My HomePod is doing everything his HomePod is doing because she can hear this video lol damn this HomePod is sensitive!
wildreams possibly, but I don’t want that to happen lol
On the iPhone yes, but not on the HomePod. It was proven.
Mike Fields bahahahah mine did to hahahaha
Hahahha that happened to me when I was sending my friends video of mine
And I was playing it back

Not sensetive, but more correctly pretty stupid and limited product.
You can get a bose speaker for $130.00. It doesn’t have Siri but it’s a lot cheaper. I am a big Apple fan but the price would have to drop for me to get it.
My Bose Solo 5 is not as good as HomePods (As a TV Speaker or just playing songs from my other devices). And the price is similar in Australia. I don’t think there is a speaker in the HomePods’s price range can have better sound outputs than HomePods. Then again, Siri is dumb, if you want something that can answer most of your commends and questions, you should skip this. But I’m an Apple Music user, and I don’t have any smart switches or lights. HomePods fits me well.
Same here..it’s all about music
Grant Silvestri don’t be poor

HomePod can’t sound good, what are you talking about.
It’s doesnt have Bluetooth so you can’t use it just for speaker unless you have iphone or mac?
What song started when Jeff said, “Play something forrrrr concentration.”
OneTerrabyte So far to go – J Dilla
Trash
Lol
Careful with how to throw around those “hey Siri”s. Almost had to give up on watching the video cuz my phone kept going off lol
I don’t see the utility of the HomePod (and all of the other product like Amazon Echo…), even if it was free.
With the Apple Watch, I just started to see why people are using the smart watch.
But why I should get the HomePod ?
Jason ATTAL cause it’s the greatest thing ever
David lol
Why are you using jump cuts after saying “hey Siri…”, that’s really misleading man. You’re making it seem like she’s responding faster than she actually is.
Interesting comment! Now I am questioning everything
I agree. Very visible. Why fool us?
I have purchased quite a lot of apple tech, which I use regularly but I fail to see how the $350 price tag justifies this item. Amazon and Google already have similar items released for half the price. Maybe at $150-199 I would consider it, but not at 350.
It’s the speaker that you are paying for not the assistant, speaker first assistant second, unlike googles and Amazon’s assistant first speaker second (except the google max which itself costs 400$)
if i don’t pay for apple music…I guess homepod won’t do searches ?
GANGA SINGH no it just won’t play Apple Music lol
Dude, I thought you need hand tracking function more than voice recognition
You are cutting the video after the Siri commands, making it seem as if her responses are instant. There’s such a long delay for responses in real life…
Brady Gentile no there’s not
David yes, there is. Are you denying that the video wasn’t cut? That’s ridiculous if you are.
Brady Gentile it’s not cut dumbass
He’s tapping the button so it stops
So he can speed the video
David Check 4:08-4:10. After he gives the command, watch his hand. It immediately switches to a new frame, where his hand is in a slightly altered position and her response is immediate. In addition, the question/response sequence which follows has the same post-prod cutting.
Brady Gentile stop lying
It’s just pathetic at this point
Thumbs up for Nintendo Switch
Any chance you can share a link to the playlist at 5:27 please?
I want to like this product but I’m not investing until it gets right multi user support and Siri can do more. 90% if the focus is music which I’m not super interested in. I put Sonos in my home 6 years ago… yes 6 years ago! The fact that I can spend $40 on a echo dot and plug it into a connect amp really shuts down my want for a HomePod. I’m happy for Apple on their sound engineering but what about the rest of the product?
Get the iOS 11.3 beta. Stereopairing is on there
Get well, Jeff! And thanks for the video.
Geewhiz 1st Gen. product. Features are coming. This is Apple. iPhone-iPod Apple TV. They all have a slow start. Concerned about privacy there’s a switch for that. Dude you act like they building for you personally. Bottom line is a great sounding on speaker with Siri enabled. Quit whining!!!
Whenever he says hey siri, my Siri pops up. Never thought my first girl would run away with another guy so easily
