A stand for the HomePod Mini smart speaker is not something I ever thought I’d use or want, but I was slightly intrigued. Review: Apple HomePod (2023): Way better sound quality than HomePod Mini The stand has three legs made out of real wood, with a metal ring in the middle that acts as a base for the HomePod Mini. There’s no setup, because, well, it’s a stand. You take it out of the box, put the HomePod Mini on it, and you’re done. Also: The best smart speakers What I like the most about the stand is how it makes it look like the legs are built right into the HomePod Mini. In addition to the appealing design, there’s an argument to be made that lifting the HomePod Mini off of your desk or table will help improve overall sound quality, but I can’t say for certain that’s the case. Also: How to reset your HomePod Mini Either way, if you’re looking for a quick and easy way to make your HomePod Mini look even better, and also to avoid the dreaded HomePod ring that some surfaces are prone to, the Balolo Tripod Stand is a good choice.
