This beats (pun intended) the Roam by a mile : [https://www.beatsbydre.com/speakers/beats-pill](https://www.beatsbydre.com/speakers/beats-pill) We have a HomePod taped to the bottom of a closet in the bathroom for 3 years now, works like a charm tho.

I'd agree with you on that as far as sound goes... but thats only up to 60 percent volume... after that the flip 7 goes to shit... had it not id still have mine beats pill holds its sound much better than flip 7 up to those volume levels ... but also beats pill destroys it on battery life .. I mean absolutely smokes it on that and its convenient when ya need to take or make a phonecall.... I never thought id recommend a beats product but more I use them over the last few months since I got a pair of them I love em

I'd get the tronsmart fiitune x30 think jbl extreme 4 but better in every single way besides bein not quite as durable for mother nature but also a lot cheaper and absolutely smokes it for sound quality ... holds it bass all the way up to 100 percent volume I can't recommend it enough.... if ya want smaller than those size speakers id recommend a pair of beats pill speakers they smoke the flip 7 in having way better battery life can take or make calls with them and never thought id say it but they impress the hell outta me the more I use them ...

Hi, I have an Emberton 2 and it’s awesome although EQing on the streaming device makes it much better..people say the 2 is better than the 3 And many gonna hate me on this but the Beats Pill is a terrific speaker for all Jazz and chill music, although for other complex tracks genres I find it a must to pair two in stereo

Hey guys its been a long time since i last posted but here we are again! So i wanted to share my collection so far Soundcore boom 2 (Main speaker for home mostly) (2) Beats pills 2024 (For stereophonic sound they have super deep bass for their size i truly like them and i carry them everyday!) Tribit stormbox micro 2 (still my favourite speaker in size till today i got it previous week but i also had one in the older times but i sold it still awesome for everyday carry without taking much space!) Jbl go5 (Got it today and honestly its so fucking good! i don't know why people say its bad the lights are awesome i love the color and with some eq the bass is incredible for the size!!) Total value worth (468.75€)! My favourite speakers out of my collection is defenitly the beats pills 🔥 So yeah tell me how many speakers you have and which one is your favourite so far!

Nice there op i think that the beats pill is worth only if you get 2 of them it is a little expensive but i it is worth it becuse they sound crystal clear in stereo mode a single one is good too but it dosen't sound that good. Hope i helped you :D

For reference I listen to alot of EDM, hardstyle, bass heavy stuff. I got a beats pill for christmas and I feel like it does a good job at low volume, not a lot of bass unfortunately really and when I crank it up, i can start to hear a little distortion. Would the JBL charge 6, be a better choice? Or would you recommend a different speaker?
