While we are already spotted the standard black, red, and champagne gold models dropping down to $100 ahead of the Amazon Big Spring Sale, the newer and particularly nice (if you ask me) dark and light gray Beats Pill models are now joining the fun. Regularly $150, Amazon is now offering both the gray models down at the same $99.99 shipped to deliver $50 in savings and the lowest price we can find on the latest Beats portable speaker.
Today’s $50 price drops mark a return of Amazon all-time low pricing on these models and one of the less than a handful of opportunities we have tracked to score them this low – this is matching the Amazon Black Friday price for the record.
Beats revamped, re-designed, re-introduced its iconic Pill speaker to the world last year with a series of notable enhancements. Our main takeaway after going hands-on was that it’s back and better than ever. Since then, Apple’s Beats brand introduced a couple of new colorways with the light and dark gray models – yes, these are the Beats Pill x Kim Kardashian variants, but if that rubs you the wrong way, just ignore it because they are identical as the standard models but with a fresh coast of paint.
The familiar form-factor houses just about everything you might know and love from the previous iteration, including an IP67-rated design for water/dust resistance, cross-compatibility for iPhone and Android users, and up to 24 hours of battery life with a 10-minute Fast Fuel charge delivering an additional 2 hours of playback.
That said there are some notable additions this time around for Apple users – you’ll now find built-in Find My location tracking tech (I love this), as well as iPhone/Apple Watch pairing that can automatically hand off audio to your wearable when your iPhone happens to be out of range, and the ability to pair it with every piece of gear on your iCloud account.
A complete rundown awaits right here.
Beats Pill features:
- The Beats Pill delivers powerful, room-filling sound. The bigger, bespoke racetrack woofer displaces 90% more air volume, packing more of a punch with deeper, fuller bass.
- The Beats Pill has up to 24 hours of battery life for all-day playback and can be used to charge your phone or other devices via USB-C cable.
- The portable speaker is IP67-rated for dust and water resistance for outstanding durability and includes a removable lanyard and soft-grip silicone backing to make it easy to take with you.
- The redesigned tweeter provides extra stability for crisp highs and rich mid-range tones while the woofer’s material and structure helps minimize low-end distortion even at high volumes
- Enjoy high-resolution lossless audio from your Beats Pill by connecting it to your laptop or other compatible devices via the USB-C cable
