After the last update, we can now use the HomePod Mini connected to an external battery

2020 nevertheless has been a great year for Apple, but 2021 is expected to be even better. One of the devices we saw this year was the new HomePod Mini, one of the most interesting and affordable devices to enter the apple ecosystem. And it seems that Apple is very interested in the HomePod Mini, and that we fill the house with them ... Now we just found out that After the last software update, we can now use the HomePod Mini with 18W chargers and external batteries. Keep reading that we give you all the details of this update.

We must remember that until now, Apple only allowed us to use the 20W charger that included the HomePod Mini, if you had an 18W charger like the one that came with the iPhone 11 Pro, remember that the HomePod Mini carries a USB cable -C, we couldn't use it with our new speaker. Now, after the 14.3 update of the HomePod Mini, we can now use an 18W charger, not all but the vast majority ... Several users have reported that Apple's 18W chargers work with the HomePod Mini, Aukey chargers, and even external batteries, or powerbanks, from the Cygnett brand (surely also from other brands), something that is very interesting since it will allow us to use the HomePod Mini in places where we do not have electricity outlets.

How to check that you are using version 14.3 on your HomePod Mini? Just open the Home app, click on the house icon in the upper left corner, house settings, and click on Software Update. You can check the version of your HomePod and if necessary you can update it from this same place. Then you can go testing the different chargers that you have at home, like this you can use the 20W of the HomePod Mini for your new iPhone 12 for example, or even take it out to the terrace with an external battery.
