Kubonakala ngathi sithi sodwa esiye sazibuza into efanayo kwaye siye kwezinye iimvavanyo ezicwangcisiweyo yi-Apple ukubonisa izibonelelo zayo. Nangona kunjalo, inkampani ibimfutshane kolu vavanyo kwaye ke ngoko asazi nangoku Kutheni ufune ukwazisa le nguqulelo intsha yezithethi eziye zayeka ukwenziwa kwaye zathengiswa kwiminyaka embalwa eyadlulayo kwaye zatshintshwa zaba yimodeli encinci?
NgoJanuwari 18, i-Apple yamangalisa abantu basekhaya kunye nabantu abangabaziyo ngokusungulwa kwe imodeli entsha ye-HomePod. Le nguqulo entsha, yesibini yesithethi ukuba inkampani yaseMelika yayeka ukuthengisa ngo-2021. Akukho nto ingako eyaziwayo malunga nale mizekelo emitsha kwaye kuya kufuneka silinde ukuba iqaliswe kwiimarike ukuze siqhubeke nohlalutyo olupheleleyo. Ukuthathela ingqalelo ukuba izixhobo zivumelekile ukuba zivavanywe linani elincinci labantu, ngesi sihlandlo olo vavanyo aluhambanga njengoko bekulindelwe.
U-Apple wamema inani elincinci lababhali betekhnoloji ukuba baphulaphule inguqulelo entsha ye-HomePod enesayizi epheleleyo, kodwa yabavumela kuphela ukuba bamamele iziqwengana ezimfutshane zeengoma ezimbalwa. Umzekelo, Ty Pendlebury yatsho lonto UApple wadlala enye yeengoma kuphela imizuzwana engama-30.

UChris Welch, uJacob Kroll, uLance Ulanoff kunye nabanye abaninzi bayavuma ukuba uvavanyo abalubeke kwiimodeli ezintsha aluzange luhlale ixesha elide ngokwaneleyo ukutsho ukuba ziphuculwe njani ii-HomePods ezintsha. Kodwa bayavuma ukuba umgangatho wesandi wezithethi uyamangalisa kwaye kunzima ukubetha. Kodwa asazi ukuba oko kuya kwanela na ukukhupha imali phantse 350 euro ukuba ixabisa.
