Now that Black Friday sales are winding down and Cyber Monday deals have appeared, we're tracking solid deals across Apple's product lineup online right now. Among this lineup are all-time low prices on Apple's HomePod mini in multiple colors.

You'll find the HomePod mini deals this year are mainly being offered by Verizon, available for $79.99, and so far no other retailer has matched this price. As with all Black Friday sales, be sure to be quick with your purchases because we're never sure exactly how long these will last, and this sale in particular has already disappeared once this week.



Right now, this deal is only available in three colors: Yellow, Orange, and Blue. White and Space Gray models are listed as out of stock with regular $99.99 pricing.

If you're looking for something other than the HomePod mini, be sure to visit our post on every Apple device currently on sale for Black Friday. Additionally, our Black Friday 2022 Roundup has all of the best deals and discounts on other Apple-related products and accessories happening today.

I keep forgetting these things exist, and every 6 months MR reminds me again. Apple home automation and Siri are broken beyond imagination, yet Apple has to keep charging astonishingly more for this junk to protect its "luxury brand" image.

It would be a joke if not so pathetic.

"Alexa, dim the lights please."

Still stoked with my five original and two mini HomePods; the first going back almost five years. All get used every day. Superb sound, ease of use, and an excellent value.

Looking forward to new models.

Apple does not seem to have much luck with standalone speaker for example, iPod HiFi, HomePod, HomePod mini, the overpriced headphones.

Careful, at the rate Apple are going with their software updates, by 16.4 they won’t even be able to play music.

Just soothing sounds to fall asleep too. To play music it will need an M2 chip. 😝

Came here to say that. It seems like MR is spotty with their coverage of Costco deals for some reason.

I just received my eBay refurbished white HomePod minis for $60 each. They are in perfect condition, and sound exactly the same as the ones I bought new from apple a year ago.

I’m certain Target had this same price earlier this month. So it’s not only Verizon who has had this price and your statement is not accurate. Also, I have a pair of these for Home Theatre with Apple TV and it’s a fantastic experience. I don’t understand all the hate in the comments. I even play PlayStation 5 through these, just a great sound experience. Can’t wait for new rumored HomePod for true Spatial Audio.

Well they definitely sound better than static. Yeah they are overpriced, and Alexa is better for asking questions (I have a six year old, enough said), but I really like how the HomePod connects with my Apple devices.

I heard a good reason why some companies including Apple have this problem.
You can't actually get MORE money from the product.

Apple want to sell you a device, which it can then charge you more for as you use it, so first they sell you the item for a small profit, and then they use the device to get long term little payments from you.

With speaker stuff you can't really do that, all the money comes from selling you the hardware (you know, like the way the world use to be!!!!) so they are not really interested in supporting it much.

If they can sell you a device, and then generate long term ongoing money from you by you using the device, THEN see how much effort they put into it.

If you’re including headphones, then you have to include AirPods, and that’s where your argument breaks down; AirPods were the best selling wireless headphones globally. HomePod when it was introduced brought too little too late into the market that was dominated by Alexa and google home. Now echo dots are so cheap Apple can’t compete.

Apple has Apple Music they can make money from—I never considered Apple Music until I bought a HomePod because it is so limited without the service. Amazon has its own music service that is too easy for my kids to activate and start charging me a monthly fee without me realizing until several months later. And then there’s Alexa offering to help you reorder stuff with voice commands. Lots of ways for companies to make money with these speakers.
