HomePod

The biggest brain
ever in a speaker.

An Apple-designed A8 chip orchestrates all the remarkable audio innovations inside HomePod.
Like advanced signal processing so Siri can hear you over the music.
Real-time studio-level processing that maximizes the bass while minimizing distortion.
Buffering that’s even faster than real time.
And upmixing of both direct and ambient audio.
You get amazing sound, every single time.
