Apple's HomePod mini 2 will reportedly launch this fall with new colors—green, pink, light blue, white, and black—while maintaining a similar design to the original. Information discovered in Apple's code suggests the updated speaker, unchanged in overall design after six years, will likely integrate with the company's Siri AI assistant.
Apple is preparing to release updated versions of the HomePod mini, iPad mini 8, and Apple TV 4K later this year, according to code leaks discovered by MacRumors. The HomePod mini will feature new color options, the iPad mini 8 will upgrade to the A20 Pro chip with a relocated front camera, and the Apple TV 4K will receive performance improvements. Details remain limited, but the iPad mini may also gain OLED display and improved waterproofing features.
Apple's next-generation iPad Mini will feature the A20 Pro chip, a landscape-oriented front-facing camera, and a new speaker system with a notch similar to iPhone, according to leaked code. The device is expected to launch by end of October with additional features including water resistance, OLED display, and a slightly larger screen.
