by Ajit Jain Business Development Manager

The rapid development of technology has ushered a spate of innovative gadgets in the market. No other company in the world makes the tech savvy people so charged with anticipation as the very famous Apple Inc. The Apple Homepod is another inventive gadget that has allured people from all across the world. The launching of innovative HomePod speaker has rocked the world. This is a major breakthrough in technology offered by Apple. Even though similar products were launched by other companies, it is the first time Apple has made a foray into this territory.

The launching announcement of Apple Homepod was made at the tech giant's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) in San Jose, California. The Company grabbed the opportunity to announce the release window: December 2017. After days of speculation, Apple has recently announced a brilliant voice-activated loudspeaker. This speaker is powered by its virtual assistant Siri. The giant tech company has again delivered a great device that will make this brand lead the market. Ben Wood, an industry analyst at CCS rightly remarked "It's a logical step for Apple, to ensure that they don't miss the opportunity to get a smart device right in the center of people's homes,". The company has launched HomePod with its main emphasis as a music player. It can do activities such as play a certain song or album on command. What actually makes the HomePod stand out tall amidst competition is its magnificent sound quality.

Distinct design

The developers of this device have aptly created a cylindrical design for the HomePod. What makes the HomePod really distinctive is that it is equipped with a smart, Siri-powered speaker. HomePod will be available in White or Space Grey. It stands little less than 7 inches tall, and is almost covered in a "seamless 3D mesh fabric”. There is space only at the top of the Siri interface which is a small screen that instantly lights up with a Siri waveform as she assists you with something. HomePod also features a big, Apple-designed woofer which offers deep and a clean bass.

A powerful home assistant

The Siri-enabled speaker will be able to instantly respond to voice commands as well as play music, or set alarms, set a reminder, or answer queries, or check the weather, in addition to searching for information online. There are six microphones incorporated into the top ring of the gadget. It can catch up your voice from any part of the room, even with music being played. Siri waveform will instantly appear on the top section when she's responding to one of your queries. The HomePod can be integrated with your other home kit compatible appliances. An unadulterated and pure high-frequency acoustics is delivered and that too with incredible directional control. It will connect to Apple Music and all of other Apple services to serve as a home assistant.

Amazing sound quality

Apple has successfully positioned HomePod as a superb music gadget first and foremost. This is infact a complete contrast to the approach of Google which advocated and publicized its Home speaker as an important day-to-day assistant for varied aspects of your everyday life. Apple has indeed launched the world's most-hyped Bluetooth speaker. Most of the home assistant devices are basically voice-controlled speakers, and thus it is an intelligent move on the part of Apple for dedicating lots of effort into making the device sound great. Besides this, the HomePod also provides awareness of your individual music preferences and tastes. It also helps the users to explore and discover new music. The wireless speaker infact delivers superb audio quality. It makes use of spatial signals in order to sense its location in a given room. The HomePod speaker exhibits instant responsiveness and automatically adjusts the audio accordingly.

Conclusion

HomePod will be available starting from December, initially in the UK, US and Australia. The thriving company has once again proved that it is a leader in offering sophisticated computerized gadgets. It is true to its reputation as a creator of highly intuitive, and high-end luxury products which justify a heavy price tag.

Apple has ultimately made its mark in the smart home speaker business with the launching of HomePod, the launching of HomePod has captured the interest of millions of users worldwide. The powerful and highly refined technologies are used so as to preserve the superb responsiveness of the device.
