This will be my first HomePod. I’m curious, for anyone here, will the Mini be your first HomePod product or do you already own the big HomePod?

I bought one to test, but based on reviews, I’m going to buy a second to make better use of the features.

I have four HomePods - two as a stereo pair with my iMac, and one each in other rooms of the house.

I’m all set to buy a couple but I’m fussy about sound quality. Not bothered about all the siri gimmicks so awaiting your reviews
 
I ordered mine about 75 minutes after preorders went live from the emergency where I was with my mother. Got a ship date of Nov 23-30. I ordered the space gray, which looks pretty damn sharp in my opinion. This is my first smart speaker of any kind. I thought the original HomePod was overpriced. And still is.
 
Brilliant, enjoyed that thanks. Convinced me. Only snag I’m in Ireland and it takes a little work around to get them but think I have it sorted
Sweet, get it. By the reviews it just made me want them even more. iJustine really showed off how loud they can get!
 
I assume that our HomePod mini orders are being shipped through 'Next-Day delivery' from one of the local warehouses in the United States, as that was the case with the HomePod biggie.
That’s good to know. Although I now have several OG HomePods (each purchased on sale for $200), I wasn’t about to fork over $350 for one on launch day. So I had no idea where they had shipped from.
 
Saw that some started shipping with arrival on Monday! Just not me, in the UK after paying for express shipping. 😡

Hey everyone! I just realized this was a thing.

Anyways, ordered about an hour after Preorders opened. Got a Delivery Date of November 18-23 by Express Delivery.
I’m still on “Processing”. Any idea when it will move to “Preparing to Ship”? Card not charged.

I’m in the Southern US btw.

Is it from the local warehouses in the States, or is it from China? If it's from the local warehouses, I can sleep peacefully as I won't have to expect any sort of delays lol

After a week of tracking my Pro Max, it would be nice if the HPM showed up from local warehouses. Actually, they may have flown with the iPhones this past week to save on shipping costs. They are small enough to where they could have traveled on the same flights or at least in the same timeframe.

Why wouldn’t they ship from there to us? I saw someone from another thread post their tracking and his came from China.
 
When did you get tracking exactly?
He's saying that he can see the shipping information by going into his FedEx account and checking in Delivery Manager, not that got tracking info from Apple. Alas when I do the same, I'm not seeing anything yet.
 
I ordered right at 5am and did not pay for Express Shipping. I see it in FedEx Delivery Manager now, shipping from Lebanon, TN via FedEx 2Day, shipping out Monday and arriving Wednesday!

If it's from Lebanon, TN, then that's amazing lol. Atlanta is just a short hop away! I am hoping for a Monday/Tuesday delivery!
 
Hi All, has anyone here in the UK ordered from Currys received any update since they ordered? I ordered 2 minis on November 6 and received the confirmation email, but I haven't received anything since
