Apple announces HomePod mini 2: Siri AI, new colors, Sound Glow, more

What the coverage shows

All three outlets cover Apple’s HomePod mini update and note that Siri AI support is not available at launch. 9to5Mac uses the broadest announcement framing, while Engadget is the only one to mention an October 30 arrival date and new colors in its extract. The Verge alone foregrounds the new chip and the Sound Glow feature that syncs the LED lights with album art.
