Apple continues to sell Apple TV 4K and HomePod mini in the U.S., but the delivery estimate shown in the Apple Store can vary by configuration, color and delivery address. The live Store estimate is therefore more useful than a general availability claim.
The reported estimates apply to the U.S. online store at the time of the check and can change without an announcement. A color being unavailable online does not necessarily mean it is unavailable at every retail location, and a longer delivery estimate is not the same as an order cancellation.
Apple has not connected the current order estimates to rumored hardware. Previous availability changes have occurred without a product refresh, so the stock signal alone cannot establish that a new Apple TV or HomePod mini is imminent. Readers should make a purchase decision based on the current device and delivery estimate rather than an unconfirmed replacement.

Apple’s Apple TV 4K store page and HomePod mini store page are the direct sources to check before ordering. The store asks customers to select the relevant model or color and delivery method, then gives delivery or pickup information. Apple’s technical specifications list HomePod mini in blue, yellow, midnight, white and orange.
Availability can vary by color, configuration, delivery address and pickup location. Apple has not announced a new Apple TV or HomePod mini in this store material, so a delivery estimate alone does not establish that a replacement is imminent. It only describes the option selected at that time.
Buyers who need a device quickly should compare the delivery estimate with nearby Apple Store pickup and authorized retailers, then check the exact model before ordering. The current signals are limited to order availability, not specifications for a future product.
