    About this ebook

    The new device, HomePod, offers an easy and amazing way for Apple users to enjoy AirPlay, Apple Music, and control their HomeKit devices from anywhere. HomePod was not created to be a competitor to Google Home or Amazon Echo, just as the MacBook Air was not designed to compete against the netbook. Of course, they do share a number of characteristics. For instance, the HomePod smart speaker can be voice-controlled and the MacBook Air is compact and lightweight. However, HomePod is just a $350 home assistant; much like the MacBook was a $200 laptop computer. The Fire Phone by Amazon was not much of a hit. Alexa, therefore, had to sell a lot so that Prime could stick into more people's lives. This was a success, thanks to the priced-to-move Echo. Google, on the other hand, made a brilliant decision to follow in the footsteps because it has to satisfy its insatiable data thirst. When it comes to HomePod, something was a little different. The AirPod was designed to help you enjoy your favorite music on the go while HomePod was designed to help you enjoy your favorite music in a convenient way in your home. AirPods lacked wires and sufficient surface area for traditional buttons. Because of this, the Siri voice control was the only way to interact with the gadget (you have to be near the device).

      Big Screen Decisions

      Feb 8, 2022

      When I started out as a custom installer back in 1998, a “big screen” was a 60-inch rear-projection TV, with high-end models available from the likes of Mitsubishi and Pioneer Elite. These were 4:3 aspect ratio, cathode ray tube-driven sets with 480i

      Watch SE Apple’s Cheaper Smartwatch Is All Most Of Us Will Ever Need

      Nov 7, 2022

      The Apple Watch SE seems to come from the idea that the original Apple Watch SE wasn’t broke, so it didn’t need fixing. Instead, Apple’s polished it, giving it a lighter-weight body, a new processor, new colours, and a price drop. If you want to kno
