This portable speaker looks as good poolside as it does on the shelf. Plug it in and it'll even play lossless audio.
Why is this a good deal? ????
At just $100, the Beats Pill is a steal. Beats gear rarely sees this kind of discount, so if you’ve been eyeing one, now’s the time to grab it.
Why do I need this? ????
Not all speakers are created equal. The Pill isn't just louder; it delivers richer, deeper, room-filling sound than other comparable models. How? A larger woofer and redesigned tweeter move more air, bringing out the bass while keeping every note crisp, no matter the frequency. Speaking of clean audio: Audiophiles can skip Bluetooth altogether and plug in with a USB-C cable for lossless, high-resolution sound. You can even pair two Pills and listen in stereo.

The best part about the Beats Pill, in my opinion, is its portability and 24-hour battery life. Is your phone running low on battery from playing music all day? No problem. In addition to playing music, the Pill can charge your cell. You can also take calls and talk to Siri.
Oh, and it looks great too ... which makes it all the more attractive that the Pill is on sale in all colors: Matte Black, Statement Red, Champagne Gold, Dark Gray and Light Gray.
At just 8.6" long, 2.8" wide and $100, there's nothing hard to swallow about this Pill. (Amazon)
What reviewers say ????
This little speaker has more than 800 five-star reviews. That's a lot of people singing its praises, including folks who rave about the sound quality, especially now that it's 33% off.
Pros ????
The design is great, and the sound is awesome," praised one five-star reviewer who couldn't stop raving about the sound. "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 same happy customer compared the Pill to their other wireless speakers, confirming that they are, in fact, a true audiophile. "This new Beats Pill is a direct competitor to Bose Soundlink Flex, JBL Charge 5, Sono Move etc.... This new Pill is as good, if not better than all these competitors, and is cheaper than all of them!"
Another five-star user called their Beats Pill use case as "boring" and then described it in the same exact way as I use my speakers, so I'm not sure if I should be offended. "I use it in boring ways, at my desk, in the kitchen during chores, doing yoga - and it just shines, filling the room with music."
Cons ????
"I was expecting this Beats Pill... 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... is much larger than the original one," cautioned a long-time Pill owner who still gave the speaker a five-star rating. "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."
A final critique came from a four-star reviewer. "Overall really love this speaker. It sounds so good for its size and has an amazing sound quality that's crisp and clear. Only negative I have found is that it's slightly hard to turn off the speaker sometimes."

This hue is actually called Statement Red, and it's perfect for the significant other who Just. Doesn't. Listen. Har.
