At $349, Apple’s HomePod smart speaker was ridiculously overpriced. Most people clearly agreed, because Apple almost never gives products permanent price cuts but that’s exactly what it did with the HomePod. Now, at $299, the HomePod is… still overpriced. Instead of dropping $299 on a single smart speaker, you should consider spending $298 on a pair of Sonos Play:1 Speakers on Amazon. Oh, and when you do, you’ll also get a $30 Amazon gift card to sweeten the deal even more!
Here are the highlights from the product page:
- Works with Alexa for voice control (Alexa device sold separately)
- Fill two separate rooms with different music, or link them together to hear the same song in both. Great surround speakers for your Sonos home theater, too
- Versatile, compact fit. Place them wherever you want and enjoy rich, room-filling sound
- Streams all your favorite music services like Amazon Music Unlimited, Spotify, Pandora, Apple Music and more
- Easy 10-minute wi-fi set up. No Bluetooth pairing problems or interruptions
- Connects wirelessly to Sonos speakers in other rooms so you can expand your Home Sound System when you’re ready
