Is the HomePod Mini worth buying?

The price of $99 is a very low price for an Apple product. Think about its big brother HomePod asking for $299.

But Apple does not just want you to buy one, because it is the hub of the smart home, used to control HomeKit devices. It is their opinion to have one for each room, so as to have better efficiency. You can look at the set of advertising campaigns they shot specifically for this product.

Simply using it as a speaker is not very functional. First of all, Android cannot be connected. This is not a Bluetooth speaker but is connected to the same network and controlled by Apple’s ancestral air transmission. It can only be used in the Apple Ecosystem. Buy two at the same time, put one on the left and right, you can set it as a surround sound speaker.

The most important thing to bring convenience is that you can use the iPhone to control your HomeKit device in the home. The second is that the phone is close to the music you listened to last time, and you can also call Siri.

Overall, I feel pretty good, so you can try it. It is most suitable for heavy Apple ecological users.
