would u say they are overrated and overpriced?
The Sony ULT Field 1 is on sale for like, $90, which isn't that bad. I'm sure the Beats Pill will go on sale as well. The links have all the best options so you can compare prices. You can only expect so much from a small Bluetooth speaker.
@@ThisIsTechTodayhello, the flip 6 has the same problem of distortion? Many people say that it become harsh at maximum volume, thanks
Thanks for making this video. Glad to see an actual comparison video instead of a unboxing 😂
Beats Pill 2024 vs Bose Flex pls
Great video bro, very informative and well put together! I never really comment on any videos, but had to compliment this one!
First time at the channel amazing review
Thank you! Feel free to check out the playlist of audio reviews if you want to peruse the others!
Hello! So what would you recommend to someone who wants to buy a bluetooth speaker in the size and price range of the Beats Pill? Thank You
Great and informative video!
Hey mate, great review. Could you let me know how the Pill sounds compared to a MacBook Pro 16? Kind of random but I'm considering getting the beats pill but my MacBook already sounds pretty nice when I need a speaker on the go. So want to know if it's significantly better on the Pill.
I have an M1 Max 16 inch MacBook Pro and I picked up the new Beats Pill yesterday. I’m far from a sound engineer but if you’re just looking for a random guy’s perspective, I’d say that Pill is probably about twice as loud as the MacBook speakers. There’s definitely value in having a stand-alone speaker. Definitely can fill a much larger space than the MacBook. It’s got awesome clarity, the high end sounds pretty natural to me, however I listen to a lot of rock music and certain cymbals sound a bit tinny to me. But it’s worth noting that I do listen to some pretty small bands with less than perfect sound engineering. The bass is just insane and I can’t believe something so small can move that much air. Nothing coming out of the computer will be able to compare to that. But unlike Beats product from the past, the bass isn’t overpowering and there’s a great balance to my once again untrained ears. The things that made me pull the trigger were the other features like Apple’s Find My built in, the ability to charge phones and other small devices out of the usb c port, the water resistance, and just the overall nostalgia of Apple bringing back this classic product from my childhood with some more modern technology. Hope this helps!
Very good video thanks.
Thanks for watching!
Hi, Would you know if the mic can be used with a Mac when connected via USB-C (wired mode)?
Would be interested in more bluetooth speaker reviews
what are your top mid priced items??
How long does the Beats Pill take to charge?
The one thing about small speakers is that in order to create the illusion of a bigger sound or more base is to utilize the acoustics of the surrounding area. Put it near a wall, step, etc., anything solid, and hear the huge difference. 😎
that creates echoes which creates inconsistencies in the experience.
I actually think the Beats Pill is cool because it is compact and light. Unfortunately the passive radiators are missing to achieve the full bass potential. For 170 euros the Beats Pill is simply too expensive. 120 euros are better because for 130 euros you get the JBL Charge 5 and that The sound and volume are significantly better, better highs, mids, bass and deeper bass and, above all, significantly louder
Wait does it not have passive radiators??
@@MrAlex-lk8znNope
@@ComeAtMe Wow... now that is interesting
For value for money and quality go for boom 2
which would you recommend better than this?
I had the beats pill returned it next day it's loud but lacks the bass alot for a big speaker I feel like they could've add another woofer to it and tweeter in the middle
How is beats pill vs soundcore motion 300?
Is there any choice you’d recommend in this price range (or above) for a quality speaker that can get loud?
I was thinking about these two, swinging towards the beats pill but it seems okay.
Any recommendations because I was thinking about the l Bose sound link flex but it doesn’t have the usb type C and it feels like it might get a refresh soon.
JBL Flip6 all day
Same dilemma for me but got the Pill and it sounds amazing! Not the total package but it’s worth the price cus of the battery life, typeC, apple ecosystem, design, champagne gold color is amazeballs😂 and overall sound is great! Checked out some reviews and it beats the bose flex (which I was considering too). You should give it a shot and if you dont like it, you can always return it and try other brands.
Audio engineer, please take it apart and show us the drivers 😂
I am a mixing audio engineer
@@ThisIsTechToday I see boss 😂 we are same same but DIFFERENT 😉😉
The title says "audio engineer"....you part of a misleading video. cool story bruh\
I am a transport engineer... Bus driver
I am a distribution engineer.... warehouse worker 😂
How long does the beats pill need to fully charge
Can you tell me how many watts it is please.
How about Beat Pill vs Bose Flex please?
Ok, so after trashing both of them, what do you recommend from any brand if one is in the market for a portable Bluetooth speaker?
can you review pl beats pill vs sonos roam ?
The true beats hot better sound and bass. I just got mine 2 days ago and i so impressed for the size. I very happy with mi pill🤷🏻
I loved the test un different scenarios that was helpful. Even though I also would never use a Bluetooth speaker for calls
Neither would I. I don’t know why someone would. Bad social etiquette IMO
Please do a comparison of JBL flip 6 with Beats pill
8:14 bro fell away😂😂
HEADSHOT lmao
The bass dropped too hard that he digged his own grave🤣🤣😂😂😂😅
Can you do beats pill vs marshall emberton 2?
The UE Boom 4 is just out and wished there could be a head-to-head for wireless speakers...
hello what is the song at 1:40
I bought the new champagne color and the matt black. Beautiful built and color nice reboot. However sound wise is more like to listening in shower on small space. Bottom line is ended up returning both of them. Don’t get me wrong they are ok but not loud at all, clear sound too. If they come up with a XL version for sure i will be buying it but yeah not for me.
