Apple is not only a leader in the mobile phone industry, but also a well-deserved giant in the music industry, as early as the beginning of the century, Apple has established a foothold in the digital music market with iPod series products and iTunes store. In 2014, Apple acquired Beats by Dr. Dre, an audio equipment production and streaming music service for $3 billion, which also laid the groundwork for the subsequent launch of Apple Music and Homepod speakers.
 
Homepod's materials and design are almost impeccable, the speaker shell is wrapped in an integrated mesh fabric, which vividly reflects Apple's design aesthetics, and the built-in six high-sensitivity microphones work with sound capture algorithms, allowing users to wake up the speaker's built-in Siri from a distance when playing music, in addition, this set of microphones can also collect sound reflections in real time to make adjustments, so that the speaker is in the best condition.
 
Perhaps influenced by Beats, the Homepod's low frequencies are quite abundant, and the listening sensation is very different from Apple's other products' "boiled water breeze", and the detail performance of the mids and high-frequencies is also quite good, and the overall sound quality is one of the best in the same volume of speakers, and digital media such as theMasterSwitch and the Verge have also fully affirmed it.
 
The price of the National Bank Homepod is 2299 yuan, and users with a sufficient budget can buy two Homepods to form a stereo pair. In stereo mode, the Homepod's low frequencies are more shocking, the midrange separation is also much improved, and the detailed performance of instruments and vocals is even better.
 
The biggest shortcoming of Homepod is that it relies too much on the Apple ecosystem, the music services that Siri can mobilize are limited to Apple Music and Podcasts, and music on other platforms can only be played manually through Airplay, and Homepod does not support Android devices, so it is more recommended for Apple users to buy.
