News & Reviews:   Homepod

Voice assistants have been around for years, but most people don't really use them that often. Of course, that hasn't stopped Apple from wanting to improve Siri. In fact, the company has filed a new patent for environmentally aware voice assistants.

If you recall, there was a rumour claiming that Apple is developing new HomePods. The new models are expected to feature a screen and a camera. Well, we may just have an idea what these would be used for in the latest tvOS update.

If you recalled, it was previously rumoured that Apple could discontinue the HomePod. Instead, the company is expected to focus on developing the HomePod Mini. Now, sources claim that the company has been working on new HomePod models.

When the original HomePod was unveiled by Apple in 2018, it came with a few issues ranging from poor audio quality to staining surfaces the product was placed on. With that in mind, a report by TechCrunch seems to suggest that Apple will officially discontinue the original smart speaker and instead focus on the new HomePod Mini which is priced significantly more affordable than its predecessor.

While we wait in anticipation for Apple's annual event in September, rumours have been flying around that the company could separate into two events - one for accessories and the other for the iPhones. Now, new reports from Bloomberg are sharing a more detailed launching plan and here's what we know so far about the upcoming iPhone products.
