      @Tech J 37 BS Siri is the dumbest virtual assistant ever, Quote (you’ll have to unlock your iphone first, I can’t answer that on HomePod.

    But does it have an audio out jack?

    • Connor K

      *genuine question: For what purpose?

    • Dave Silver

      October 13, 2020 at 8:49 pm

      @Connor K to feed it to better speakers without messing with Bluetooth. That’s one of the big flaws with the google minis Amazon has audio out on almost every device. Amazon is selling a dot for 19 dollars right now It would cost me 200 dollars to get stereo out of these and I’m stuck with the tiny speakers.

    Yeah it’s a breakthrough speaker, but will it sync with the regular HomePod? That’s a question that should have been answered in this event.
