Professional reviewers praise the 2024 Beats Pill as a major step forward, highlighting its impressive bass, IP67 durability, 24-hour battery, and seamless integration with Apple and Android ecosystems. While they note the lack of an EQ and advanced codecs, they consider these drawbacks minor compared to the speaker's overall performance and feature set.
Everyday users echo the experts, lauding the deep bass, long battery life, and the convenience of reverse charging. Common complaints focus on the fixed sound profile, missing high-resolution codecs, and visibility of the buttons in low light.
“The bass is surprisingly deep for such a small speaker.”
“Love that it can charge my phone - super handy at festivals.”
“Two Pills in stereo mode sound amazing - worth the extra cost.”
