In the morning of January 21st, according to reports from foreign media, Apple's HomePod has received FCC certification in the United States. This milestone indicates that the product is now cleared for sale and could be available to consumers at any moment.
HomePod was an unexpected addition during Apple’s fall event last year, but it plays a crucial role in the company’s broader smart home strategy. With HomePod, users can not only stream music from their iOS devices but also control a wide range of HomeKit-compatible smart home accessories. Simply speaking to Siri allows you to manage your home environment effortlessly.
Originally expected to launch in December 2017, the HomePod faced several delays due to technical challenges, pushing its release date back to early 2018. Now, with FCC approval, the device is officially on track for a global rollout.
The FCC-certified HomePod is set to make its debut in key markets first, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and Canada. These countries are likely to see the product hit shelves before other regions.
According to recent reports, suppliers have already begun shipping the first batch of HomePod units to Apple. The initial order is estimated to include around one million units, signaling strong confidence in the product's market potential.
However, for users in China, the wait may still be longer. While Apple typically rolls out new products globally, regional availability often depends on local regulations and supply chain logistics. So, Chinese customers might need to wait a bit longer before they can get their hands on the HomePod.
