— LeaksApplePro (@LeaksApplePro) October 4, 2020 Now, the tweet talks about the apparently upcoming HomePod 2. According to the leak, the device would have a 4-inch driver. This would be so to deliver clear and loud audio since this isn’t just a smart speaker like the smaller Google Home Mini. Now, over to the price, the speaker would come out for $299. This is still a pretty expensive territory. Apple has made strides with its sales in the previous two years by cutting down on prices: case in point, the iPhone XR, the iPhone 11 and the iPhone SE. The list goes on. Anyway, the speaker would also have an A10 processor, this would be an upgrade from the existing A8 chipset in the HomePod right now. Coming back to the pricing again, Apple would have to reduce the price if they want to make a mark with their smart speaker. The speaker currently has no special features, per se, for the average consumer to get it. Perhaps Apple adds something special this time around to actually make this product matter. Lastly, according to the tweet, the speaker would be available in the first quarter of 2021.
