Apple issues voluntary recall of all Beats Pill XL speakers due to fire safety hazard

Apple, who acquired Beats Audio in 2014, issued a voluntary recall for all Beats Pill XL speakers, including a refund for customers. Apple has found that the battery in the Beats Pill XL may overheat and pose a fire safety risk. The recall does not affect any other Beats or Apple products. The Beats Pill came to market in 2013, before Apple and Beats completed their acquisition.

"Because customer safety is the company’s top priority, Apple is asking customers to stop using their Beats Pill XL speakers. Customers who purchased a Beats Pill XL speaker should visit http://www.apple.com/ca/support/beats-pillxl-recall/ for details about how to return their product to Apple, and how to receive an Apple Store credit or electronic payment of $395," said an Apple statement.
