HomePod Mini
HomePod Mini is a smart speaker developed by Apple Inc.. It was announced on October 13, 2020, and is the smaller variant of the original HomePod. The HomePod Mini is designed to work with Apple's digital assistant, Siri, and can play music, set alarms, control smart home devices, and provide the user with information, among other functions.
Design[edit | edit source]
The HomePod Mini has a spherical design, with a flat top that features a backlit touch surface. This surface lights up when Siri is activated and can be used to control volume and playback. The speaker is covered in a seamless mesh fabric designed for both aesthetic and acoustic performance.
Features[edit | edit source]
The HomePod Mini is powered by Apple's own S5 chip and uses computational audio to deliver the best possible sound quality. It features a full-range driver and dual passive radiators, allowing it to deliver a deep bass and crisp high frequencies.
The HomePod Mini also features an U1 chip, which allows it to understand its location in relation to other U1-equipped devices. This can be used for features like handing off phone calls or music from an iPhone to the HomePod Mini.
Compatibility[edit | edit source]
The HomePod Mini works with iPhone SE, iPhone 6s or later, or iPod touch (7th generation) running iOS 14; or iPad Pro, iPad (5th generation or later), iPad Air 2 or later, or iPad mini 4 or later running iPadOS 14.
Reception[edit | edit source]
The HomePod Mini has been praised for its sound quality and value for money, but criticized for its reliance on Apple's own ecosystem.
