Beats Pill
JBL Flip 7
In most respects, the JBL Flip 7 is a better speaker than the Beats Pill. Even though the JBL is a touch smaller, it feels better-built and can get just a smidge louder than the Beats. You can also tweak the speaker's sound to your taste using the EQ in the companion app, but the Beats app doesn't have an EQ. That said, the larger Beats has a battery that lasts a couple of hours longer off a single charge, and it has a mic that works with your phone's voice assistant. If you need hands-free control, the Beats is the way to go. For most people, the JBL offers a better balance of features.
