The Homepod looks cool and useful. I like to wait until they make a new model. If its features aren't something I'd use often, I can buy the older version at a cheaper price with the same warranty.
That's probably a smart way to go about it, Madison. I love the idea of having a smart audio system, but there's no denying that the more features a product has, the more potential there is for bugs and technical issues. Knowing Apple, there will be a new version released soon that won't be all that different.
