Harman Kardon knocks it out of the park. Sounds better than its competition, and is extremely well built.
The lack of commands might bother some. But I expect more to be added on a regular basis.

The speaker and ability to connect to Bluetooth is awesome! Cortana does a great job - though in my home of other Alexa devices, Alexa is still hands down the better of the two as an AI device.

The setup instructions are absolutely WRONG. If you follow the directions for IOS setup, none of it works, you have to use the Cortana app but instead of doing what it says, click the microphone and say "setup invoke". Also it says you can setup from a windows 10 pc, this again is wrong, you can only setup from a windows 10 pc that is on a WIFI network.

I like it,It has a way to go is far is smart home usage. But the sound quality is superior to Amazon if you’re using it for a music player that will certainly serve it’s purpose

Overall this thing is great. Cortana is quickly becoming the best AI out there, and the speaker actually sounds pretty fantastic for music. While I wouldn't say it's a good as the mega-boom speaker wise, it's pretty dang close. Overall would highly recommend.

Though I bought this product for more than a personal assistant,the sound from this product is amazing,Cortana does need to catch up to Google home and Alexa.

I personally like the speaker, it plays music through iHeartRadio or premium Spotify. I hope soon it will integrate all other music as a standard

Great alternative to Amazon's Echo. This product sounds about as good as it gets with very diverse frequency ranges to Cortana's crisp clean voice, this is something you get as a gift and go back for another. (Aka me)

This has to be the best speaker I've heard in sometime and the extra perks of having Cortana as an personal digital assistant is wonderful. This speaker is a steal at $99.00 buy yours today!

Waited a long time for this to come out. I use Cortana on my Windows 10 computers, my Xbox, and my iOS devices. Everything is in sync across all of them.
She handles everything that Alexa does and with the skills development ability will continue to get better. I have four of these devices in my house, replacing the Echo devices that just weren’t cutting it for our family. Give it a try I’m sure you will be pleasantly surprised.

The sound quality of the Harman/Kardon Invoke is excellent compared to some of the other smart speakers i have tried. It can fill up a room at easily at half volume. It has six speakers total, 3 woofers and 3 tweeters. The build quality is also great giving it a very premium look and feel. The speaker looks expensive. I love the way it looks on my desk or on any other counter i put it on. It has a metal grill around it, the top itself is touch sensitive and lights up when you touch it or say "Hey Cortana" which is Microsofts virtual assistant, the top also rotates as a manual volume knob which is pretty neat. You can tap the top to get a random fun fact from Cortana which is always interesting. The voice commands are great i can say " hey Cortana what's the news?" naturally without pausing after asking for Cortana. On my Alexa speaker i have to slightly pause then say my command which is a little annoying. You can set reminders, check your calendar, Skype calls, Hue lights and a few music services. It has support for Iheart radio, spotify and Tunein radio at the moment. The only thing i have a issue with is the on the Cortana app i cannot choose from a list of radio stations on it, sometimes you may not know an exact station name and Cortana cannot take you to the station or maybe you want to explore a different genre and cant because you need to know the name. On on of my Alexa enabled speakers you can do just that. It's a minor thing and can be forgiven maybe they can update the app in the future and fix this. You can also use it as a bluetooth speaker. Connects to my phone very easily with no disconnection. Plays music from my phone with ease, sometimes i connect it to my phone when I'm watching Netflix. Overall excellent sounding speaker, great design elements, looks good, just shy from perfect because of the music accessibility from the app. I would recommend it especially because it is on sale this week for $99!
