Yesterday we heard that some details on the new
iPhone 8 were discovered in the firmware for the new Apple HomePod speaker. Now
the firmware has revealed some more details about the HomePod speaker and some
of its hardware.
One the top of the HomePod there will be an LED
Matrix rather than just a couple of large LEDs, this would allow for the
display of shaped and synbols. We heard previously that the HomePod would come
with an Apple A8 processor and 1GB of RAM, the device will come with Apple’s
Siri built in.
Apple are launching their new HomePod in December
and it will cost US$ 349. When the device was announced, Apple focused on its
music and sound capabilities rather than its smart speaker features.
