All signs point to the launch of Apple’s HomePod being imminent. The smart speaker received FCC approval this week, while a separate report said Apple’s supplier has started shipping the first 1 million units.
Are you planning to buy Apple’s HomePod?
HomePod was originally slated to be released last year, but Apple delayed that launch into “early 2018” saying that it needed “just a little more time before it’s ready for our customers.”
Personally, I plan on buying the HomePod when it’s released. While I did bite the bullet and purchase two Sonos Ones recently, I’m eager for the HomePod’s integration with Apple Music.
The Siri vs Alexa argument isn’t all that interesting to me. In my two months with Sonos One, I’ve found myself rarely using the Alexa integration at all. Of course, your use cases may differ and you may rely heavily on the integrated assistant.
Are planning to buy Apple’s HomePod when it’s released in the coming weeks? Let us know in the poll and discuss amongst yourselves down in the comments.
