After listening to mine for a few days, I realized that there is just no high, mid, or low separation. Ive done demos for multiple people compared to the Bose Soundlink Flex and everyone says the Flex blows it away. The clarity is just not there and its soundstage is not wide at all on the Pill. I bought it to compare to the Bose....Im returning it. The music quality to me just doesnt sound natural. The bass on the Soundlink Flex is MUCH better too.

Just ordered one for the wife after my sons new puppy chewed through the cable of the Air pod mini, so disappointed with apple's mini pods and even the (old ) home pod, great sound, just never stay connected, could never trust them at a party, will try this Pill and if good get some more. Thanks for the great review.

I have been using this speaker for the past couple of days now. I also have a JBL Xtreme 3 as a bigger alternative. If you are looking for something that is going to fit in your bag easily and take it on a holiday, that looks and feels nice and sounds decent; it think it is one of the best options. I like the integration of the find my too. It needs to have a sleep timer tho, it is kinda ridiculous. As long as a phone is connected to it, it does't turn itself off. So if that can get fixed, this will be a brilliant speaker.

Does this compete with the Charge 5 or the Flip 6? It looks like it might be somewhere in between. I have the Charge 5 and I am pretty happy with the sound however the rest of the device is a bit disappointing. It is supposed to be able to connect to two devices at once but EVERY time I have tried it the sound just become crackly so I have to disconnect one of the devices. Also even when just one device is connected, it will sometimes crackle/skip even when the phone is close by and in line of sight. The buttons are also dumb like what if my phone is in another room and I turn on the JBL, it connects to my phone and my GF's phone and when I hit play, my GF's music starts playing. I want to change the input device to my phone but there's no way to do this from the JBL. I also have a Bose Soundlink Flex and although I prefer the sound of the JBL, the Bose is WAY smarter and blows the JBL out of the water. It can connect to two devices with no issues at all. You can easily switch between devices with a double click of the Bluetooth button and it will even tell you which devices are connected etc. It's hands down a smarter device. I shouldn't be shocked that the JBL is dumb, it's made by Samsung after all.

I use the new tribit x sound plus 2, and I think it easily beats the beats. It is cheaper at 70 dollars, with superb sound quality of 30watts. Plus it gives cover protection for the usb c and the 3.5mm aux port, Unlike the beats here has an open usb c port and No aux port.. I also have the jbl charge 3 and that is also great but I prefer the tribit with new features at a lower cost and greater louder cleaner sound.

I’ve had the beats pill+ since launch and this year is the first year I’ve had issues with it after 100s of drops and thousands of charges and power ons&off and the only issue I’ve had is the silicone or rubber covering the power button has ripped off, or more of it started to dry-rot. Put tape over it though and it’s still getting used.

All the manufacturers are basically copying JBL these days with their speakers’ driver layout. JBL was the first to use the racetrack driver in their speakers, and added the tweeter in their charge 5 and flip 6. Sony recently used a similar design in the ULT Field 1, and now it looks like Apple have re-released the Beats Pill speaker with the same design. It’s a good design in my opinion, and a good move for the Beats speaker that has up until now struggled to compete. Sure, they’re all Mono now, but stereo doesn’t really make a difference in a speaker this small.
