Same old iMac design is really disappointing. A new design is the ONLY thing I really wanted.
How exactly would you want it changes?
Really isn't all that you can do to improve the design.

One of the most underwhelming WWDCs ever though, I'd say. The HomePod looks okay, but they really needed to swallow their pride and price it as low as possible. Echo is massively popular because of how damn cheap it is.
It's always good practice to judge something without having actually tested it first.
Apple smashed it. Great job!
How long have you been following Apple? Apple's MO has never been to compete on price. If this device has superior sound quality then it should be more expensive.One of the most underwhelming WWDCs ever though, I'd say.

All of this machine learning focus when SIRI and Spotlight are so terrible, it sounds like just marketing to me. I really hope there is some engineering behind it, but if so, why are SIRI and Spotlight so bad?
They need to integrate other services. Google is on the right track on that front with the Chromecast AudioAudio Quality (if it is as good as they say) may justify it for some (okay me) . Though that is a super valid point you make!
Racism and sexism. That's what the issues are. But they'll place the blame on something else.She's a Harvard Law grad and she's speaking on empowerment. What's the issue?
At $349 this will not sound like a Play 5.
No that's for the best you can possibly buy for no price limit, and it costs more then that too.
The majority will be happy with Sonos quality levels, oh and B&W is included in the super high end mega expensive premium pricing tower speakers.
Absolutely a bust!!! No iPhone announcement and they announced things that are already being marketed by other companies!Apple smashed it. Great job!
The Play:1 is kind of the step into multi-room option. I have one in two rooms in my house.
As an avid Sonos and Apple user, I find it hard to justify putting in a HomePod if it doesn't integrate with my existing hardware.People are using Amazon devices to control their whole homes, and at $39, you can put an echo dot in every room if you want. HomePod will hurt SONOS, but isn't going to displace Amazon's lead in the smart speaker space. I wonder if a HomePod Express / HomePod Mini is in the works?
Watching the 2007 keynote on YouTube?
I would hope it's sarcasm! I thought Tim Cooke was going to say iPhone when he said #6. I was in shock when it ended with no iPhone announcement!This...this is sarcasm, right??
Sonos is adding Alexa support soon, supposedly. If I can set up a couple of echo dots or an echo in my house in addition to the giant pile of Sonos speakers I have, that's a much better option than this is.I have the Sonos all over, 2 play:1s, playbar & sub, 2 play:5s, so a HomePod wouldn't work for me unless you can attach it to your Sonos system using a Sonos connect.
