Apple HomePod Speaker
Alexa and Google have some domestic competition. After a brief delay, the Apple HomePod is ready to bring Siri into your abode. Standing under seven inches tall, it's a 3D mesh-wrapped cylinder with a ton of tech built-in. Audio is its core mission, as evidenced by the array of seven tweeters, precision acoustic horns, and a four-inch upward-facing subwoofer. Thanks to its Apple A8 brain, it makes the most of them by automatically detecting your space and creating a sound profile tailored to your home. And of course, an array of six microphones let you talk to Siri, so you can do everything from play an Apple Music playlist to set a location-based reminder using nothing more than your voice. The 5.5-pound counter computer is available in white or space gray.
