Beats, Apple’s audio subsidiary, has introduced a new wireless speaker named Beats Pill. This latest model is a successor to the original Beats Pill, which was released before Apple’s acquisition of Beats in 2012. The speaker received an update in 2015 with the launch of the Beats Pill+ under Apple’s management, though this model was discontinued in 2022. Here are all the details about the newest Beats Pill Bluetooth speaker.
Apple Beats Pill Speaker: Cost and Availability
The new Beats Pill is available for pre-order at a price of $149.99 (approximately Rs 12,500). This updated speaker is offered in three colors: Matte Black, Statement Red, and Champagne Gold. Shipping for the speaker will commence in the US and other countries starting June 27. However, Apple has not disclosed any details regarding the speaker’s availability in India.
Apple Beats Pill Speaker: Key Highlights
- Upgraded Sound Quality: The new Beats Pill speaker features a redesigned acoustic architecture for a more powerful and immersive audio experience. The re-engineered racetrack woofer, equipped with stronger neodymium magnets, delivers 28% more motor force and displaces 90% more air volume. This results in deeper bass and a richer soundscape, while an innovative structure reduces distortion even at high volumes.
- Enhanced Tweeter Design: The redesigned tweeter provides better stability, offering crisp highs and detailed mid-range tones. The speaker’s unique 20-degree upward tilt directs sound waves towards the user’s ears, minimizing obstruction from surrounding objects.
- Extended Battery Life and Power Bank Functionality: Apple claims the new Beats Pill speaker offers 24-hour battery life and can double as a power bank, allowing users to charge their phone or other devices via the included USB-C cable.
