The line of Beats By Dre audio products has welcomed a new addition this month. The latest product from Beats is the Pill+, wireless Bluetooth speaker, according to XXLMag.com.
The Beats By Dre website describes the Pill+ as boasting “sound bigger than its size.” The speaker features “defined, pure sound quality in a portable, compact design,” a 12-hour rechargeable battery, built-in speakerphone, and more.
The Pill+ can be purchased for $229.95, and is available in either black or white.
The announcement of the Pill+ comes months after Beats Pill XL speakers were recalled by Apple due to overheating concerns.
A listing on the Apple website, which was posted over the summer, stated the following:
“Apple has determined that, in rare cases, the battery in the Beats Pill XL Speaker may overheat and pose a fire safety risk. This product has been sold worldwide since January 2014 by Beats, Apple, and other retailers. Customer safety is always a top priority at both Apple and Beats, and we have voluntarily decided to recall this product. If you have a Beats Pill XL Speaker, please stop using it and follow the process below to send it to Apple.”
The UE Boom is soooo much better than this.
Almost any other speaker is better than this. Beats offers mediocre sound quality when compared to other brands. Primarily because Beats is only around because teenagers made the brand popular by wearing those goofy looking headphones everywhere they go. The dumb ass kids that wear them don’t know anything about sound quality and only buy them because they think it will make them look cool because every other dip shit they know has a pair. That’s my rant for today.
I agree. I remember when 50 had SLEEK out, it was def. better sound quality than Beats.
Honestly, anything APPLE releases is overpriced and not worth it. All you are buying is the brand name. They are definitely not SONY.
