie theater vibe. No sound bar
