brilliant sound, can hear you very well, full production at low volumes, choice of male or female voice
Siri not up to scratch, no Bluetooth or analogue audio in, no native Spotify or radio, no Android or Windows support
As a simple wireless speaker the HomePod sounds truly brilliant, knocking the socks off most of the competition, including systems costing more. But because it is locked down to Apple-only devices and services it might not be as easy to fit into your exis...
Excellent, nuanced sound, Great design, Easy HomeKit setup and control, Streaming support via AirPlay
No built-in support for Spotify, Pandora, or other apps, Requires iOS device running iOS 11.2.5 to set up, No Bluetooth or Aux jack for non-iOS devices, No multi-room support at launch
Do buy the HomePod if you are a hard-core Apple user and perfectly happy with Apple Music. Do not buy it if you own any phone other than an iPhone or want to listen to music sources other than Apple Music...
Amazing sound quality, Siri voice accuracy is high, Attractive, understated design
Siri is limited, No Bluetooth streaming, Apple Music subscription needed for a worthwhile experience
Once again, we come to the familiar question with Apple: is it worth spending your money on this product, or are you better off doing so on one that's cheaper and does a lot of the same things, albeit without, perhaps, the same level of polish?The Apple H...

Apple's HomePod has left a seriously good impression on us. It looks great, has a vast array of useful smart features and can finally bring Apple Music to your living room via voice control.However, it's biggest selling point is simply the way it sounds...

Excellent highs and lows from the sound. Design
Price. Midrange sound not perfect. Confusing UI
There's nothing terribly wrong with the HomePod, so why am I slightly disappointed with it? Perhaps it is that Apple is guilty here of over-promising and under-delivering?When the HomePod was revealed we were told it was going to blow everything else away...
No radio, Made a mark on our worktop, No multi-room support, No multi-timer support, Only works with Apple Music, Siri sounds horrid
If we were grading the HomePod on its sound performance alone it would be a slam dunk. Apple has produced a small speaker that produces a sound way above its stature, in a way that is enjoyable to listen to whatever you music you're in to. It is a natural...
Apple's $349 HomePod has excellent bass and consistently superior sound quality across a wide variety of music genres. The speaker is easy to set up and Siri can hear you from across a room
You're stuck with Apple-only audio services when using voice commands and the HomePod only works on iOS. Some key features, including multiroom audio and stereo pairing, aren't yet available but are coming soon. Siri and HomeKit lack Alexa and the Google
Apple's HomePod won't slay Amazon Alexa out of the gate. But if you're an iPhone user who prizes sound quality above all, you should seriously consider this speaker...
Apple's voice assistant Siri is builtin, you can ask it to adjust the volume, skip tracks or play a specific song, album or playlist, Siri isn't restricted to control of music the voice assistant can also give you the weather, convert measurements, set ti
Even if you have a subscription to Apple Music, this won't work with Android devices as you can't set it up, It's very expensive, While there's no multiroom support at present, Apple says you will be pair two HomePods together later this year
The perfect speaker for iPhone or iPad owners that want excellent sound quality and the benefits of a voice assistant too. Simple to set up, HomePod nearly has it all - although unfortunately it can't be used to create a multi-room audio system yet...

The HomePod is a great-looking, brilliant-sounding, easy-to-control smart speaker that will fit naturally, both stylistically and functionally, in any Apple fan's tech collection. For those who have held off a smart speaker based on them looking cheap and...
Tallying up the scores, it's Google Home that comes out on top. Obviously, considering I'm yet to nail down any proper time for testing, the HomePod doesn't yet win any category but I'll update this comparison as and when we get Apple's Siri-powered speak...
