Apple does not even sell HomePods here due to the lack of Czech Siri, but e-shops rely on their own distribution. Because of it, however, the prices are a little higher than they should be, and at the same time, they are not very often in discounts.
But on Smarty.cz today they reduced the price of the second generation HomePod introduced this year by a thousand. It’s worth it 7990 CZK. It hasn’t been cheaper yet, even though the previous generation already cost around seven thousand.
The second one has a slightly redesigned design, different speakers (and there are fewer of them), but it still sounds the same. Inside, however, we find the newer S7 chip known from the Watch Series 7 and with it also new functions. First of all, it is UWB for locating iPhones. AirPods and AirTags. HomePod also understands the IoT network Thread and the Matter protocol. It also contributes to a smart home by containing a thermometer and a hygrometer. In addition, it can also recognize sirens from CO detectors and smoke detectors.
