HomePod mini pre-orders are beginning to ship to customers around the world ahead of the speaker's launch next week.

HomePod mini orders are also starting to ship in Japan, some with November 16 delivery.
HomePod mini will be available starting the week of November 16 in the United States, Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Spain, and the United Kingdom, according to Apple. Pre-orders began November 6.
HomePod mini will also be available in Mexico, China, and Taiwan starting later this year.
