Apple products have long conquered the market. The brand has millions of fans around the world. Not only smartphones and tablets from a well-known manufacturer are popular, but also high-quality speakers. Let's take a closer look at the review of Apple speakers and find out how to choose them.

Peculiarities

Apple speakers are very popular among modern consumers who choose only high-quality and reliable technology. The brand is famous for the highest quality of its products, which attracts users of all ages. Apple is also pleased with the fact that it is constantly improving its products, updating them, making them more functional. Today, Apple speakers are more in demand and relevant than ever. Let's get acquainted with the main features of these devices.

  • Apple releases exceptionally high quality technology, which is designed for many years of operation. This also applies to branded speakers.
  • Amazes and build quality of Apple speakers. They are assembled so meticulously that you will not find a single flaw in their design. Of course, we are talking about original products, and not about another copy, of which there are a lot on sale.
  • Apple produces smart speakers that are highly functional. Such devices perform many tasks, thus maintaining an active interest from consumers.
  • It is impossible not to note the corporate minimalistic design of Apple... The products of a well-known brand are mainly made in a strict and laconic, but very attractive way.
  • Modern Apple speakers boast good sound quality without unnecessary noise and distortion.

If you decide to buy an Apple speaker, you should consider that the shops too often come across non-original devices made by Chinese "craftsmen". Such a technique will never be as high quality and durable, even if it looks the same as the original.

Apple appliances are much more expensive than similar devices from other well-known brands. Often it is this factor that repels consumers from buying the products of the manufacturer in question.

The lineup

Apple makes high-quality tech that does a great job of its core functions. The same can be said about the column of this brand, which is called the HomePod. It is a popular music device that attracts customers with its superior sound quality. According to the owners of this column, it is very simple and straightforward to operate and configure. This model has a voice assistant Apple Siri. The column supports Bluetooth version 5.0. The device is powered from the mains.

HomePod is a smart speaker with 7 highest quality tweeters and 1 woofer... There is support for streaming services. The laconic device is distinguished by the presence of a touch surface for control, it supports Wi-Fi MIMO network. The device has built-in Apple A8 processes. The device of a small speaker has a subwoofer, "looking" upwards. Due to its work, deep and clear bass reproduction is guaranteed. The sound is reproduced almost without distortion. This quality especially pleases music lovers who "listen" to electronic or rock music.

And also HomePod is equipped with 6 microphones. They are distributed evenly around the center of the Apple device. These components form a special directional diaphragm.They can scan the surrounding space, after which the gadget adapts the sound directions based on where it is (in the central part of the room, near a wall or on a separate shelf). The HomePod speaker has the ability to redirect sound exclusively forward, on different sides, diagonally or in all directions at once (this effect is achieved by placing the speaker in the very center of the room).

It is worth considering in detail the external performance of this "smart" column. It has a cylindrical structure. You can choose a black or white model... Of course, Apple's black speakers turn out to be more practical, since they are more difficult to stain or remove dirt from their surface without leaving noticeable marks.

Snow-white HomePod models often remain pristine and attractive for a short time - you have to constantly monitor their cleanliness.

The HomePod case does not have any additional decorations or decorations - the design of the gadget is devoid of any frills and variegation. If you look at the picture or photo that shows the HomePod speaker, it can seem quite large and massive. In fact, this is a compact wireless device with such modest dimensions as:

  • height - 172 mm;
  • diameter - 142 mm.

The weight of the fashionable gadget from Apple is only 2.5 kg. For a multifunctional speaker, you can quickly find a suitable place in the room, since it does not require a lot of free space.

HomePod can be easily moved from one place to another, because the column has a modest weight and the user does not have to spend extra energy on transportation. HomePod pleases music lovers with the fact that it is complemented by a special system responsible for suppressing echoes during the playback of audio tracks. Of course, it will not be possible to completely remove the echo, but it is minimized, which is also noticeable.

Important! In the near future, the release of new models is planned - HomePod 2 and HomePod mini. At the moment, these devices are still under development, but it is assumed that they will be more functional, updated.

How to choose?

If you decide to purchase a quality speaker from Apple, of course, you can wait for the latest models, but you can also buy the HomePod, which is sold in stores today. Let's consider how to select such a technique and what to look for.

  • Choose your preferred HomePod speaker color... It has already been indicated above what the dark options are good for - they are less easily soiled. If you want to buy a white speaker, then you must be prepared for the fact that you have to constantly monitor its cleanliness, otherwise it will look completely unattractive.
  • It is recommended to buy such equipment for those people who live in a kind of Apple ecosystem. HomePod was designed with just such users in mind - subscribers to Apple Music, which is HomeKit compatible. If you are not a fan of Apple technology and are skeptical about it, do not spend money. On sale you can find a lot of branded portable and wireless speakers of this type, but at a more affordable cost.

If you decide to purchase a really high-quality and original speaker manufactured by the Apple brand, you should go to buy it in a specialty store where the equipment of the American brand is sold. Here you will definitely not stumble upon a well-executed replica that is indistinguishable from the original. With the device, you can get all the necessary documentation that will confirm its origin.

It is highly discouraged to buy your HomePod from questionable stores or the market. Of course, in such places, you are likely to find a copy that costs much less, and the seller will convince you of its authenticity. Here you will not be able to provide supporting technical documentation.

Do not trust surprisingly low prices and the persuasion of unscrupulous traders.
