So who's buying this thing? $299 is chump change for quality stereo equipment. Now it's a good price at 50 bucks off. I think it's for grandma and grandpa no longer interested in soundstage and imaging, are on a fixed income and living in a smaller place...
(Image credit: Tom's Guide)There isn’t anything revolutionary about the HomePod (2nd generation), but as with most of Apple’s products, it’s a well thought out device. In terms of audio quality, it’s rivaled only by the Sonos One; I somewhat prefer the So...
Clear and detailed sound, Easy to set up and use, Supports Dolby Atmos, eARC, Pair two with an Apple TV 4K for a complete system,
Needs an iOS device for setup, No optional subwoofer, Limited maximum volume
Apple's attractive and intelligent HomePod speaker arrives just in time to ride the spatial audio wave. It's a technologically advanced, high-fidelity, hyper-smart speaker that transforms into a full-blown surround-sound system when you add a second one...

Sounds pretty good as long as you're not looking for details in the music, Siri is a reliable smart assistant that isn't trying to use your data against you, Looks good, Strong bass
Slight downgrade from the discontinued HomePod, I wish it came in fun colours like the HomePod Mini, Music reproduction lacks clarity and details
The Apple HomePod 2nd generation is still the best Siri-integrated smart speaker, but not a good fit for audiophiles...
Good, Looks good, Much more capable than the size suggests, Flawless connectivity with Apple devices, Works well as a speaker for your TV, Flexible, powerful sound
Expensive, Limited IoT capabilities for now
As far as smart speakers go, the Apple HomePod (2nd Gen) is undeniably expensive, and too specific in its functionality for many to even want to consider in India. However, if you have an iPhone and other Apple hardware such as the Apple TV 4K, the HomePo...
