Amazing insight into advertising there.
So if you can already do that, why on earth would any company that made stereo equipment want to advertise their products?
Got a tip for us?

Just relax already, continue rationalising your (upcoming) purchase, no need for double quoting, you continue with your delusions and interpretations and I'll continue with mein.
The mere fact on how you jumped and debated my opinion is telling.
So many miserable people in here. Maybe go listen to some music to cheer you up.
Great advert - loved it.
And now we have an explanation for those really flaky homepod adverts that were part of the marketing package at launch - they looked like they were cobbled together in about 5 mins by an intern...... probably because they were. Seriously, how do you spend millions on a fantastic advert like this - and then not have it ready at launch?
The homepod looks like a great product to me - but it's clear that it was launched late (missing Christmas), without it's full functionality, and without even without this "headline" part of the marketing package being ready.

I have a feeling this is foreshadowing some of the ways we’ll interact with AR.
Yeah I thought just the opposite. I found it annoying and not really selling the home pod at all.

this was my thinking exactly... kinda found the "commercial" annoying.
got my HomePod today single life couldn't be any better haha
No, not quite done with it. You had to add a comment on here, so you're still talking about it.
So who said advertising doesn't work.
I really don't enjoy the 'dark' look to all the Apple ads lately. At least this one tried to do a bit with some color in the AR-ish scenes. But for me, the ad really did nothing due to the music choice. Just didn't connect with me. Might be for a younger crowd.
Anyway, I love my HomePod. The funniest thing about watching this ad is that Siri on my HomePod started playing music I'd like when she said it at the start of the ad. Hilarious/scary/annoying.

A bigger place means you need to buy more stuff to fill it up with.

It worked on me.
7 pages of posts and I am supprised no one has mentioned what Siri started playing for them when the actress asked for Siri to “play something I like”.
I was watching the add on the laptop next to my HomePod, and Siri said ”Ok, Here is some Motörhead” was kind of funny and I did indeed like it...

Opinion isn't news, I'm predicting 10M, not stating they've sold 10M...
So, you'll pulling a good ol' straw man.
And the people stating this thing isn't selling ARE the ones stating this as a fact (not even an opinion)
(like most Apple Doom "artists".).
Come back to see me at the end of the year and we'll see how right I am.
Bet you won't. Until then, peddle your FUD in front of someone else.

Telling of what, that I dislike dollar store psychologists and that threw that back in your face with the delusion bit.
And you did it again in the last sentence. Go play with yourself, not answering your "deep thoughts" again.
Her rent just went from 1200 per month to 5000 per month.
After watching this clip and if I was just casually watching TV without thinking it was about the HomePod, I'd probably ask at the end, "That was a commercial for what?" First thought would've been Apple Music. It's the same feeling as some of those Superbowl commercials where they tell you how great America is with football/fishermen/cowboys and ends with the Dodge Ram.
In that sense, it captivates me how many people are captivated by this ad.

Yeah, mine started playing Miles Davis. Was funny. Apple should really add a tiny sound just before the "Hey Siri" in the ad that would tell Siri to ignore it. I think Amazon did that.
Fine by me, no need to struggle in having the last word.
Also, just stick to your opinions don't jump on others.
Boom! That's it right there! The ad would have raised your awareness and made you think and ask... Job done!
Bet you won't. Until then, peddle your FUD in front of someone else.
