  • "HomePod/I've been testing Apple's new HomePod for the last week or so, and this is the first product review I've written that could be accurately summarized in the length of a tweet, and an old-school 140-character tweet at that: HomePod does exactly what Apple says it does, doesn't do anything more than what Apple says it does, and costs $349.

  • "Apple's HomePod Has Arrived. Don't Rush to Buy It." ["But after a week — during which I asked HomePod to play my favorite tunes from artists like Beck, The Talking Heads and David Bowie — the smart speaker still did not learn.
