Perhaps they will turn that into a true intercom feature rather than just an audio messaging feature, which seems rather lame IMO.
I had to laugh at how they tried to spin the omission of chargers and earpods from the iPhone boxes as “saving the environment”.  Yeah right! They are just being cheap... |
The Homepod mini was the standout for me, especially as I was brinking on getting an Echo Dot. Yes, it costs more, but I’m already into Apple and only subbed to Amazon Prime, with one Kindle I rarely use... bit of a no brainer. I could never justify the expense of the original Homepod but this Mini might just do it for me.
The iPhones look nice, too, but I think I will wait and see what turns up next year.
