Surprise HomePod Mini Deal at Verizon Saves You 15% for a Limited Time - CNET

Any HomePod deal is a rare occurance worth celebrating. And even though Apple's second-gen HomePod is just hitting store shelves and early adopters' doorsteps today, it's the HomePod Mini that deserves attention, with 15% off its regular price at Verizon. The diminutive Apple smart speaker is down to just $85 there right now, just $5 more than its Black Friday price, though there's no set end to this limited-time offer so it could expire at any moment. 

Today's deal applies to all five colors so, as of this writing, you can take your pick of white, space gray, blue, orange or yellow options. Free two-day shipping is included, or you can opt to pick up in a Verizon store if that suits you better. 

The HomePod Mini is Apple's latest Siri-powered smart speaker, and a borderline essential gadget if you're an Apple Music subscriber or if you're trying to put together an Apple HomeKit smart home setup. Despite its small size, the spherical tabletop speaker can fill a room with sound and you can even pair two of them with your Apple TV for a great stereo experience. 

If you've been thinking about picking up a HomePod Mini for your kitchen, living room or any other part of your house and you've been waiting for the right time, well, here's your opportunity to get one for $15 less than usual.
