Apple_Bar said: but Linksys says this is coming in a future update... sure guys... They’ve already started to deliver HomeKit on their other Tri-Band routers so I’m sure this will be coming next.

rainmaker said: Very good review, but one thing was very nearly left out — the AirPod Pros Spatial Audio is fantastic and yet it was barely mentioned. Do the Bose QuietComfort have such a feature for comparison sake? Also, I just discovered…

dewme said: Thanks for the fair and objective review. I would have been shocked if the Bose didn’t win on the ANC comparison. They know ANC. I guess the true test is to put Andrew on the Singapore Airlines nonstop flight from Newark to Singap…

red oak said: OMG. This thing requires is own non-smartphone hardware device. Its worse than I thought! Smartphones, other than the Samsung models, only work via NFC. This offers compatibility with all readers.

MustSeeUHDTV said: I personally don't like the design/color, but that does not mean it will not sell well. It does defeat Apple color scheme, so you can get any phone color (if you need to have the iPhone 12 now) and it will be covered up. …

rob53 said: So it sounds like you can only use two HomePods of any size for home theater use. No rear speakers or even a center speaker or woofer, the two HomePods will do everything. Is this correct? Do they actually handle enough of the …