Do a Bose Soundlink Max please?
Can you do beats pill vs Boom 4
Beats vs jbl charge 5, vs sonos roam, or harmon kardon onyx studio 7!!
I don't know the Sonos but the Harman kardon 7 😂😂 that one is to f... big compare and different sizes
@@Youworstnightmare77 I know but sometimes smaller sounds better . Sonos was good but it’s old.
Pill is a great reboot with HomePod-inspired sound, bass in 40 Hz range, and can play pretty loud at 80% volume. Anymore indoors and it shifts to its outdoor mode for long-range listening and compression. Having two of them in amplify / stereo modes helps reduce compression.
gpt ahh comment
It really does feel like a GPT comment. Wild lol
40hz from a speaker this small lol 😂
@@ThibautMahringer Don't knock it until you try it. You can feel 40 Hz through your hand when holding the speaker, and this was while standing in a crowded Apple store, using the "Sonic" app to send sign waves through the speaker.
@@setoth1234 Let me be more clear, 40hz from a speaker this size with no passive radiators is impossible.
You won't hear anything in real life tracks.
Anker soundcore motion plus vs beat pill and sony ult
Make a comparison between the beats pill and the flip 6
Commanding/demanding is not an effective strategy.
So anyone who owns this or listened to
It, would you say this is better than the Bose soundlink flex?
So what speaker do you recommend?
Nice
i got sony field 1 for 99£, i think are very good for the price also sounds good at max vol for me
Which is the portable speaker with the best sound on the market for you?
I wonder if these sound better than Bose flex
I bought the beats pill today and it’s highly disappointing, to the point where I think something is defective on mine
Return it and get Sony or Jbl or something 🤣🤣
Oh no! I just bought mine today
Please compare Beats Pill v/s JBL charge 5 😅
I'm waiting for Beats Pill vs UE Boom 4
Wish someone made good wired pc speakers
IK Multimedia iLoud speakers are my in a pinch small wired speakers.
you are absolute....great mahn for review............ AUDIO......... tech
Thanks!
Grenades for "a quiet place"
the beats pill sounds very apple. its like a HomePod mini. it sounds pretty good but if you pick it up and aim the driver at your face there is toooons of top end. apples speakers have a very sharp top end and lots of low mids which create that "deep rich sound" they always talk about. I have many HomePods and picked up a beats pill recently. I think apple makes some pretty darn good audio especially for the general listener. Its nothing audiophile grade but as and audiophile I am more than happy with their products.
whats the best sounding speaker in general
Vifa Helsinki
I keep my earfun uboom L 🎶 best value for money 👍
my ptsd came when i saw the rod on the sony speaker
The rod?
@@ThisIsTechToday the thing you used to beat the speaker
@@prinzexisalowqualityytber Oh. That's a drum stick.
Everyone’s understanding of sound is different, and their pursuit of music style is also different. Personally, for the more shocking bass, I think Sony is more suitable for me.
JBL Charge 5 or Beats Pill ?
Charge 5 is the better speaker and the beats pill is more of a competitor to the flip 6. Charge 5 isn’t very comparable
Best TWS / Headphones with ANC under 300 ?
Apple AirPods Pro 2
@@szaweu For android?
@@dcnw then I would go with Huawei Freebuds Pro 3, basically AirPods Pro replacement for android
most necessarily comparison!😅
Where is jbl flip6?
This video isn’t about it, why would you expect it to be?
FIL THE SPEAKER WITH WATER HE SAID
I mean, how could you not? It’s so much fun. Haha
@@ThisIsTechToday you live on the edge haha
Earfun Uboom L is better than both of them.
The soundcore x600 is better than them both.
try the soundcore boom 2
This video isn't about that, but thanks.
Try the Tribit Xsound plus 2 🔥
This video isn't about that, but thanks.
I've got JBL Charge 5 for $97 on sale. Way better than the pill or ULT field 1.
For you folks on the fence, i own both, and the Sony is far superior in every category, and its not even close.
Not really.
@@ThisIsTechToday then you're not really good at judging quality of sound, quality of build and bang for buck.
@@Matt-xv2cp I also have both, also the JBL flip 6 and the Sony is much better in everything, deeper bass, better mids and that it plays louder than the other two
The only downside to the Sony is the battery life, if you play at 70-80% volume it lasts 5-6 hours
Paid?
Watch the disclosure at the end.
I don't get what the point of these are
to play music😂🤦♂️
They produce sound and are small.
Guys go for beats pills its lot better than sony he just hate apple.
Ha, ha, are you an engineer? I have a ULT 1 and is pretty good, I don't know if is the best but...
....how did you get "I hate Apple"out of this video I made off of a Mac? lmao
@@ThisIsTechToday who cares are this is paid promotion...
@@Gianni-tn2xg yes I'm
@@sachinmichaelantoa8910 and I am the POPE
I WAIT UNTIL THE SALE DROPS
TO MUCH MONEY..
OKAY
To top it all off, Beats Pill looks boring and outdated
sony is crap for racetrack driver speaker even a flip 6 or wking d320 is nicer beats is smart they use same hardware as a flip 6 but do wonder if they copied tunning //.
Ha ha, who cares your comment? 🤡
