This is a typically weird Apple product that pops up every now and then but I actually thought that practice had died with Steve. I WANT Apple to release products like this. I want them to release many products like this. But right now everything Apple releases needs to be the next great thing and this definitely isn’t. The weird thing in this particular case is it seems Apple accepts that but they aren’t really sure they are ready to admit that.

This is by all accounts thus far an excellent speaker for music. By the standards set by other excellent speakers this may be a great competitor deal with better features than other excellent speakers. What it is not is an excellent Alexa or google home competitor or an excellent Siri assistant.

In reality, the best Alexa and google home competitor is Apple Watch.
