Sonos One vs. HomePod: Which should you buy?Here at iMore, we love music, and we're always looking for the best hardware to play it, from earbuds to home sound systems.

Tiny Power
$199 at Amazon

AirPlay 2 support
Can stereo pair with another Sonos One
Cons
Sound only plays in one direction
Sound doesn't fill a room like HomePod
Alexa only available in a handful of regions
While it doesn't sound quite as good as the HomePod and doesn't fill a room in the same way, the Sonos One is an excellent speaker, and great in a wireless stereo pair. It's cheaper than the HomePod by $150 and has Alexa integration built in, even if it's only available in a handful of countries. Thanks to AirPlay 2, the Sonos One is also compatible with Siri through your iPhone or iPad and can play audio as part of a whole-home sound system with other AirPlay 2 speakers.
Apple HomePod
Superior sound
$349 at Apple
