The HomePod mini boasts incredible sound, smart home control and assistant features, built-in privacy and security, all in a sleek and compact design. Apple introduces the HomePod mini, the latest addition to the HomePod family, offering impressive sound, smart Siri features, and seamless, convenient ways to control smart home functions. At just 8.3 centimeters tall, the HomePod mini is packed with innovative technology and advanced software that together unlock digitally mastered audio with groundbreaking sound quality, wherever you are. It's perfect for playing music from your iPhone, answering calls, or getting personalized suggestions; it enhances your Apple TV audio and can be used to play music from a Mac and much more. It's a small speaker that packs a lot of innovative Apple technology, and at a great price. The HomePod mini is designed to work with Apple Music, podcasts, radio stations from iHeartRadio, radio.com, and TuneIn, and within months, Pandora, Amazon Music, and other popular music services. If you have multiple HomePod mini speakers, you can use them to stream music or podcasts to multiple rooms, perfectly synced. By placing two HomePod mini speakers in the same room, you can create a stereo pair with wide soundstage and rich sound. Features: Ambient sounds, such as the sound of rain, a fireplace, or a babbling brook, can help you focus, relax, or even fall asleep. Find My helps you locate a misplaced iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, or Apple Watch by playing a sound that makes it easier to find the device. Web search results can be sent directly from the HomePod mini to your iPhone where they are easy to read. With musical alarms, you can choose to wake up to your favorite song, playlist, or radio station from Apple Music. Exceptional Sound: The HomePod mini uses computational audio to deliver an incredibly rich and detailed listening experience of the highest quality. To get truly rich sound from such a small and compact speaker as the HomePod mini, Apple's S5 chip is used along with advanced software that analyzes the unique characteristics of the music and applies complex adjustment models to optimize volume, adjust dynamic range, and control the movements of the driver and slave bass in real time. Apple's own full-bandwidth driver is powered by a neodymium magnet and two force-canceling slave bass elements, resulting in rich bass and clear high frequencies. The HomePod mini is based on the same acoustic principles that enable the phenomenal sound of the HomePod and is equipped with an Apple-designed acoustic waveguide that directs the sound flow downwards and away from the bottom of the speaker, contributing to an immersive 360-degree sound experience. This means that the customer gets equally good sound regardless of where in the room the HomePod mini is placed. A set of three microphones is used for Hey Siri, and a fourth, inward-facing microphone helps isolate sound coming from the speaker itself. This solution improves voice recognition when the speaker is used to play music. Powerful Intelligent Assistant: The smart Siri features help the HomePod mini provide iPhone users with a personal and deeply integrated experience. Siri can determine who is speaking and tailor music and podcasts based on that person's preferences, and respond to personal requests such as opening messages, reminders, notes, and calendar events, or making and answering phone calls. Siri can also give users personalized, quick updates about the day ahead. You can simply ask Siri for a quick update on the latest news, weather, traffic, reminders, and calendar events. The HomePod mini works perfectly with other Apple devices, meaning you can easily answer a call, listen to music on your Mac, or upgrade your TV experience by taking the sound from your Apple TV to the next level.
