Best HomePod Deals: Apple's Siri-Powered Smart Speakers Are Seeing Some Sweet Deals
While there are ongoing rumors that Apple is readying a new HomePod with a smart display built in, the company's HomePod 2 and HomePod mini remain the newest releases right now. They're powered by Siri, and they tightly integrate with the Apple ecosystem. HomePods also surprisingly boast some of the best audio in the smart speaker space as well, making them the go-to option for a lot of people, especially those loyal to the Apple ecosystem. But like all Apple products, they aren't by any means affordable. Unfortunately, even the smaller HomePod mini isn't cheap and the larger HomePod 2 is among the most costly options we've seen. That's why we've found all the best deals and outlined them right here, so you don't pay more than you have to.
We'll update this list of deals as offers come and go and prices change, so be sure to check back later if you don't see the right deal for you currently.
In a surprise move, Apple unveiled an upgraded HomePod in January 2023. The long-awaited update to the full-size HomePod, originally released in 2018 and discontinued in 2021, has a mostly unchanged appearance, but the new smart speaker packs in some interesting additional features alongside the exceptional audio quality we've come to expect from Apple gear. New features include Matter, Thread and Bluetooth 5.0 support, plus built-in temperature, humidity and sound recognition sensors.
B&H Photo is offering one of the few direct discounts on the HomePod 2 right now, with $10 off the white and midnight options, dropping the price to $289. The retailer also offers a neat way to save on sales tax with its own-brand B&H Payboo credit card*, which gives you the tax back as cash. On a purchase as large as a HomePod, that's a decent chunk of change.

Launched in late 2020, Apple's HomePod Mini provided a more compact and, crucially, cheaper smart speaker option for Apple fans. Vibrant colors were added to the lineup in 2021, something the full-size HomePod lacks. At $99, the Mini is much more affordable than its larger sibling, although it's still nice to find a HomePod Mini deal that can knock down its price even further.
B&H Photo stocks all five HomePod Mini colors, and the retailer is selling each for $99 right now. While there's no discount, you can at least save on sales tax by using the B&H Payboo credit card, which gives you the tax as cash back.

Costco is currently offering the HomePod mini with a modest $5 discount, but it's definitely better than nothing.
