Podcasts about HomePod

This week, everything is a HomePod. And has ads. The Verge's Jen Pattison-Tuohy joins the show to talk about all of Amazon's new hardware, the current state of Alexa Plus, and whether the new Kindle Scribe is the one we've been waiting for. Then, The Verge's Emma Roth tells Jen and David about her experience with Telly, the TV that ships to your house for free in exchange for showing you ads all the time. Telly may not be for everyone. Finally, in the lightning round, the gang talks about a handy new Spotify feature, Emma's first Waymo ride, and the glory that is Chunk.

Then, Benjamin shares his experiences with his first week of having the iPhone Air, meanwhile online durability and battery tests show impressive results across the new iPhone lineup. Nevertheless, Apple is forced to comment on 17 Pro ‘ScratchGate', and the first iOS 26.1 beta adds some new swipe gestures in the Music app. And in Happy Hour Plus, Chance tries the new Jupiter environment in visionOS 26, as Apple previews a swathe of new third-party immersive video content in the works.

That includes Apple's unveiling of the new AirPods Pro 3, Apple Watch Series 11, iPhone 17, iPhone Air and the unmistakably orange iPhone 17 Pro series.  And in Happy Hour Plus, the pair talk about what products they are buying from this week's announcements, and some more on Chance's experience at Apple Park.

Explore Apple's post-event updates, including iPhone 17 vs iPhone Air, Apple Watch Series 11, and AirPods Pro 3. Get clear, thoughtful insights on which devices are worth buying and why.Stevhen Scott and Shaun Preece take a deep breath after Apple's latest announcements to break down what really matters. They discuss why instant reactions can be misleading, highlighting the importance of waiting for full details before making purchasing decisions. In this episode, the hosts dive into the new iPhone lineup, debating whether the iPhone 17 or the iPhone Air offers better value for blind and low-vision users. They evaluate the trade-offs in size, battery life, MagSafe support, and RAM, while also addressing Apple Intelligence requirements. AirPods Pro 3 and Apple Watch Series 11 are also under the microscope. The pair talk through smaller design tweaks, heart rate monitoring in earbuds, improved noise cancellation, and the new hypertension notifications in the watch—plus why some features aren't exclusive to the latest generation. They close with updates on HomePod features, TalkBack enhancements, and Spotify's long-awaited lossless streaming.Relevant LinksTurtleback Cases: https://turtlebacklv.comEmail: feedback@doubletaponair.comWhatsApp (Audio/Video Messages): +1-613-481-0144Voicemail: 1-877-803-4567 Find Double Tap online: YouTube, Double Tap Website---Follow on:YouTube: https://www.doubletaponair.com/youtubeX (formerly Twitter): https://www.doubletaponair.com/xInstagram: https://www.doubletaponair.com/instagramTikTok: https://www.doubletaponair.com/tiktokThreads: https://www.doubletaponair.com/threadsFacebook: https://www.doubletaponair.com/facebookLinkedIn: https://www.doubletaponair.com/linkedin Subscribe to the Podcast:Apple: https://www.doubletaponair.com/appleSpotify: https://www.doubletaponair.com/spotifyRSS: https://www.doubletaponair.com/podcastiHeadRadio: https://www.doubletaponair.com/iheart About Double TapHosted by the insightful duo, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, Double Tap is a treasure trove of information for anyone who's blind or partially sighted and has a passion for tech.

The panel kicks off with reactions to the iOS 26 Beta 9 and visionOS Beta 9 releases, highlighting improvements like 3D charting support for developers, enhanced accessibility ratings in the App Store, and visual refinements such as the updated liquid glass interface. While some bugs remain, overall performance feels crisper and more polished. Looking ahead to the event, the conversation centers on the iPhone 17 lineup — including rumors of a lighter iPhone 17 Air, spatial photography integration for Vision Pro, and whether the upgrades justify an annual refresh. Opinions are divided: some are eager to upgrade, while others remain skeptical about how compelling the changes will be. The panel also dives into expected updates for the Apple Watch Series 11 and Apple Watch Ultra 3, including a possible return of blood oxygen monitoring and other health features. Other Apple ecosystem topics include: Apple Wallet enhancements — digital boarding passes with live activities, airport maps, luggage tracking, and U.S. passport support. AirPods Pro 3 rumors — improved noise cancellation, redesigned stems, and heart rate monitoring integration. HomePod and AirTag updates — hopes for better battery life and a more seamless user experience. Apple TV speculation — possible Wi-Fi 7 support and potential gaming opportunities. In a lighter segment, the group discusses Astropad's new anti-reflective “Fresh Coat” screen protector, designed to reduce glare by 75% on the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro models. They also dive into Opera's revamped tab management on iOS, debating its potential to rival Safari and Chrome. Finally, the episode touches on Apple's AI ambitions, exploring reports of a planned answer engine integrated with Siri, leveraging deals with OpenAI, Perplexity, or even Google Gemini. While Apple's AI strategy sparks mixed opinions, the panel agrees that user privacy and energy efficiency will likely remain top priorities. This episode serves as the perfect primer before Apple's big event, balancing news, rumors, personal insights, and witty banter to prepare listeners for what's next in the Apple ecosystem.

