The editors didn't like
Not the most rugged portable speaker out there
But the included carrying case makes up for that. Had some issues when pairing and often had to turn the Pill on and off. Bass is weak. Observed some distortion and popping at very high volumes
Distorts heavily at high volumes
The Pill is somewhat pricey
And Apple iOS 6 users may encounter an unacceptable amount of Bluetooth hiccuping. The speaker doesn't acquit itself terribly well with big bass tracks from artists like Dr. Dre
Lacks buttons for changing tracks
No Voice Command/Call Announce
Speakerphone suffers from latency
Uninspiring design
Bass performance Below par battery
USB-C volume is finicky
No USB-C port cover
Close to zero bass. Frequent dropouts
Even when line of sight was maintained. Upper frequencies are harsh — and so is the price
