With sound still not up to scratch, the latest Pill leaves us prescribing better and more affordable rivals It's a bitter pill to swallow for Apple, which has no doubt improved an average speaker line living off the brand's street cred – just not by enough.

Awesome product

There's plenty of strong competition in this price range, however, and most of it offers more in the way of features and/or audio performance. DesignMeasuring 2.5 by 2.7 by 8.3 inches (HWD) and weighing in at a surprisingly hefty 1.7 pounds, the Pill+ has an oblong, slender contour that will fit fairly easily in a tote, but less so in smaller bags. Available in matte black or white, the Pill+ has a minimalist design—other than the familiar Beats logo on the upper panel, there are few flourishes. The Apple effect (Apple purchased beats in 2014) is noticeable only in subtle ways—the connection point for t...
