When you compare the Belkin SoundForm Elite to the standard Homepod, you will see that while the audio output is comparable, the Belkin SoundForm Elite comes out on top in the bass department.
When we played some media in a medium-sized room, we were surprised to see that despite the size and form factor, the Belkin was able to output un-muddled sound at the highest volume setting. The media covered the entire room and we are not very disappointed with the range.
The bigger the room, the more the seemingly smaller SoundForm will struggle, but then again, the HomePod also is not so strong in a bigger setting.
One more thing we have noticed is that streaming music directly from the Belkin SoundForm Elite sounded a lot more mellifluous than when we streamed via Bluetooth. It’s something Belkin should look into for the next iteration of the speaker.
Overall, we are satisfied with the audio performance of the Belkin SoundForm Elite Hi-Fi Smart speakers. This is the first outing for Belkin in the smart speaker department and we are glad they have taken a step in the right direction. Devialet’s audio tech does shine through in its moments with good bass.
