Although it’s almost Christmas, the offers have not stopped yet. In fact, there are a few deals available right now that have some of the absurd discounts we saw during Prime Day earlier this year. One of them is the amazing Beats Pill speaker, which is go back down to $100its lowest price to date, in all five colors. It will even arrive before Christmas if you order it soon.
CNET reviewer David Carnoy said it was surprising to see Apple-owned Beats launch a Pill speaker in 2024 (the company hasn’t had a new model since 2015), but it was worth the wait. Some of the updates include changes to be completely water and dust resistant, as well as USB-C charging, easy multipoint Bluetooth pairing, and Find My capabilities (although Google calls it Find My Device).

There are plenty of attractive options when it comes to Bluetooth speakers, particularly Bose’s SoundLink Flex, which isn’t as new but is top-rated and similarly priced. The Pill’s improved sound quality, improved battery life, and durability make it an attractive option, Carnoy writes. Now, with the ability to save more, it could be an even better option for those looking to upgrade.

Why is this agreement important?
Any time you see a device drop back to Prime Day or Black Friday prices, it’s a good thing for buyers. It means you can be sure the device isn’t likely to drop any further until those same events next year, and that’s a long way off.
Will this item arrive in time for Christmas?
If you are ordering as a holiday gift, you probably want to know if it will arrive on time. Since Christmas and Hanukkah will take place on December 25 this year, and Kwanzaa will begin the next day, it’s important to keep in mind shipping times for USPS, FedEx, UPS, Amazon, and others.
Guaranteed shipping times at some of these delivery companies passed December 16, and others offer expedited services that may allow you to place orders as late as December 23 or even December 24. When delivery is no longer possible, be sure to evaluate your in-store pickup options or check out these great digital holiday deals.
The Beats Pill speaker will arrive before Christmas, according to the shipping information on Amazon’s product page.
