Apple's HomePod had no chance against Google's much cheaper Home smart speakers, most likely due to the higher price. Deals on Apple's HomePod have been pretty frequent in the last couple of months, but the smart speaker's price hasn't yet dropped below the $200 mark.

Apple is still selling the HomePod for $350 on its official store, but many U.S. retailers offer decent discounts on the smart speakers. At the moment, Apple HomePod is $100 cheaper at Best Buy, in either black or white colors.

Along with the $100 discount, Best Buy also offers free Apple Music for 3 months to everyone who buys the HomePod. The only requirement is that you must be a new subscriber. Free shipping is available as well, but you can also choose to pick it up from the nearest Best Buy store.

The HomePod is powered by Apple's Siri, which, in our experience, pales in comparison to Google Assistant's reach with the various Google Home speakers available on the market. If you haven't decided whether or not to go for Apple's smart speaker, you can learn more about it in our HomePod review.
