Good morning, I have one HomePod, and plan to get two more this Friday. Best Buy is going to have them for $100 off.
I agree with everything said above about the HomePod. But all I had one other item. Security, you can rest assured your data and privacy are protected with the Apple environment. The other platforms cannot say that. Well they like to say it, but history has shown your privacy is of little importance to them. I also use the HomePod as my home kit hub. I control lights and motion sensors throughout my house. And Addmore things as time and budget permits.
