An electronic device, comprising: a first upper portion with a first internal surface having a first attachment structure and a first external surface that extends beyond the first internal surface in a direction opposite the first attachment structure; a second base portion with a second internal surface having a second attachment structure and a circular opening, the second base portion being configured to be placed on a surface of a smart home or media environment, when in use; the first and second internal surfaces having compatible shapes that permit the first upper portion and the second base portion to be moved from a separated position to a joined position by movement of the first internal surface through the circular opening of the second base portion, such that when the first upper portion and the second base portion are in the joined position, the first and second internal surfaces form a nested arrangement that allows for interaction between the first and second attachment structures (202, 212) and the first upper portion abuts the second base portion; the first and second attachment structures (202, 212) being configured to form a secure but separable connection to one another via magnetic attraction when the first upper portion and the second base portion are in the joined position; the first upper portion and the second base portion being configured to be joined securely and separated through manual human manipulation of one or both of the first upper portion and the second base portion to move the first upper portion and the second base portion between the separated and joined positions; and the first upper portion further including one or more speakers which speakers, when the first upper portion and the second based portion are in the joined position, protrude into and are concealed within the second base portion, and the second base portion having a porous or accoustically transparent wall configured to allow sound waves generated by the one or more speakers to penetrate and be heard beyond the second base portion of the electronic device. a first upper portion with a first internal surface having a first attachment structure and a first external surface that extends beyond the first internal surface in a direction opposite the first attachment structure; a second base portion with a second internal surface having a second attachment structure and a circular opening, the second base portion being configured to be placed on a surface of a smart home or media environment, when in use; the first and second internal surfaces having compatible shapes that permit the first upper portion and the second base portion to be moved from a separated position to a joined position by movement of the first internal surface through the circular opening of the second base portion, such that when the first upper portion and the second base portion are in the joined position, the first and second internal surfaces form a nested arrangement that allows for interaction between the first and second attachment structures (202, 212) and the first upper portion abuts the second base portion; the first and second attachment structures (202, 212) being configured to form a secure but separable connection to one another via magnetic attraction when the first upper portion and the second base portion are in the joined position; the first upper portion and the second base portion being configured to be joined securely and separated through manual human manipulation of one or both of the first upper portion and the second base portion to move the first upper portion and the second base portion between the separated and joined positions; and the first upper portion further including one or more speakers which speakers, when the first upper portion and the second based portion are in the joined position, protrude into and are concealed within the second base portion, and the second base portion having a porous or accoustically transparent wall configured to allow sound waves generated by the one or more speakers to penetrate and be heard beyond the second base portion of the electronic device.
