It's all but confirmed that Apple's been working on a Max version of their HomePod speaker. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo mentioned earlier this year that Apple has internally developed their larger HomePod model, but has held back on releasing it - with a hopeful debut by or before 2024.

    I’m looking for something like that, I currently have an apple tv connected to 2 homepod mini, I had several audio sync issues but since early 2023 after all the app updates (especially twitch and youtube) & apple software updates fixed them for good.

    Looking for a bigger HomePod update to have 2.1 sound system both for the Apple TV & Music, since the big original homepod is, imho, on the verge of being replaced for me (new bluetooth chipsets etc), I’m waiting for its successor

    I was just saying the other day that I really want to get rid of my Echo (Alexa is annoying AF) and wanted Apple to release a decent and affordable Homepod. I guess that’s not the direction they’re going in though 😭😭😭

    Recently picked up HomePod mini brand new for $50. Honestly really decent.

    I live in an apartment so there’s only so much automation I can do, but it works awesome with HomeKit. I automated my lights and fan, works like a charm. Magic handoff is awesome too

    If owned a house I’d definitely place HomePods all over the place, with HomePod max being in living room or something

    I bought a single original HomePod a few years ago and now I don’t really know what to do with it. I still use it as a speaker with the Apple TV, but they discontinued the original so soon after I bought it that it actually feels like the most wasted Apple Purchase I ever had. I’d like to improve my TV system and maybe mount it to the wall, but not really sure what I want to do with the homepod yet.

    I hope they release some Homekit-driven hardware to give them cause to make homekit stable. It’s so unreliable. Latest iOS update broke my entire setup and it’s still not right weeks later.
