After a four-year run, the unique Google Home has lastly shuffled out of Google’s good speaker lineup, and now comes phrase {that a} successor is probably going on the way in which. What are we prone to see in a revamped Google Home, or no matter Google finally ends up calling it? We have already got some concepts.
Steeper price ticket
Google Home fetched $130 when it was first introduced again in 2016, though its sticker value quickly fell to $99 and it was ceaselessly obtainable for much lower than that. If the Google Home’s successor does find yourself arriving with an even bigger design and higher sound, we’d anticipate it to retail for not less than the unique $130 value of the Google Home, and doubtless nearer to the (at present discounted) $170 price ticket of the Amazon Echo Studio and even the $200 Sonos One. Given which you can at present scoop up a Google Home Max speaker for $250, it appears unlikely that the brand new Home’s sticker value would crack $200, however once more, we’re simply guessing right here.
A fall launch date
The ongoing pandemic makes it arduous to foretell what’s going to occur tomorrow, a lot much less what’s within the playing cards for the approaching months. That mentioned, Google has typically introduced its newest good units within the fall, with the newest Google good speaker, the Nest Mini, making its debut in October 2019. We’ll simply go forward and predict that the Google Home’s successor can be unveiled someday round Halloween.
