Harman Kardon Invoke Picture Gallery

Harman Kardon Invoke smart ppeaker, requesting a reset, by showing its red lights rotating.

We’ve snapped many pictures of the Harman Kardon Invoke speaker, its parts, and packaging. Specifically, these come from the various posts we wrote about this Cortana enabled device. We’ve put these photos together here in our Harman Kardon Invoke picture gallery for easy viewing. Further, we’ll add more as we add them to new posts about this speaker. Often, it just takes seeing some photos to learn how to perform common tasks with these speakers. Hope these help.
