Start the Year with Hot Deals at CES
January ushers in the new year alongside the renowned Consumer Electronics Show (CES), one of the most significant technology gatherings of the year. This event not only captivates tech enthusiasts with announcements of groundbreaking products but also offers a treasure trove of discounts on older items, making it an ideal time for savvy shoppers.
If you’re in the market for a sleek, portable Bluetooth speaker that delivers solid bass and a host of features, consider the Beats Pill. This speaker is currently available at its Prime Day price of $99.99 (down from $149.95), marking the lowest price since its launch, as reported by price-tracking websites. At under a hundred bucks, this deal is quite the catch.
The Beats Pill speaker has been a go-to choice since its introduction in June. It ticks all the boxes for a portable speaker: offering stereo sound when paired with another compatible speaker, multi-room capability for playing across various devices, integration with Apple’s Find My Device for easy tracking, and a built-in microphone allowing it to function as an extension of your phone.
It’s worth noting that while this speaker caters to Apple users seamlessly, Android devices can still connect via Bluetooth 5.3. However, it only supports AAC and SBC codecs, which means that Android users might miss out on some enhanced audio experiences. For those in the Apple ecosystem, the pairing process is hassle-free; the Pill is automatically detected by iPhones, whereas Android users must manually initiate the connection. For a deeper insight into its performance, take a look at PCMag’s thorough review.
In terms of battery performance, the Beats Pill offers up to 24 hours of playback on a single charge, depending on usage patterns. Sound quality remains consistent with Beats’ signature style—offering a bright tone that is both balanced and bass-heavy. The primary drawback is the absence of an adjustable EQ within the app, but it delivers excellent sound quality straight out of the box, making it a worthy investment at this reduced price.
