it looks pretty impressive on the inside. google and amazon ones look cheaply made.

its a verry good 1~!

Its hardware is definetly better performance and its better built than the competition. Although, siri sucks and wouldnt integrate with any of my devices (i feel like apple will make this propietary with their new home app) and even though its better built its over 3 times the price of google home and nearly twice the price of amazon echo. So no i wont be buying one.

>muh looks good inside
what the fuck is that even mean? what fucking normie would ever need to look inside this?
You need to get fucked and your families cleansed, cannot believe such turds are allowed to live and breathe on this world
And this crap is worse than the Amazon or the Google one, because Siri is a piece of shit software and is not fed with near as much data as the ones by the other two.
Kindly fuck you

I'm assuming it'll be as shitty as the Apple TV, so no.

>>60832402
I didn't say it looked good you retard

>>60832084
Why is every fucking tech company making these stupid gimmick boxes? Why the hell do they think it's sensible to make them cost more than the price of a raspberry pi? It's like a shitty smartphone without a screen that you can't take with you.

"durr u can buy shit with it and all u hav 2 do is talk ur desires"
I can do that with my fucking phone already. Do I really want to pay money for something just to keep me from having to put shit down and whip out my phone?

Stuff it in Uranus, bb. ;^))))

Fuck off Rakesh.

>>60832402
Im not the original poster. However thats incredibly fukcing ignorant. "your looking at the specification and the build quality fuck you, you stupid normie cunt" ~ stupid fucker on 4chan who disregards a product just because of the brand.

Already preordered mine, cant wait :D

>>60833453
alexa listens to you talking to your friend about how awesome the new gtx1080 is
amazon purchases adspace from google, most websites you visit show you gtx1080s on offer at amazon -> you click on one and buy it
or you mention a gtx1080 while talking to alexa it asks you "do you want to purchase this item on amazon" you just say yes because whatever you where going to buy it anyways so might as well save some time

it obviously isn't that simple in reality, but a game of numbers and probabilities, if 100mio people use their service and spend each $1000/month they only need to influence 0.1% of purchase decisions to make over a billion more every year

I'll buy a home assistant when there is one who doesn't have to phone home for speech recognition.

How accurate is this?

>>60834379
Homepod has a 4" woofer. Nothin that size comes close.

Apple was beaten to the punch years ago. Just because Apple now has one doesn't mean they're the first.

As in targeted ads. I have no problem with targeted ads. Ive never bought something from one. I make my own decisions about wether i need something or not.

I'm honestly hungry to waste some money on a new tech toy, but these things are beyond my understanding. They literally try to solve non-existant problems.

Sometimes I wonder how much the out-of-touch marketing departments who come up with these products get paid. Probably vast sums of money for designing and pushing products like smart watches, 3D TV and now these ugly data-mining living room monoliths which are obviously never going to catch on.

>>60838225
>prime goal of a business is making practically useful products and not generating profits
lmaoing @ you. marketing people deserve every cent they get.

>>60838151
>muh botnet
not the point. Apple lied saying they were the first.
Companies lie all the time.
Hyundai got in trouble a few years ago when they lied about the Elantra's fuel economy.
And they lied saying the Veloster was the first 3 door coupe (like the Saturn SC2 never existed 15 years prior)

>>60836576
It doesn't sound like shit( I am serious it's above sonos sound quality from the first reviews).
We still don't know much about the software. I seriously hope for a great integration with tablet/phones because I hate AI asistants.

>>60838647
If they lie you can sue them.
>Profit

>>60838765
no one really has the time or budget to do that. Suing them over that is a long drawn out process, and you have to prove that their lies negatively impacted you in some way.
Why the fuck do you think John Hennessey or Donald Trump aren't in jail on multiple counts of fraud?

>>60832167
They are way cheaper though. I rather spend that money on a good non-meme sound system.

>>60838225

>never going to catch on

Are you high? The Echo sold like fucking crazy. Why do you think everyone started imitating it? When the price of the Echo drops by $30, they immediately go on back-order for *months*.

>>60838225
it's probably just for brand recognition

>>60832167
It's a speaker with a mic and a processor connected to the internet
Every other assistant doesn't show the internals because you never need to see them

>>60839824
>a speaker is just a speaker and they are all equal

>>60832402
I wont be getting one, and Im not a huge apple fan for reasons, but those reasons aren't build quality. Having something look nice and reasonably well thought out internally shows an attention to detail and speaks to the quality of craftsmanship/engineering throughout. Usually cheap chink shit looks like cheap chink shit on the inside.

Either way though idk why the fuck anyone would get that

Then hook it up to another speaker via bluetooth or chromecast. Not a very great argument you have here.

>>60832084
that piece of shit looks way too small to put out any decent sound
only a fool would buy it

>>60832235
This is the main issue. There are only like 6 products right now that are compatible with apple homekit.

>>60832084
Yes, but can it routinely broadcast soothing reminders that Big Brother loves and is watching me?

>>60838199
>5 year old phones still working fine
No, they don't, try using one. Everyone on an iPhone 5/5s I know complain about lag. I convinced a couple to buy a Redmi 4 Prime when I told them my phone lasted 3 days easily.

>>60832084

What do you even do with this ? It's completelly useless.

If you want to play music, just get a sonos.

>>60844553
>Everyone on an iPhone 5/5s I know complain about lag.
If they didn't you'd say the new phones are no faster. The newer versions of iOS have more functonality. They need more grunt. If you want speed on old hardware use a back-level OS.

I wish the mods would delete these threads but then again I'm pretty sure 4chan's current management works with advertising companies already

>>60832084
I'll order one as soon as they're available. Always wanted one of these things.

Amazon Echo always scared me since they give data to courts.

Why not use an ordinary bluetooth speaker hooked to your phone?

I guess the ifag crowd just have to keep spending.

Not possible. Learn HS physics again.

Why would I let this botnet into my home? Fuck Apple.

can you use it without any other apple devices?

can I buy it, plonk it on my desk and ask it questions?

what even is the purpose of this shit?

I'm not sure I get it really, its just a bluetooth speaker. Theres a million of those already.

At least the alexa and google had an AI assistant in theirs, this is just a bluetooth speaker. A good one, maybe, but theres plenty of good ones

This.
But also I kinda understand apple. I mean the software is there, the case is probably canibalized from all the Mac pros in stock since absolutely no sane person would buy one now after the iMac pro got announced. So yeah, why not?
