Pros

• Apple redefined SIRI and made it more functional in HomePod with great voice recognition capability

• The HomeKit comes along with HomePod can help interconnectivity and streaming between other Apple products.

Cons

• Siri is not able to search neither the web nor Bluetooth streaming. It cannot control your Apple TV or iPhone directly from the speaker. HomePod has woofer with custom amplifier, an array of seven horn-loaded tweeters and a six-microphone array for far-field Siri. The internal low-frequency calibration microphone for automatic bass correction is an added attraction.
• It has no stereo sound system. The AirPlay, especially for third-party music, has limited functionality.
• Compared to Alexa, the connectivity of HomePod to other gadgets outside that of Apple is limited.
• The Apple HomePod is around 7-inches tall (6.8-inches to be exact) and 5.6 inches wide and weighs 2.5 kg is bit pricey at $349
