Black Friday is POPPING OFF thanks to this Champagne Gold Beats Pill Bluetooth speaker deal
The Champagne Gold Beats Pill is less than half price this Black Friday and incredible value at £79
Black Friday Bluetooth speaker deals have been bubbling along nicely over the past few weeks but it’s taken until the day itself for Beats to pop off with a sparkling deal on the new Beats Pill.
I reviewed the Beats Pill over the summer and gave it a four-star rating and our Recommended award, praising its engaging sound, waterproof and durable build and the fact that it can double up as a speakerphone and power bank.
Running it through a varied selection of tracks, including tunes from Charlie XCX and Eminem’s latest albums along with the Starlight Express soundtrack, I found it performed admirably. There was plenty of punch to its low-end reproduction, clarity to vocals and sparkle in the upper registers. I was also impressed by its lengthy battery life, design and ability to pick up my voice when using it for phone calls.
At that time, it cost £150. Now, the Champagne Gold version can be yours for just £79. Had it been priced like that when I reviewed it, it would likely have received our Best Buy award, despite a couple of drawbacks.
Those drawbacks – the lack of EQ options, no Bluetooth multipoint pairing and a loss of composure at maximum volume – were a slightly bitter pill to swallow at the speaker’s launch price but are pretty much inconsequential at this ridiculously low Black Friday price.
If the Champagne Gold model is slightly too sharp for your palate, there are also discounts available on the Statement Red (£79) version I reviewed, along with the Dark Grey (£90), Light Grey (£90) and Matte Black (£94) options. Those are still the best-ever prices on each option but I’d rather go for the blingy option and buy myself a bottle of fizz to down while blasting out some rowdy rhythms in my bedroom.
When not quaffing champagne and testing audio equipment during November, I’ve been keeping a beady eye on all the television deals available and listing the best of them on our Black Friday TV deals hub. Meanwhile, my esteemed colleagues have been furnishing our main Black Friday hub with cracking offers across a huge range of popular categories.
