Mastering Apple HomePod: The Ultimate HomePod Gebruikershandleiding IOS 12

by Adidas Wilson

Het nieuwe apparaat, HomePod, biedt een gemakkelijke en verbazingwekkende manier voor Apple-gebruikers om te genieten van AirPlay, Apple Music en hun HomeKit-apparaten vanaf elke locatie te bedienen. HomePod is niet gemaakt om een ​​concurrent van Google Home of Amazon Echo te zijn, net zoals de MacBook Air niet was ontworpen om te concurreren met de netbook. Natuurlijk delen ze een aantal kenmerken. De HomePod slimme luidspreker kan bijvoorbeeld spraakgestuurd worden gebruikt en de MacBook Air is compact en lichtgewicht. HomePod is echter slechts een huishoudhulp voor $ 350; net als de MacBook was een laptopcomputer van $ 200. De Fire Phone van Amazon was niet echt een hit. Alexa moest daarom veel verkopen, zodat Prime in meer mensenlevens kon blijven. Dit was een succes, dankzij de prijsbewuste Echo. Google, aan de andere kant, heeft een briljante beslissing genomen om in hun voetsporen te treden omdat het zijn onverzadigbare data dorst moest stillen. Wat HomePod betreft, was iets een beetje anders. De AirPod is ontworpen om u onderweg van uw favoriete muziek te laten genieten terwijl HomePod werd ontworpen om u op uw gemak bij het luisteren naar uw favoriete muziek thuis te laten genieten. AirPods miste draden en voldoende oppervlakte voor traditionele knoppen. Daarom was de Siri-stembesturing de enige manier om met de gadget om te gaan, je moet in de buurt van het apparaat zijn.
