Consumer Reports says Google Home Max looks better than Apple HomePod

If you've read the reviews for the Apple HomePod smartphone right now, many reviews agree that this device offers a great audio experience, and that the audio experience in this device looks better than some competing devices, including Sonos One and Google Home Max. However, Consumer Reports does not think so, it says the opposite in its review of Apple HomePod.

According to the Consumer Reports report, the Sonos One and Google Home Max devices actually look better than the Apple HomePod. The full results of the test are expected to be published in the next few weeks, but based on their findings so far, they say the Sonos One and Google Home Max devices look better than Apple's smart speaker.

The report says: "The bass in the Apple HomePod was a bit high and overpriced. The middle tones are somewhat blurry, which means that some subtle variations in vocals, guitars, and horns are missing, and these are elements of music that can not be heard as they are in high-rated speakers. Tri-sounds like cymbals were a little stressed. "

These are indeed interesting notes, especially when the former CEO and co-founder of Sonos acknowledges that the Apple HomePod speaker looks better compared to the Sonos One. There was also an analysis by some music experts themselves, and they found that Apple HomePod was actually upgrading sound technology. But for every taste of his own, there are also some who consider the high bass a bad thing, while there are some who might prefer a superficial and neutral sound.
