While we've seen these Apple HomePod prices before, they're still the lowest that the powerful smart speaker has dropped to. 

The Apple HomePod comes with an impressive array of microphones, powerful, bass-thumping audio, and great integration into the Apple ecosystem of smart home products. 

Voice support comes courtesy of Siri, and while Apple's AI assistant isn't quite as smart as Google Assistant or Alexa, you'll still be able to control your music and other devices hands-free. 

We think that the Apple HomePod may be on the verge of getting support for third-party music streaming services like Spotify and Tidal, too, giving you even more choice when it comes to playing your favorite songs. 

What about the Apple HomePod 2?

Rumors of the Apple HomePod 2 – or Apple HomePod Mini if you prefer – have been circling for a long time now, but evidence of the smaller Apple smart speaker has been building steadily since we first caught wind of it back in 2018.

An imminent release date could be why we've with some fantastic HomePod deals in recent months, though there's been no confirmation from Apple on the existence of the second-gen wireless speaker.

If you're dedicated to buying the latest Apple products, you may want to hold off from buying the original Apple HomePod for now; saying that, with no firm release date in sight, you could be waiting a long time to get your hands on a new smart speaker.

Otherwise? These are the lowest prices we've seen so far, so if you've been waiting for an opportunity to get the HomePod at a discount, this is your chance.
