Review on Smart column Apple HomePod mini, gray space by Agata Warda ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

I was surprised by the quality for the price.

Because I have a lot of doubts about the validity of such acoustics, at first I didn't even consider the possibility that I would write for this column. But after looking at the video and reading the evaluations, I've come to the conclusion that I want to give it a shot. I purchased it on the market for a price that was just little higher than the usual, but the kit came with a 2022 plug, which is used throughout Europe. By the sound. It took me by complete surprise. Despite the fact that the device is so compact and there does not appear to be any obvious location from where the sound could be emanating, the sound is in fact quite pleasant and abundant. Even if you talk in a calm voice with a loud speaker playing in the background, Siri is able to hear you quite well since she is incredibly responsive. Everything operates well and to one's convenience. The use of 2022 Siri alone is not always sufficient to make the management of a smart home more convenient; therefore, you need to rename your devices to English so that she can comprehend them. Do not, on the other hand, be concerned about the fact that she can only communicate in English and that this may present some difficulties. To engage in conversation with the column, you need an English proficiency equivalent to that of a student in elementary school (Play some music, Set alarm at. and so on). The ambient sound is a very good addition to the game. You have the option of asking Siri to play the sound of a campfire, night, the ocean, or rain, all of which are wonderful choices for the background. Especially in the late afternoon and evening. The "raise the iPhone to transfer playback" function does not work, but this is because the U1 chip that Apple uses is not yet certified in the 2022 standard. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause (AirTarg uses the same one, by the way). But, the Apple TV connection function works wonderfully, and I am even considering purchasing a second column of the same kind in order to make a stereo pair. In general, the device is quite fascinating to consider. Although it is not as intelligent as Alice, it is fully compatible with the Apple eco-system and, most significantly, there are no concerns whatsoever regarding the quality of the sound. Because the column is a standalone device, I was finally able to start listening to music more frequently and find something new to enjoy for myself. This was made possible by the fact that you do not need to open a poppy or any other devices in order to turn it on. I was delighted with the braided wire and the power supply that came with the kit (I hope that Apple will start using these everywhere). If you are interested in giving it a shot, I can't recommend this item strongly enough!

Pros
  • Sound Design Integration into the Apple eco-system Braided wire was incorporated in the power supply Work speed
Cons
  • There are still instances in which 2022 Siri does not receive sufficient support. To this day, transferring music from an iPhone via Touch has not been successful (albeit this is not Apple's responsibility).

I hope that Siri will finish learning and will be at the level of the iPhone.

Got pros: Sound quality is top notch Cons below: Requires WiFi connection Despite the built-in Bluetooth, it will not work. This is Apple.
