They're already making suggestions. Got one this morning telling me I can ask it for updates on Amazon packages.

Speaking of which, anyone have any suggestions for better smart speakers?

I’m not really a smart speaker kind of guy but HomePods are nice, sound quality is pretty good

Mine isn’t. Do you use the full size, or the mini?

[–] ifItWasUpToMe@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I bought a full size a few years ago but returned it cause I didn’t think it was worth the price. I got a mini as a gift last year and it works great. Even has built in temperature and humidity sensors

I wish I shared your experience with the mini. Mine is temperamental, glitchy, somehow obnoxious, and the sound is mediocre.