Benjamin and Chance prepare to have their jaw dropped in the run up to the September 9 Apple event where we expect to see iPhone 17, Apple Watch Series 11 and maybe AirPods Pro 3. There's an interesting report on Apple's strategic calculus when it comes to acquiring other companies, and Gemini might become the brain of Siri. Also, Apple TV+ ups its monthly price by a hefty 30%.  And in Happy Hour Plus, we reflect on the last fifteen years of Apple event slogans, and whether there's a trend of decline. Subscribe at 9to5mac.com/join.

On this week's episode of The MacRumors Show, we talk through Apple's plan to focus on the smart home with a host of new devices and improvements to Siri.  An upgrade to ChatGPT-5 integration is planned for Siri with iOS 26, aiming to improve reasoning capabilities. The next-generation version of ‌Siri‌ is now being tested with third-party apps including Uber, AllTrails, Threads, Temu, Amazon, YouTube, Facebook, and WhatsApp. A more advanced large language model-based ‌Siri‌, which will be more powerful than the "personalized" ‌Siri‌, could launch as early as next spring. A visually redesigned ‌Siri‌ interface for iPhones and iPads is also under consideration for release in 2026. The company is said to be recruiting engineers for its "Answers, Knowledge, and Information" team tasked with enhancing ‌Siri‌, Spotlight, Safari, and other services. This team is in the early stages of creating a "new ChatGPT-like search experience" and is even exploring the possibility of a standalone "answer engine" app. The next-generation HomePod mini is expected to launch this year and will shift further toward the smart home. It will incorporate Apple's "S11" chip, a new Apple-designed Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip with Wi-Fi 6E support, and potentially a second-generation ultra-wideband chip for enhanced spatial awareness. The refresh may also bring improved sound quality alongside new color options. Likewise, a new Apple TV is expected to launch this year with the A17 Pro chip and the new Apple-designed Bluetooth and Wi-Fi chip.  Meanwhile, Apple's first smart home hub is now expected in 2026 and will feature a 7-inch display paired with an integrated speaker, taking visual cues from Google's Nest Hub with a square display, thin black or white bezels, rounded corners, and a half-dome-shaped base. Designed for shared household use, its interface will emphasize clock faces and widgets for core Apple apps, including Calendar, Camera, Music, Reminders, and Notes. ‌Siri‌ could feature a new visual interface, personified and inspired by the Mac Finder icon. The device will include a front-facing camera to deliver personalized content and features for each user, but it will not run third-party apps or have an app store. It is rumored to heavily rely on the next-generation version of ‌Siri‌. Apple is also believed to be working on a Ring-style home security camera with facial recognition and motion detection to trigger home automations. Battery life is apparently being designed to last several months to a year. A facial recognition doorbell is also in development. The camera could debut alongside the 2026 smart home hub. Lastly, a so-called Apple "robot companion" is in the prototyping stage, targeted for a 2027 launch. It will feature a 7-inch iPad-like display mounted on a movable arm that can rotate and extend about six inches in any direction—nicknamed internally as the "Pixar lamp." Apple envisions it as an AI-driven household companion, powered by an advanced ‌Siri‌ capable of remembering information, engaging in more natural conversations, and presenting a "visual personality." The device could proactively interrupt with suggestions and be similar to OpenAI's voice mode. It will include Center Stage as well as joystick-controlled camera movement to show different parts of a room during calls. Take control of your finances with Copilot Money.

Hablamos sobre la nueva función de los AirPods Pro que pausa la reproducción al detectar que el usuario se duerme, y consideramos los rumores sobre la hoja de ruta de hardware de Apple para los próximos años, como los posibles nuevos iPad Pro con chip M5 y la llegada de un híbrido HomePod con pantalla. Asimismo, analizamos las especulaciones sobre un nuevo Apple Pencil que podría funcionar sobre papel.Comentamos la sorprendente marcha de Jeff Williams de Apple y las implicaciones que esto podría tener para la sucesión de Tim Cook, dada la posición clave de Williams dentro de la compañía. También abordamos la agresiva estrategia de Meta para fichar talento en inteligencia artificial, ofreciendo contratos multimillonarios a ingenieros de primer nivel, lo que ha generado un calentamiento en el mercado de talento tecnológico. Por último, hacemos un breve repaso a las series de Apple TV+ como "Murderbot", "Slow Horses" y "Foundation", compartiendo nuestras impresiones y novedades.En este episodio, analizamos en profundidad el libro "Apple en China" de Patrick McGee, discutiendo su tesis principal sobre cómo Apple ha transformado el panorama económico y de fabricación en China a lo largo de los años. Comentamos la compleja y profunda codependencia entre Apple, Foxconn y TSMC, y cómo la inversión masiva de Apple no solo impulsó la fabricación global, sino que también contribuyó al surgimiento de competidores chinos al transferir conocimientos técnicos y operativos. También reflexionamos sobre las implicaciones políticas y sociales de esta relación, incluyendo la dura realidad laboral y los desafíos imprevistos con los cambios en el liderazgo chino.

WWDC invites have gone out, and Chance will be there in person.
