Beats Pill 1.0 Repair

The Beats Pill 1.0 was first introduced by Beats Audio in October 2012. As Beats’ flagship product in the portable Bluetooth speaker market, it has since lead to the introduction of two other products that follow a similar design: the Beats Pill 2.0 and the Beats Pill XL. The features of this device include Bluetooth, v.2.1 audio, auxiliary input and output (especially useful when using Bluetooth audio), hands free communication (over Bluetooth), and a rechargeable battery over USB. The universal Bluetooth communication that this device uses is supported by most platforms such as Android, Blackberry, and Apple.

There are three variants in the Beats Pill product line: the Beats Pill 1.0, Beats Pill 2.0, and Beats Pill XL.

The Beats Pill 1.0 differs from the other models primarily in its connections and size. The Beats Pill 2.0 has the same overall form factor, speakers, and rear ports as the 1.0. The main difference is that the Beats Pill 2.0 includes a USB Charge Out port hidden on the bottom of the speaker, which is revealed by sliding the “beats pill” logo. In contrast, the Beats Pill 1.0 does not have this port and is solid in that location.

The Beats Pill XL differs significantly from the Beats Pill 1.0, primarily in size and connections. The XL measures approximately 3.75 inches in height, compared to 1.8 inches for the 1.0, making it substantially larger.

You can find the serial number of your Beats Pill on the bottom of your speaker.
