Apple Reportedly Preparing Second-Gen HomePod Mini With Faster Chip, Audio Upgrades
Apple is reportedly preparing to launch a new HomePod Mini with major upgrades, including the faster S9 or S10 chip and the new N1 wireless chip supporting Wi-Fi 6E for improved speed and stability. The speaker is expected to deliver smoother audio, faster Siri responses, and better efficiency. New colour options, including red, may also debut. Designed for Apple’s updated smart home ecosystem, the refreshed HomePod Mini is likely to launch soon as retailers list the current model as discontinued.
