Beats Pill Plus Portable Wireless Speaker - Stereo Bluetooth, 12 Hours of Listening Time, Microphone for Phone Calls - Black

Incredible sound quality, easily pairs with Bluetooth devices, charges VERY quickly and lasts SO LONG. It's wonderful. It also has an AUX cable input which is extremely important to me. (Plugging in your device via an AUX cable always sounds better that using Bluetooth.) Turning it on and off makes a really cool vinyl record sound. Turning it on makes a "Vinyl record starting to play" sound and turning it off makes a "Vinyl abruptly stopping" sound, like the needle has been removed as quickly as possible making a scratch sound. Both sound really cool, that was a really cool surprise, I did not expect it to make those sounds upon turing it on and off. The speaker has some weight to it, which is nice, it feels very well made and IS very well made. It's by far the best portable speaker I've ever owned, I've compared it to the similarly priced BOSE portable speakers, and they sound like garbage compared to this. I cannot stress enough how amazing the sound quality is, and it can get EXTREMELY loud without any distortion. The main thing this speaker is made for is music, but I've watched many films on Blu-Ray and streaming services. All the film audio sounded amazing, so much so that I started using this speaker for everything I watch on the TV in my room. I run the audio that would normally come out of my TV's speakers through this speaker instead. An extremely noticable improvement in the sound of films and television. Only thing I would recommend to anyone who gets one of these Beats Pills is to get a protective carrying case. I found a great protective hardcase that's custom fit for this exact version of the Beats Pill+ for around $10 here on Amazon and everything fits like a glove. Like I said the speaker does have some weight to it so if you're going to be bringing it around with you everywhere, definitely get a case for it. Dropping this speaker could potentially destroy it. Luckily I've never dropped mine so I don't know for sure but the case is a must unless you're just going to leave it in your house. This is an absolutely wonderful speaker in every way, the sound quality is truly amazing. I would highly recommend this to anyone who cares about the quality of sound, of both music and film/television. (Everyone should care about sound quality, but plenty of people don't and just watch and listen to movies/television through their phone's speaker, and actually listen to music the same way, which is just so absurd to me.)Buy this, you will love it! -

The Pill+ is a huge improvement from the Pill 2.0. The sound is just on another level from the previous model. I also love that this one has some weight to it, and doesn't feel like a toy. The fact that I can charge it with the same lightning connectors I have around the house is super convenient. Apple's design influence and attention to detail are certainly present in this. It looks and feels like a premium product.It's very easy to set up, and the battery life is incredible so far.Like others, at this price point I expected this to be the successor to the discontinued Pill XL, which at lower volumes it does sound just as great and fill the room - albeit not as bass-y. But once you crank the volume, there's no comparison to the Pill XL, unfortunately. If you're expecting comparable loudness, bass, and overall sound clarity to the XL at high volumes, might wanna look elsewhere, or hope for a Pill XL+ in the future.The Pill+ is still very good - leaps and bounds above the Pill 2.0 - but still not on par with Pill XL.I'd say it's a good compromise between the big sound of the XL model, and portability of the small model.Overall, I do quite enjoy this speaker and would highly recommend it.

My Pill+ and I have a love affair going on. I'm an avid music lover, and this Pill brings it on home in ANY room. Great around the house, and the quality of sound is absolutely AMA-AAA-ZING!!! Family & guests are amazed at the sound, and swear to buy one for their homes. Stick it into a corner (or I read, in a bag) and the sound in amplified and deepened. Connects by bluetooth, and while I have my own music source, I've had guests connect and play their music too. Comes with a lightweight (material) cover, and I understand you can by harder case-covers online. I travel with it, and can't believe how convenient it is. It has a little weight to it, but I don't mind it. I've been known to have it in my pocketbook, streaming music as I shop. Everyone greets me with smiles, and of course, wants to know were it's coming from. Charges quickly & lasts 8-12 hours. (I think it's 12 hours max - but haven't tried it.) Easy use of an Apple charger, works great - even in the car.

This speaker is one of the best ones i have purchased in a long time. It sounds great and when i am in the gym with my friends the whole gym could hear the sound like their right next to the speaker. It has a little weight to it and it could get frustrating when you are caring it but in all it is a great thing to invest in. now some people don't like beats or apple or other top brands. But those people do not know what they are talking about. This speaker is outstanding. Especially if you don't have your battery charger that comes with the speaker you can use any lightening charger from apple to charge the speaker. I would recommend this product to everyone. I even bought my cousin, dad, and even my grandma one for christmas and they love it so much. I also hear its really nice to have it in the bathroom with you if you like music while being in the bathroom. It sounds nice and keeps you company. lol. I don't really listen to music that much but i listen to beats 1 apple radio all the time and i can't get over how good the music and sound sounds. the white one could get dirty pretty quick but all it needs is a few while offs every so often. It is also good for audio books as you could be driving or doing other stuff while listening to a book. In all the new beats pill plus is a outstanding product and a must buy for teen agers and other grown adults. i recommend not buying for children under 10 as it is very easy to crack or break or even get wet. They do make cases for the beats pill but you don't really need one. Dr. Dre and Tim Cook are off to a great start in their company and what i am hearing is they have a bunch of stuff planed for 2016 and beyond.
