The Rebirth of HomePod

With the original HomePod having been discontinued in March 2021, Apple’s new model is as much a rebirth as it is a new product. The general form factor and dimensions of HomePod Gen.2 remain almost the same as its predecessor with the addition of midnight as a color made with 100% recycled mesh fabric.

The real changes are what is inside and what the new unit can do. The speaker array is comprised of a 20mm high-excursion woofer and a beam forming array of five tweeters around the base of the unit. The older A8 chip in the Gen.1 model has been updated to a new S7 chip which, along with other system and component design updates over the original version.
