Apple has released a new, smaller version of their speaker: HomePod mini.
One of my complaints with the original HomePod was its use of a proprietary power cable connector, which made it difficult to replace or shorten the cable. Most other Apple devices use industry-standard C7 "figure 8" power cables for mains wall power, or a USB-C or Lightning cable plus a power adapter.
What type of power cord does the HomePod mini use?
Best Answer
The Apple sales page does not contain a single photo of the power cord. It's as if they want you to think it doesn't have one...
I used that page's "AR" feature on my iPhone to view a virtual version of the HomePod mini on my table. I had to walk around to the other side of the table, then took a screenshot.
The AR HomePod mini appears to use the same round, proprietary, non-removable power cable as the original HomePod.
