Product details
The HomePod is a powerful speaker that sounds fantastic and adapts to its surroundings. He's an absolute music expert and combines Apple Music with Siri to learn what music you like.
And it's an intelligent home assistant that can do everyday tasks and control your smart home. The HomePod takes your listening experience to a new level. And this is just the beginning. The HomePod combines Apple-developed audio technologies and advanced software so you can experience the best hi-fi sound anywhere in the room. This compact speaker with its elegant design really rocks the house. Apple has equipped the High-Excursion woofer with a custom amplifier for a wide range of deep, rich bass. A powerful drive moves the membrane a full 20 mm - that's pretty impressive for a speaker of this size. At the same time, the HomePod uses an advanced algorithm that continuously analyzes the music and dynamically adjusts the low frequencies to create a harmonious, rich sound. The HomePod features a unique ring of seven beamforming tweeters, each with its own amplifier and sound generator. And each has a specially designed precision funnel that focuses the sound and provides excellent directional control. This creates an all-embracing feeling of space and consistent Hi-Fi sound throughout the room. Apple's A8 chip enables extremely complex audio innovations in the HomePod. For example, modelling the bass driver mechanics in real time. Buffering that is even faster than real-time. Upmixing of direct and ambient audio. Beamforming, so the microphones can hear you while the music is playing. And advanced echo cancellation. So you have fantastic sound without even thinking about it. The HomePod is enclosed in a seamless mesh fabric that has both an aesthetic and an acoustic effect. Available in white and space grey, it looks good from any angle and is almost completely permeable to music. And because the HomePod is less than 18 cm high, it fits anywhere in your home. Setting up the HomePod is quick and easy. Just plug it in and your iOS device will find it. With its room detection, the HomePod automatically adjusts for optimal sound wherever it is placed. He even hears your requests throughout the room when loud music is playing. All you have to do is enjoy the song. The HomePod is great for listening to music. He can also tell you the latest news, traffic information, sports news and the weather. Or set reminders and tasks. Send messages. Transfer phone calls. Plus, the HomePod is a hub that lets you control your Smart Home accessories, from a single lamp to the whole house - just with your voice.
