Five days after the new and improved HomePod was released, some of us are still wondering what’s new with version two. It seems that we are the only ones who have wondered the same thing and have gone to some tests scheduled by Apple to show its advantages. However, the company was a bit short in these tests and therefore we still don’t know Why did you want to launch this new version of loudspeakers which ceased to be manufactured and sold a few years ago and were replaced by a smaller model?
On January 18, Apple surprised locals and strangers alike with the launch of the new HomePod model. This new version, the second of the speaker that the American company stopped selling in 2021. Not much is known about these new models and it will be necessary to wait for its launch to carry out a more complete analysis. Taking into account that devices can normally be tested by a small number of people, on this occasion, this test did not go as planned.
Apple invited a small number of tech writers to listen to the new version of the full-size HomePod, but only allowed them to listen to brief snippets of a few songs. For example, Ty Pendlebury claimed that Apple only played one of the songs for 30 seconds. In addition, they only played two songs on one speaker and two on two at the same time connected in stereo.
Chris Welch, Jacob Kroll, Lance Ulanoff and more agree that the test they put the new models through didn’t last long enough to say how the new HomePods improved. But they also agree that the sound quality of the speakers is amazing and hard to beat. But we do not know if it will be enough to pay the almost 350 dollars that it costs.
