Apple has refreshed its popular HomePod mini lineup with a brand new color option - Midnight. This exciting addition not only offers a stylish aesthetic but also aligns with Apple's commitment to environmental responsibility.
Sustainable Design Meets Bold Color
According to the iPhone maker, the new Midnight HomePod mini boasts a sleek and sophisticated look, while staying true to Apple's eco-conscious goals. This update features a 100% recycled mesh fabric construction, marking a significant step towards their 2030 carbon neutrality target.
Premium Sound in a Compact Package
Despite its diminutive size (just 3.3 inches tall), the HomePod mini delivers surprisingly powerful and room-filling audio. Whether you enjoy music solo or prefer a stereo experience, the HomePod mini offers exceptional sound quality. Additionally, multiroom audio capabilities allow you to seamlessly link multiple HomePod mini speakers throughout your home.
Unlock a World of Entertainment
The HomePod mini seamlessly integrates with Apple Music, granting access to a vast library of over 100 million songs. Furthermore, you can leverage Siri, Apple's intelligent assistant, to control playback using various criteria like artist, song title, lyrics, genre, or even mood.
Enhance your entertainment experience by pairing your HomePod mini with Apple TV 4K, creating a captivating home theater setup.
Smarter Home Management with Siri
The HomePod mini goes beyond music playback, offering a robust suite of smart home functionalities. Utilize Siri to set up automated routines, receive alerts for smoke or carbon monoxide detection, monitor room temperature and humidity, or even broadcast announcements throughout your entire house using the Intercom feature.
How to Pre-Order New Midnight HomePod mini Color Option
The new Midnight HomePod mini is available for pre-order starting July 17 at $99 from Apple's online store and the Apple Store app.
Physical availability will follow shortly after, arriving at Apple Stores in the U.S., Canada, China mainland, Singapore, and 28 additional countries and regions, according to MacRumors.
Customers can also purchase the Midnight HomePod mini through authorized Apple resellers and select carriers.
While the other color options (yellow, orange, blue, and white) remain available, they continue to utilize the previous mesh fabric composition.
A Commitment to Sustainability
The introduction of the Midnight HomePod mini with its eco-friendly construction highlights Apple's dedication to environmental responsibility. While the wait continues for Apple Intelligence, a highly anticipated feature in upcoming software updates, the HomePod mini remains a powerful and versatile smart speaker with a focus on both entertainment and smart home convenience.
Speaking of HomePod, a new rumor teased that a HomePod with a touchscreen display might be available on tvOS 18 beta. Another speculation points out the previous "Home Accessory" device for the same beta version. It was quite comparable to the "AudioAccessory" identifier which was used for HomePod.
