Statistics say now one-in-six Americans owns a smart speaker now in 2018. Apple first unveiled it in June, the HomePod was already late to make an appearance with the Alexa-powered Amazon Echo hitting the market in late 2014. Although no reason was released for the delay. that Apple doesn’t seem to have trouble getting the FCC approval. The FCC approval papers date back to September, suggesting it was something else that caused the delay even till now. The HomePod is differentiated largely by its emphasis on sound quality and featuring Apple’s custom A8 ARM-based silicon to give it some genuine on-board brain. The HomePod uses an algorithm that continuously analyzes the music and then dynamically tunes the speaker output in response.

The HomePod is Priced at a steep $349, it will want to sound amazing for a tiny 6-inch tall device. Expect it for next month, or March at the very latest if it is to meet Apple’s launching “early 2018” promise.
