But, Using regularly updated data from a patrolling Roomba, could possibly allow smart speakers to better adjust to a house's acoustics.

  • How To Make Eating Takeout Food Feel More Like Dining Out

    For people who love eating out at restaurants, having to dine on takeout at home can feel uninspiring. But according to Business Insider, chefs and restauranteurs say there a number of ways to make eating at home feel more special. First, turn off the news and the fluorescent kitchen lights. Swap them for mood music and candlelight. Dress your table in the theme of the cuisine you're eating. Use cloth napkins with napkin rings or fancy folds, and your good china, cutlery, and stemware. Third, pair your meal with an appropriate beverage: sweet tea with fried chicken, sake with sushi, or horchata with Mexican food. Finally, jazz up your entree's plating with a garnish, and your dessert with whipped cream, fresh fruit, or a chocolate or raspberry drizzle. Bon appetit!

As far as price points go Amazon may still be winning in the minds of frugal consumers. Apples Homepod which will be available later this year comes with a price tag of $349 a pop which Apple says is justified based on the extra bells and whistles that will make this speaker stand out above the rest. Features of all the Smart Speaker options include, streaming music directly from your phone or tablet, and popular online music services as well as having a smart assistant built-in to the products.
