Apple's VP of hardware engineering Matthew Costello and product marketing employee Alice Chan talked about the new HomePod 2.
As you may know, the HomePod 2 looks very similar to its predecessor but has a few internal and external changes. For example, it has a larger edge-to-edge LED touchscreen on top, and from the inside, it has fewer tweeters and microphones – although some reviewers said its sound is still better than its predecessor.
With the S7 chip, the same available on the Apple Watch Series 7, some users noted that it supports an old generation Wi-Fi version . Apple VP says this isn’t a problem: “HomePod features Wi-Fi 4 connectivity that allows us to target exactly what works best in the entire system, making sure Siri requests are responsive, and ensuring a consistent experience for all you are listening to, controlling your smart home accessories and more — all while being energy efficient.”“When creating a stereo pair, it’s important that the audio characteristics match for an optimal, balanced experience.
Chan, on the other hand, acknowledges the challenges the first iteration of the HomePod suffered and why Apple decided to bet on a bigger size again two years after discontinuing the 2018 model: “We’ve taken all the learnings from the original HomePod as well as HomePod mini and applied them to the new HomePod,” shared Chan.
