JBL Charge 5 vs Beats Pill

The JBL Charge 5 and the Beats Pill are both lightweight, portable speakers, although the Beats has a smaller form factor. The Beats is a great choice for those that need voice assistant support and own an Android or iOS device, as it works with Siri and Google Assistant via a compatible device. It's also capable of playing back audio via a wired connection, including lossless audio, if you have the right streaming service subscription. The JBL is a better choice for those that want control over their sound though as it features a graphic EQ and presets in the companion app. It also has a substantially longer battery life that may sway users that want to take it on longer trips.
