HomePod Mini Teardown Reveals Non-Removable USB-C Power Cord

A teardown of Apple’s newly released HomePod Mini has revealed that its USB-C power cord, which plugs into a separate power adapter, is non-removable. According to MacRumors, the teardown has also found that that the HomePod Mini’s power cord is not replaceable once removed.

As opposed to the standard HomePod, which comes with a power cord that can be pulled out with enough force and then reattached, pulling the HomePod Mini’s power cord in an attempt to remove it can permanently damage the speaker.
