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 !

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.

I absolutely adore this speaker. Its sound quality is fantastic, and I highly recommend it. It’s a perfect 10/10!
What I particularly like is the price and quality. It’s also easy to carry around.

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 is my first time buying a Beats Pill and am very impressed. The sound is exceptional. I bought two more after listening to the first one to give as Christmas time gifts. I am truly happy with this purchase!

Good design, very portable, great autonomy battery, sound bass is not so clear as well the middle speaker system sound, the beat app for iPhone doesn't work with the speaker. I hope a soon software update for 2025 that fix this issues to become a 4 star product.

Sounds is clear and does offer the base I was looking for. Easy to charge and very portable.

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.
