Apple's smarter, more capable version of Siri is expanding to the HomePod, according to details found by code sleuth pdfu. According to pdfu, HomePod Software 27 includes the system behind Siri AI, called "Linwood," along with new status lights in the Siri AI colors.

Since HomePod Software 27 is out and Siri AI isn't available on existing HomePods, it's possible support will be limited to new HomePod models. The new status lights emphasize white, blue and orange, matching Siri AI's palette on other devices.

Rumors suggest Apple is working on an updated HomePod mini, and the main upgrade will be a faster processor. Apple is expected to equip it with an S9 chip or newer, and it's possible the HomePod mini could even get the latest S11 chip that's in the Apple Watch Series 12.

The HomePod mini isn't expected to get a redesign, but along with an updated processor, Apple could add its N1 networking chip, a newer Ultra Wideband chip, and updated colors. All of the new products, HomePod mini included, could launch as soon as October.
