the prob is that even in lion city, homepod min is not selling but it is selling in HK, taiwan etc.. totally funny.

Yeah, MY, normal lah but quite surprised that SG also not selling the HomePods.

I bought from Mint seller (from Laz but Shopee also got the same seller), they gave me HK unit. It came in the original Apple outside brown box packing. They just stuck a J&T label on it.

Izzit a legit unit?

I saw on Shopee they are selling too.

I got quite a lot of coins to utilise but am afraid it's a fake one so thinking whether to get it imported here manually or ....

ic. that's good.

i bought it immediately when homepod mini was launched from best buy - US site (not even the apple US website). becos almost most US website do not accept credit cards that are not issued in US. i tried quite hard then manage to buy it that time. and homepod mini was out of stocks for quite a while when it first launched.

it is a great speaker. i was trying out many brands to find a speaker that can meet my needs but was out of luck.
I always like ths sounds on all the apple devices including this homepod.
i am very particular about the clarity of vocals of a speaker. but most brands speaker is having very strong bass but poor vocals which i do not like.
apple one is good becos the bass is good enough but again the vocal is very clear.

Yeah, it's legit. I was a bit worried too but it's the real thing. My big HomePod also I bought from Shopee a few years ago.

Yeah, I know. Thanks very much. I actually asked you about the seller. When you said Mint which was the same as the seller I was checking out on Lazada, that kinda increased my confidence.

It's not on their website, and I checked the US site, it's already ready to order.

Yeah so I don't expect Malaysia to get it either laugh.gif

Wait either shopee or my HK friend to help me.

Blue color looks good and seems like a decent X'mas gift.

Bought two HomePod Minis: blue and orange on 4 Nov afternoon, and they both arrive this morning.

Setup as stereo speakers, and the sound quality is very good (for the first time Apple's Home App is installed on my phone)

Attached Image Attached Image Attached Image Attached Image

As they don't have built-in batteries and will be used indoor, I do not purchase Apple Care+ for them.

Bought them in China. Apple opened the order on Mon, but I couldn't decide the color then forgot to place order tongue.gif Else they should arrive much earlier
