the latest from Apple HomePod smart speaker It's on sale for $285 at B&H Photo. It's not a huge discount or the lowest price yet, but the largest Siri-enabled speaker rarely goes on sale, and the deal applies to both the white and black speakers.
The speaker arrived in early 2023 and we gave it a score of 84 in our review last year. It works well with other Apple devices and services, and we found the sound to be richer than smart speakers from Amazon and Google, but it's also much more expensive. If all you're looking for is a smart speaker with good sound quality, you might want to go for the Sonos Era 100 although that speaker is not for sale and only works with Alexa voice assistance. If you prefer to interact with Siri and want full sound, this HomePod deal is a good bet.
