Apple has marked a date for the arrival of its entry to the smart speaker space that is currently dominated by Google and Amazon, the HomePod. Like its competitors, it's a voice-controlled smart speaker that works with a virtual assistant, in this case -- Siri. The user can use Siri on the HomePod to do things such as send messages, set timers and reminders, check for weather, news, and sports updates, and stream music from an Apple Music subscription. When using Apple Music with the HomePod, users are able to do all the usual things like asking for specific songs to be played, but it has a little more to offer. Naturally, it is compatible with Apple's HomeKit smart-home automation products that range from lights and sensors, to switches and security systems. As for hardware, the HomePod uses Apple-engineered audio tech. This is then rounded out by the inclusion of an Apple A8 chip for its software integration that allows the HomePod to do things like real-time acoustic modeling and echo cancellation.
