## Key points

- The Mini 2 combines an indoor hoop with a 19-inch screen.
- It offers shot tracking, online challenges and streaming apps.
- Some features are buggy, and Netflix is absent.

## Summary

The Huupe Mini 2 is a door-mounted indoor basketball hoop with a screen, camera and online features that track shots and host games. A review found it entertaining as a casual diversion, but said its broad mix of functions and unreliable features can distract from the basic basketball experience.

The 19-inch display sits within a 25-inch backboard, and the package includes a small inflatable ball, remote and USB-C charger. The unit connects to Wi-Fi without a dedicated app; Huupe says this model has a faster processor, larger battery rated for four hours and improved shot tracking. Its games include solo scoring, timed challenges and multiplayer modes, while some features require online friends; the gesture-based Huupe Flyers game repeatedly failed calibration. Streaming apps include YouTube, Disney+ and Prime Video, but not Netflix.
