I should note, for those that care, that there is a vowel-challenged product out there called "TRNTBL" that is a wireless record player, and it includes support for streaming directly to Apple's AirPlay. It appears that they are shipping some units …

SpamSandwich said: OK, never mind the review, other than The Crystal Method I’ve never heard of a single song or group mentioned in the article. Now I am curious. Honestly, my first draft of this review didn't mention any songs at all, bec…

pontavignon said: Review needs to be split. 1. Music speaker qua speaker. How does it compare with other compact speakers in the same price range, never mind whether or not there is a voice assistant. Now, rate that how many out of five. 2. V…

newcode said: Puzzled to read the comment in the review about “play the latest album by” not working as I’ve done that loads of times on my iPhone. So I tried it on my HomePod. “Hey Siri, play the latest album by Grandaddy”, and it came back…

foregoneconclusion said: gatorguy said: It's correct if speaking Spanish. Not when replying in American English, which again is different from British English. So no it's not "more correct". Surely you don't think every English word deri…

jsmythe00 said: ...interesting. Author admits to not using echo or Google home. Cool. But then compares their sound quality, which home pod excels in. But when it's time to compare Siri to them, he leaves that out. That's like me comparing …

rogifan_new said: How does Siri work with tasks the HomePod can’t handle? Do they get pushed to your iPhone or iPad or does Siri say sorry I can’t do X on the HomePod? If I ask "Hey Siri, what's on my calendar?" I get the response: "I can'…
