Outstanding product at a solid price. Completely underrated that doesn’t see enough recognition.

What's the evidence that Best Buy is "clearing out HomePod inventory" rather than simply offering a sale on the HomePod as the article notes they've done before (and as Best Buy and every other retailer does on hundreds of other items)?


A solid $99 discount? ?
Solid 99 is equal to 100, just as a baker's dozen is one more than a regular dozen. ?

Not sure where all the bad press on these keep coming from, likely people who don't have a smart home setup. I have 20+ hues, locks, cameras, and Siri works flawlessly. Great sound, beats Alexa and Google for picking up a normal speaking voice request, and my data isn't being used to create a better advertising profile!

I use mine for lighting automation and music. Very happy with them. People who are looking at it as if it's Apple's counterpart to the Dot have entirely missed the point of the product.

You couldn’t pay me 200$ to buy a homepod, it’s really useless in my world where headphones are far more useful
You do understand that if someone paid you $200 to buy a Homepod, that would be effectively someone giving you a free Homepod, right?

So what you are saying is that if someone gave you a Homepod that you wouldn't take it?

The mental gymnastics that some people on MR go to just to trash Apple never ceases to astound me.

Apple totally botched the home assistant market.

Is this just Best Buy trying to reduce inventory and drum up business?
