Beats is launching a limited-edition model of its discontinued Beats Pill+ in collaboration with American fashion house Stüssy. The launch comes quite soon after Apple discontinued Beats Pill+ in January this year. The new Pill Plus will keep the original design. The speaker will be available for purchase globally on March 4 and the audio system is expected to come at a price of $185 (roughly Rs. 14,000). Beats Fit Pro, the true wireless stereo (TWS) earphones from the California-based Apple subsidiary, were launched in the US in November last year and was made available for purchase globally in January.

The original Beats Pill+ speaker was released by Apple in 2015. It was the first device that was released after Apple’s $3 billion (roughly Rs. 22,700 crore) acquisition of Beats in 2014.

The new version of the Beats Pill+ from Beats by Dre and Stüssy is a limited-edition model and will keep the original design of the model that was discontinued by Apple in January 2022. The speaker will come in black colour with a white skull and crossbones design on the front. One side of the speaker reads “the only good system is a sound system”. Stüssy’s website says the new Pill Plus will combine the “signature Southern California aesthetic with a rich, clear sound field that will improve your listening experience anywhere.”
