Beats Pill
Score: 90/100
OHAYO X3
Score: 93/100Rankings
The OHAYO 40 W speaker packs powerful audio, IPX7 waterproofing, and eye-catching RGB lighting into a moderately sized unit with long battery life and ultra-low latency. It excels for outdoor parties and gaming, though bass depth and charging speed are its main drawbacks.
The renewed Beats Pill in Champagne Gold offers a full-day battery, IP67 protection and versatile USB-C functionality, with a design focused on durability and ecosystem integration. Its fixed sound profile and lack of advanced Bluetooth codecs keep it from being a high-end audiophile speaker.
