A million people don’t just listen to memes and get what they think is best, yes.A million people bought that? Wow

Because:
1. Siri is limited
2. Pricy compared to other smart speakers (not necessarily to other high end dump speaker tho).
I’m sure a HomePod mini is coming at some point.A lot of people don't care about music quality enough to spend $350 on a speaker. I think if they managed to come up with a good $150 speaker they would sell like hotcakes.
More like people buying what they enjoy actually..people don’t buy things for the sake of it. They buy things that they enjoy.A lot of people with money to burn.
Why not spin negative spins? The category Apple reports the HomePod a part of grew, but it’s now believe by a random person outside of apple that it’s lower than the original guess. I’ll stick with Apple on this. Every time they have been happy with initial sales, from the iPod to the IPhone X analysts have made up low numbers and they always looked stupid when Apple decided to start releasing info. They never want the competition to know how popular what they are doing different really is until it’s too late. It’s why it usually takes 2-3 years for competitors to catch up. It forces them to spread their resources instead of just taking what is working for Apple and running with it. By the time they realize it, Apple has secured a significant targeted sales volume and the copiers can’t really hurt them. Even if competitors come and get more market share, they will still grow along with the market and Control the profitable high end of the market.Uh oh, negative news. Can't. Resist. The urge. To spin. And downplay.![]()
The “Apple” really does sound interesting. Before I dive into their product catalog and history, you wouldn’t happen to know if there are any rumor sites dedicated to the Apple products, would you? I could envision myself wasting hours there…It’s a speaker. Made by Apple. Apple is an American based consumer electronics company. They make some really cool smart phones, tablets and computers. You should check them out.
Why are we still comparing the HomePod to a 50$ Echo? It’s a voice assistant “speaker” versus a real music speaker that also has Siri.

Same reason you're only mentioning the $50 Echo in your comment. Narrative. 'Cept I'd say they're a little less disingenuous in their comparison. At least they're comparing the sales of the entire smart speaker market. Unlike you, who self selected the most disparately priced Echo sku to compare vs the HomePod.Why are we still comparing the HomePod to a 50$ Echo?
