The Beats Pill speaker is back — now with 24-hour battery life and USB-C audio

After months of leaks and teases, the Beats Pill speaker has been announced.

Available to order beginning today for $149.99, this portable Bluetooth speaker looks very similar to past versions, but it now offers IP67 dust and water resistance and USB-C wired audio and supports native software features like Find My / Find My Device across both iOS and Android. Other specs include battery life “up to 24 hours,” speakerphone functionality, and the ability to pair two Pill speakers together either in stereo or mono for synchronized playback if they’re in different rooms. The speaker’s USB-C port is versatile: it can charge the Pill as well as external devices and also supports line-in audio.
