Apple’s HomePod is actually a surprisingly good speaker. It’s definitely held back a bit by Siri, but in terms of sound quality it’s fantastic. Of course, it’s also insanely overpriced so there are a bunch of better options out there. In fact, the HomePod is so overpriced that you can get not one but TWO Sonos Play:1 speakers for $50 less than a single HomePod. But wait! You also get a free $30 Amazon gift card with your purchase, so you’re effectively paying $80 less than you would for one HomePod. How crazy is that!?
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
