‘Apple discontinues original HomePod, will focus on mini’
I’m a little late in commenting on this news, reported first by Matthew Panzarino at TechCrunch:
Apple has discontinued its original HomePod after four years. It says that it will continue to produce and focus on the HomePod mini, introduced last year.
I love the way my HomePod sounds, and I don’t get as annoyed as others seem to be with Siri. So this news makes me sad even though I wasn’t in the market to buy another. I hope that, whatever Apple does next with the HomePod family, it doesn’t abandon the supremely good sound that the full-size HomePod produces.
