Wel they are useless for people who used them as a smart speaker to control their home.
This is some serious quality audio equipment and Cortana was always half rate bullshit that would activate randomly. I turned the function off completely on purpose almost immediately and went back to simply using the Alexa app to control my lights n such. I cannot see how this is a big deal unless you want it to be or your priorities are somehow;

Yet another thing that can turn my lights on and off >>>>> Much cheaper than it should be with incredible sound quality speaker (+ $50 gift card when the speaker cost $30/40 for almost everyone here, if you simply bothered to set it up)

I love the speaker , I bought it for $100 when it came out. And still think it's worth that price. All I'm saying is for someone who was using it to control their devices, it must be annoying that now they need to replace it for that.

I would rather jump in on a class action, rather than take the $50 gift card
Class actions of this nature often pay out in gift cards, anyway.

To be clear, Invoke will or will not still work over wifi to use Spotify, for instance?

Bought two of these at $50 each and had tried using one with Cortana and got the $50 code. I wish I had registered the second one. Thanks OP.

Can you get the gift card multiple times on the same account? I have 3 that I bought and registered previously. I managed to get one gift card and now when I go to the link it just shows the gift card I already redeemed and doesn't give an option to do it again.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank

I found the answer here:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-...don-invoke

Q: What do I need to do if I have multiple Invoke devices?
The redemption website requires that we manually process the gift card codes for Microsoft accounts that are associated with more than one Invoke device. Use the Contact Us link in the footer on the website to send us an email. Make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to set up your Invoke, and that the "Correlation ID" that's automatically generated is included in the email, as we can't process your request without it. Also be sure to send us the MAC addresses of each of your Invokes.

Seeing as how I only paid $50 for mine, I've ended up with a free bluetooth speaker. It's a hell of a speaker. Amazing sound. But I will miss Cortana. First, I liked that it was a smart speaker and responded to voice commands, but also, Cortana synced with Outlook and I could ask for the day's agenda in the morning and Cortana could tell me. That was great.

I won an Invoke from Microsoft via a sweepstakes through their Rewards program a couple of years ago, and I just redeemed my $50 gift card! I don't come on this site as often as I used to. So, I feel super lucky to have seen this post!!!

While I don't see it specifically mentioned, all smart features are gone, it's just going to be a bluetooth speaker.

Amazing offer. Like others have said, the Cortana aspect is the worst part of the speaker (mostly random Cortana yelling), and I just used it to control Spotify while in the shower. 100% improving the product for me, and making it essentially free years later is a crazy icing on the cake.

I paid $100 a few months after it came out. It does work well with several brands of lights. The quality of the speaker is very good. I can still use it as a Bluetooth speaker. Cortana was replaced by Alexa some time ago. No loss

Have 3 that I have dished basic voice commands periodically to remind myself that Alexa could be so much worse. Can't wait to get my $150.
