Soundcore Anker 3
Score: 88/100
Beats Pill Pink
Score: 90/100Rankings
The renewed Beats Pill Pink delivers powerful bass, a full-day battery and IP67 durability, with versatile USB-C functions that include reverse charging and wired audio. Its lack of an EQ app and multipoint Bluetooth keep it from being a premium audiophile option.
The Soundcore Anker 3 offers a powerful 16 W output, USB-C fast charging and IPX7 durability while maintaining a 24-hour battery life in a compact, lightweight design. Its Bluetooth range is modest and it lacks some premium features, but it delivers strong sound for its price tier.
