The New 2024 Beats PIll is the latest Bluetooth Speaker by Beats by Dre, but how does it compare with the Sony ULT Field 1 portable Bluetooth speaker? In this review and comparison of the Beats PIll and Sony ULT Field 1, I compare and test their sound, features, microphones, and more from an audio engineer's perspective.

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.

@ray-wc1gf 28 дней назад

@lntg Месяц назад

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.

@thecolelaurain 29 дней назад

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!

@E_Stew 28 дней назад

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. 😎

@thechazz8080 Месяц назад

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.

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.

@Shanshoes11 10 дней назад

I guess I'm the crazy one cuz I tested comparable-size JBL, Bose, Sony & beats Pill. All four side by side. I picked the Pill. I listen to music everywhere and without trying to sound like I'm bragging my home stereo is a Krell & B&W set up worth 30,000 dollars and the beats pill sound like my stereo played at low volume. Hope this helps everyone trying to make up their minds. Its you who is listening and if you care about sound quality like I do then you have to do your due diligence.

@setoth1234 Месяц назад

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.

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.

@Countrylovecocoa Месяц назад

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

If they come up with a XL version for sure i will be buying it but yeah not for me.

@scapulartech9347 28 дней назад

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.
