A Chinese Weibo account going by the name "Kang" this morning posted allegedly accurate information for every product set to be announced at the upcoming Apple event on October 13, including the rumored smaller form-factor HomePod speaker.
An image of the original post in Chinese has been tweeted by leaker Ice Universe, who has provided accurate information on unreleased Apple products in the past.

According to the leak, the the official name of the speaker is HomePod Mini, which will be priced at $99. The size of the speaker is said to be 3.3-inches high (the height of the original HomePod is 6.8-inches) and it is allegedly powered by an S5 processor, which is used in the Apple Watch Series 5 and Apple Watch SE.
The HomePod Mini is said to go on sale on November 16-17. Bloomberg's Mark Gurman has suggested the new speaker could include two tweeters, rather than the current model's seven, in order to drive down costs.
This morning's leak also includes talk of an upcoming "MagSafe" series of wireless charging accessories as well as alleged details on the full iPhone 12 lineup expected to be announced next week.

Amen brother. Same reason I won’t buy a MacBook. Where’s the LPT1 parallel port? How am I supposed to hook up my ESPON FX80 dot matrix without a parallel port??And still holds zero value to me if it can't even be used as a basic bluetooth speaker
Honestly, Apple could release one at $29 and people would still complain. :rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:price still isn't mini enough for some. but far better than the large HomePod if it can deliver on amazing sound
