You did! In the initial post you stated,
Yeah that's in no way stating that it failed to meet MY expectations, which is what you were claiming. I specifically stated I very much liked mine. From a sales standpoint its failed to meet expectations.

My bad!...I misunderstood your post. My apologies.

Well, it's objectively better. It can do a whole lot more than the HomePod. The HomePod doesn't even have a display.
I don’t like google in my home and I have not been pleased with the google home device I had. It would lock my chrome cast to YouTube and not disconnect without being unplugged. It would lose connection to my hue lights regularly. The sound was not as good as my HomePod and it was a pain in the butt to set up. I don’t want any smart speaker with a screen. I don’t see value in that. So for me the choice was clear. If what you bought works for you then great.
You don’t like google, great. But that doesn’t mean the Google Home Hub isn’t objectively better than the HopePpd.

With the recent report that Apple's Homepod is now lumped in with the embarrassing "other" in overall sales of smart speakers I think its a safe play to call this product a failure. Maybe a cheaper version with more features will improve sales. Don't get me wrong, I love mine, but there was no way this thing was going to sell in this crowded market at that price.
I definitely would have been interested if the price had been lower.
Same here Annie, but there are just too many "Smart Speakers" on the market at reasonable price points that are better in an overall sense in my honest opinion.
I'm not sure I would consider the Apple HomePod a failure but it sure didn't sell like "normal" Apple products do/did.
Apple priced it too high for as limited as it was. There were better options that offered more features when it released. I'm waiting on one more price drop before I pick one up.
