Harman Kardon’s Cortana-powered speaker, called Invoke, is set to launch in the Fall, and while it hasn’ t been properly announced yet, a product page for it did briefly appear on the web, revealing many of the juicy details.
The leaked page, first spotted by Thurrott.com explains:
The attractive-looking metallic speaker delivers sound at a full 360-degrees, and like other similar products, you can use Invoke to control home automation devices, and it will work with select music subscription services, including Spotify. To set it up you’ ll need Cortana on Windows 10, Windows 10 Mobile, Android, or iPhone.
We knew the device was in the works, but this is the first real look at it we’ ve seen since the below video arrived late last year.
No doubt more information about the Invoke, including pricing, will be revealed at Build later this week.
Would you be interested in inviting Invoke into your home?
