Beats Pill - Wireless Bluetooth Speaker with AppleCare+ (2 Years) - Champagne Gold

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.

Just like most others who have reviewed this item, I'm a huge fan of this version of the Beats Pill! It has the sound power of Bluetooth speakers three times its size!I did a lot of research when trying to decide how to replace my Karden Harmon Onyx, and while this speaker is much smaller, the sound quality is amazing!I bought this on sale, so I have to admit that the value for the money is awesome!Buy the Beats!

As always, beats always beat the sound, looking for a speaker, headphones etc dont buy other than beats. Also the deliver is faster than imagned. Highly recommend, I also purchased a powerbeats pro, long lasting charge, best sound quality

Hello. This product is awesome. I listen to music everyday, and I use my pill speaker. The sound is sharp as a knife. It's so sharp, I've learned the real lyrics to some of my favorite songs.. The base is excellent sound also. I can rattle the windows with this thing. I Love it!

This is a great sounding Bluetooth speaker. It has stronger lows and clearer highs than the older version. Apple updated the Bluetooth connectivity. It fully integrates with Apple OS including find my device. I don’t mind the Kim K endorsement this is absolutely a quality Bluetooth option

The beats pill champagne gold sounds good. The sound is loud, clear, and smooth. However, I feel like they need to update the actual play time of these beats pill. So far mine has been playing continuously for 9 hours now and are still playing. It’s the volume though that they have to play on in order for them to achieve up to the 24 hours playtime. I feel that’s misleading people and should be clearly stated that the volume has to be low in order for them to play up to 24 hrs. I like listening to my music fairly loud and when listening to them loudly they do not last long. You may get 2 hours of playtime when listening to music loudly on the beats pill. They do meet the functionality and plays while charging so that’s what helped me give them four stars. I also would have liked to have a champagne gold usb c charging cord to come with this instead of a black usb c cord. I am still satisfied with my purchase though since they were on sale for $99. I feel that’s a good value for the money but I definitely would not pay $149 for one. Since you can connect 2 beats pills together I did order the dark gray one to have that stereo surround sound.

Cave as a gift to replace older speaker. He absolutely loved it!!! Says sound is so much better than others. Big clear sound.

I’m not going to lie, I wasn’t a skeptic at first. I didn’t think I was going to get great sound/bass out of this little speaker, but I was wrong. This thing is fantastic and blows my other bluetooth speakers out of the water. The set up was a piece of cake, it’s lightweight, portable, charges super quickly, the sound quality is top notch, and I love the color. I’m already thinking about buying at least two more for other rooms in my house.
