I’m traumatized from HomePod mini, I would only consider buying HomePod in general if they add 3.5mm line in, otherwise I won’t take them seriously. wifi stereo never been reliable for me.
Got a tip for us?

The 11-inch for the car, the 13-inch for the house, and out-of-town air travel. I checked the refurbs, and no M4 Pros are available. If there were, I would use my Veteran discount with the Refurb discount. Could buy a new M4, but I am afraid it would ship with 26.
I upgraded from the HD (A8) model to the first 4K model (with A10X) for obvious reasons. And then again to the current model (A15) because of Thread support (HomeKit).
You've been hooked on cheap thrills by new toys.
In reality, Apple sells products people want to use.
Which is why Apple is rolling in money.
Hot take, but I think the new Apple TV will be a “Pro” model and come in at the same price as the current model, which will drop down to $99 to compete with cheaper streaming boxes. I am desperately hoping it comes soon, Apple TV is genuinely one of my most used products and I’ve been waiting to upgrade for over a year.
Standards change. The one I unplugged a few years ago after a TV upgrade is either a second or third generation. If it is the second, it only does 720P, and if it's the third, it only does 1080P at best. Now that I want to use an STB again, I don't want to go back to that.
Or maybe I'm just jealous of the screensavers in more recent models.
Bonus, when you decide the Mini is obsolete you won't have to get rid of a display that probably still works great. (The Apple Silicon iMacs don't have target display mode.) If that model ever does come out, though, you could use that display with it, too
I can't imagine trying to use the pencil or touchscreen much on a Macbook unless it's a convertible and can lie flat. Won't the screen wiggle, or your arms get tired?
The current model (which is what I have) is overkill for what the majority of Apple TV users use their devices for. I think that’s the reason Apple didn’t put an A18 Pro or A19 into it and possibly more RAM. They know the majority won’t bother with console gaming or they really would have beefed it up. Now, it’s possible we may get a new version next year if console gaming takes off and the performance limitations of the “entry-level” A17 Pro becomes an issue. I doubt it, but you never know. It looks like adding AI was their main focus with this new release.
Still waiting for this OLED MCB Pro. They keep delaying it, they just update processors.
Apple you lost the vibe of innovation. WAKE UP

Many people have an older one that is showing its age performing basic tasks, some people are upgradaholics who must have the latest shiny. Some people use them to play games.
