HomePod Mini 2 first look: Three things I love and one disappointment

The HomePod Mini 2 has improved significantly over its predecessor, with a faster processor, Wi-Fi 6E support, and a snappier Siri voice assistant. The speaker is also quieter and comes in a new green color. However, the upgrade to the Mac speaker feature was not successful for the author. The HomePod Mini 2 is available for $149, $50 more than the original.
