LeBron James Teases New Beats Pill Speaker with Lanyard

Apple may be planning to release a new version of its popular Beats Pill portable speaker after a teaser featuring Lakers star LeBron James was posted online. The speaker, which was spotted in James’s hand, appears to have a lanyard attachment not seen on previous models. The original Beats Pill launched in 2012, with the Beats Pill+ debuting in 2015. Apple discontinued the Beats Pill+ in January 2022 without announcing a replacement. In 2018, there were reports that Apple was planning an AirPlay-enabled Beats smart speaker priced at $199, but this product hasn’t materialized yet.
