HomePod pricing shifts with sales and stock. Instead of a number that goes stale, see the current cheapest price across retailers on our tracker:
You can also set a price-drop alert so you're notified the moment it dips below your target, handy since the HomePod's discounts tend to be brief.
When the HomePod Goes On Sale
Apple rarely discounts the HomePod directly. The reliable savings come from third-party retailers during major sale windows, Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Prime Day, and back-to-school, when speakers are common doorbusters.
Buying a stereo pair? The discount stacks, so a sale is the right moment to grab two and unlock the HomePod's best feature.
HomePod vs HomePod mini: Which to Buy
The HomePod mini at $99 is the easy pick for a bedroom, kitchen, or desk, where you mostly want Siri, timers, and decent sound in a small package.
The full HomePod is a different class of audio: room-filling sound, computational audio, and stereo pairing for a genuine home-theater upgrade when paired with an Apple TV. If sound quality matters, it's worth the difference.
