Homepod 2 - It's back but is it worth it?

Homepod 2nd Generation - It's baaaack! I once mourned the loss of the Homepod OG and it has now returned, but is it worth it? The original HomePod was expensive and didn’t sell, even when they dropped the price. The new Homepod is a slightly upgraded version of the mini, but still for $400. It's Thread & Matter compatible. Find out some of the differences, listen to a quick sound comparison and I'll share my first impressions of Homepod 2.
