Apple launched the HomePod in February 2018 with a premium $349.00 price tag that matched the company's marketing angle, which presented the smart speaker as a music-first device with excellent sound quality. After discontinuing the original model in March 2021, Apple announced a new model in January 2023, which now is sold alongside the HomePod mini.
The new HomePod includes a backlit touch surface and mesh fabric exterior that is virtually identical to the original device. Internally, it includes a four-inch high-excursion woofer, five tweeters, four microphones, an S7 chip and U1 chip, and support for Spatial Audio and Dolby Atmos. It's priced at $299.
The HomePod mini is a smaller iteration on Apple's in-home speaker, bringing the price down to a more affordable $99 price tag. In the fall of 2021, Apple added three bright new colors to the HomePod mini line: Blue, Yellow, and Orange.
With HomePod, Apple Music subscribers can easily stream their favorite artists, playlists, radio stations, albums, and more by talking to Siri. The device is also a home hub for HomeKit devices, allowing users to control their Hue bulbs, Ecobee thermostats, and more using their voice.
In this guide, you'll find the best currently available price for the HomePod mini at major Apple resellers including Adorama, Amazon, B&H Photo, Best Buy, and MacMall (which is now integrated with TigerDirect).
