(Original title: Amazon devices chief: HomePod and Echo ain't the same thing) Netease Technology News June 8 news, according to CNET reports, if Amazon's equipment responsible for Apple's new smart speakers HomePod nervous, he will not show it. On Wednesday, David Limp, senior vice president of Amazon's equipment division, represented the company for the first time to formally respond to HomePod. HomePod, which sells for $349 and supports Siri's voice control, was released on Monday and will be available in December this year. It is Amazon's Echo and its digital assistant Alexa's latest competitor. At the "Wired Business Conference" held in New York, Lump revealed to a group of reporters: "From our point of view, there are philosophical differences in how we think about smart speakers." Linp said that on the one hand, Amazon made its Echo device cheap enough that people could put it in every room in the house. This is why Amazon created the $50 Echo Dot smart speaker. HomePod's price is much higher. If you put a HomePod in each room, the expenses for most customers will be huge. Secondly, Link thinks that people have different preferences for speakers, so Amazon allows customers to easily pair Echo with high-end home entertainment systems. In contrast, HomePod aims to be a speaker that plays a major role. Taking into account these two differences, Lump does not seem to worry that HomePod will begin to erode Echo's customer base. When asked if Amazon would launch a high-end version of the Echo Smart Loudspeaker, Lump did not seem to be enthusiastic about this idea. He said: "I don't want to talk about product roadmaps, but I think that when people are willing to spend so much money for a speaker -- for example, hundreds of dollars per speaker -- I think in general they will want to We have already sold a lot of speakers on Amazon, and we want people to have more choices."
