We love this speaker. It connects quickly to our phones and the sound is crystal clear. It really fills the room. The bass is good considering how small the speaker is. I also like the looks of it and how long the battery lasts.

I was expecting this “Beats Pill – Portable Bluetooth Speaker- Up to 24H Battery Life, Water Resistant, Bluetooth, Apple & Android Compatible, Seriously Loud Sound for Home, Outdoor and Travel- Champagne Gold” to be similar or the same size of my beloved (not working anymore) original Beats Pill 2.0; but to my disappointment, this new Beats Pill “24” (released in 2024 or up to 24hrs of battery life) is much larger than the original one. Since the design is so similar, from the pictures, it misled me to expect that. This new one is actually 24oz vs the original at only 10oz; and this new one has a diameter of 2.8in vs the original one is only approximately 1.8in. So the length is 1in longer, the diameter is 1in larger, the whole thing is much beefier, almost 2.5 times heavier. I want this to be my “bring everywhere”, “bring it with me on all my travels” speaker (like my original one), but now I have my doubts about it.
I am *still* giving it a 5-star though. To not check and confirm the size, it is my own fault. And except that, I am overly happy with this speaker. The design is great, and the sound is awesome. The sound stage is huge, and this speaker is *loud*. And even at higher volume, the sound is clean and not distorted. The acoustic details are nice, the highs are crisp, and the basses are strong and solid. The best of all, is its price, the MSRP is $149, yet I acquired it on sale at $99!
This new Beats Pill is a direct competitor to Bose Soundlink Flex, JBL Charge 5, Sono Move etc.. Yet this new Pill is as good, if not better than all these competitors, and is cheaper than all of them!
Thank you for reading this review, I hope that this review & the pictures are helpful to you in support of your purchase decision.

The Beats Pill delivers impressive sound quality for its size. The bass is rich and punchy, providing a depth of sound that you wouldn’t expect from a portable speaker this small. The mids and highs are clear and crisp, making it great for a variety of music genres, from hip-hop to rock to podcasts. While it doesn’t deliver the deep rumbling bass of larger speakers, it still offers a well-balanced sound profile that’s perfect for personal use or small gatherings.
It works great on a bike too because its so small and lightweight. Its easy to carry around, whether you’re tossing it in your bag or using the included strap to hang it from your backpack. Despite its small size, it packs a punch when it comes to sound, making it perfect for on-the-go listening.

It is great for a bedroom or even annofficw space as it has a very balanced esthetic effect and gives yiu an ambiance as of you are at a concert. I love it!! It’s the second one that I’ve owned. I’ll buy another when this one wears out. I got it on sale. But it is definitely worth the $150 price tag that comes on it at retail stores. So glad that Amazon has it for a whole lot less than the stores!! Thank you Amazon!! You are amazing!! Waterproof. Super long battery life. Almost indestructible. MUAH 😘💋Belisimo!! LOVE IT

Simple to use, very simple to pair within the Apple ecosystem, supporting iCloud pairing and simple initial pair. Can easily get battery information directly from device. AirPlay integration would have been welcome.
Controls are simple, although take some practice to get used to. Power button controls both power and pairing. I do wish the Pill could be turned on with one touch of power button. I’ve yet to test the microphone/speaker function, but that’s a nice enough addition.
I find the sound great, but I am no audiophile. I intend to use this speaker for what portable speakers are best designed for- travel, beach, patio, etc. It sounds excellent, even at moderate volume. The dual pairing function looks awesome, although not within my use case.
Design is sleek and feels solid- but light enough for great portability. The soft touch silicone feels great, although I can foresee being a bit of a dirt magnet, at least on the champagne gold model. The lanyard is a welcome addition, but I do wish it was adjustable- unsure what the point of adding a lanyard is if it cannot be tightened/loosened. USB-C is a great addition, as is fast fuel.
Battery life is rated at 24H. Based on early usage, I would believe this to be reasonably accurate. Unit drained about 10% listening to podcasts at ~50% volume.
Overall positive first impression. Definitely not a cheap speaker, but you are buying this for the ecosystem integration, good sound, and excellent battery life. Price is pretty on par with similar quality speakers. Beats products are frequently discounted, so maybe wait for a sale.

One of the best purchases I’ve ever made. Battery life is very long. Volume gets loud and doesn’t distort. Fairly impressive sound quality. Far Bluetooth range. Easy to use with little issues and the wrist strap is a good added bonus for carrying. Id rather use this as my main Bluetooth speaker compared to a sound bar at the same price.

I bought this used in “acceptable” condition, with no description as to actual condition. The previous two “acceptable” ones came with somewhat minor dents, but no original packaging, charge cord, or instructions. One of them smelled like something like Febreeze had been sprayed or rubbed on it. This one, the cheapest I have seen in this color, has no discernible scratches or dents and looks new, , arrived in the original, but extremely taped box, and had cord, instructions, and stickers. Jackpot! It should have been classified as “very good” or even, “like new.” It sounds great, with movie theater very present bass sound. A little weak in the midrange when quiet or loud, but may be fixable in firmware, as may connectivity issues. As has been noted in other user reviews, it gets disconnected rather frequently for no discernible reason, is hard to maintain in paired modes for this reason, and makes a rather loud noise when turning on and off. One reviewing site reviewer downgraded it for having to hold the on /off button too long to turn it on and off. 2 or 3 seconds is too long? This is actually a great design feature that keeps it from accidentally turning off or on while in a bag or backpack while taking camping or to the beach. To prevent dents in transit I suggest keeping the well-designed protective box. Though I suspect the dented speakers were dropped. None of the carrying cases designed for this version of the Beats Pill, that I have ordered, had any real padding. If the case is hard enough this may not matter, but one was easily mushable. I’m thinking of just using the box. The only case I’ve found with real padding, and a nicely hard shell, is the co2CREA Hard Travel Case Replacement for JBL Flip 6 FLIP 5 Waterproof Portable Bluetooth Speaker Case. (This can be found cheaply in Amazon Resale in like -new condition.). The Pill fits snugly in this, though it mushes down the divider, but still leaves room for the charging cable and a plug in charger.
The original Pill colors: red, gold, and black, come with a black plastic charging cord. The Kim Kardashian Pills come with cords that match the Pill color, and cross-hatched fiber covering, which may be better quality than the black cords? They are stiffer!
The main feature that I went with the Pill for is the “Lossless listening.” The ability to plug in the Pill directly to your device without having to use bluetooth. We have so much radiation already with wi-fi, phone, radio, and tv signals broadcasted all around us, I prefer not to have to add bluetooth to the mix. Plus the sound quality is better. Speakers that can use wi-fi also get better sound quality than bluetooth because of better bandwith.
Though the Pill as yet has no online equalizer as other better quality speakers do, I find it does a great job adjusting to different kinds of audio, unlike say, an Echo Show 8, which has glorious stereo spatial audio sound, but has a hard time playing simple podcast and news talking voices understandably because of too heavy bass. But this can be adjusted with its online on speaker equalizer, lowering the bass to zero. The Pill automatically adjusts.
