Q: How many microphones does the HomePod mini have?

Q: What do I do if the package was stolen. What are my options?
A: Nothing you can do, best buy will refuse to accept repsonsibilty, tell you to file a police report, and ban you from making any online orders to the address. They'll tell you to work with local police to resolve the issue while closing the case and refusing to escalate or properly investigate. My suggestion is to never order anything for delivery with best buy.
A: I found it comparable to the Sonos 3. Haven't played with it too much yet but it's pretty nice so far. Siri works for what I need it to do. I like Apple products, if you don't like Apple, there is no convincing.
Q: Can I connect this to my apple tv? or tv in general and use it as a home theater system as well?
A: Yes, you can connect it to your Apple TV and use it as a soundbar.
A: It is not battery powered. It requires to be plugged into an outlet to function.
Q: Is it better than the Google Home Mini? And is it worth it?
A: I asked myself the same question. This is more comparable with Google Max then google mini or google home. This video explains well all of the details and comparisons with Amazon Echo devices and Google Home devices - https://youtu.be/qkS6MnuvbCc Homepod is like Sonos+google mini or is a none brand description, a Wifi Speaker + Smart Speaker. Amazon Echo and Google Home/Mini are Smart speakers with the ability to play sound, not good quality sound.
