And the Echo Dot is $49, frequently on sale for $39. Plus you get to choose your own speakers that will definitely sound better than the HomePod.
Interesting they are trying to sell this for music enthusiasts. It'll only appeal to Apple enthusiasts.

- goshx 9y ago"will definitely sound better than the HomePod" -- hard to make that statement without actually hearing it. The technology behind it looks promising.
- michaelmrose 9y agoAudio enthusiasts tend to already own speakers presumably changing speakers unless its truly phenomenal may not be a feature valuable to audio enthusiasts.
- goshx 9y agoI think that's just marketing bait trying to get to amateurs' ego for them to become self declared audio enthusiasts.
- briandear 9y agoHave you even heard the speaker yet? Pretty hard to critique the audio quality if you haven't heard the audio quality.
- TYPE_FASTER 9y agoThe Echo Dot is not really usable on its own as a device to play music because of the poor audio quality. You can have a conversation with Alexa, but that's about it.
- mcphage 9y agoYeah, you can pair an Echo Dot with a nice speaker like a Sonos Play 5, it'll probably sound even better. Of course, at that point you're paying $549 instead of $349, so that's not really the same thing at all.
