The sound quality is absolutely awesome and the built quality is unmistakenly Apple best.

I’m certainly no voice assistant proponent. I much more enjoy having a nice speaker to use for AirPlay, and this fits the bill. It sounds and works much better with AirPlay than my HomePod Mini did, so it is a worthwhile upgrade in my opinion, especially since i can now use the Mini to control my Apple TV!

We put this right behind the couch on a shelf, and the fidelity and low end conpletely blow our Bose soundbar away for half the price. The fact that you can use it as a central point to your smart home is an added bonus.

I used them as a pair with Apple TV for the best experience. Sounds good but doesn't give you surround sound effects. They can be used on XSX and PS5 with eArc. I had a time where one disconnected from wifi and had to replug in for it today work again. Overall good if you are deep in the apple ecosystem.

The big dog HomePod has a fantastic sound with just one speaker!! I can't wait to buy another one to be a complete surround sound when listening to music, movies, and playing video games! The HomePod will not disappoint.

Its an amazing home entertainment feature! Sound quality and ability to rapidly connect to your phone is seamless, you can continue what you were listening too in the car and drop it on the homepod!

Siri is terrible. You will tell her to do one thing and she will do the complete opposite. The sound quality of the speaker is good, especially when you turn on Lossless Audio with Apple Music, but you’re better off buying a hi-fi speaker that you can do what you want with, because Apple refuses to allow auxiliary input so you’re stuck with Siri for the time being. I returned my Homepod and got the HomePod Mini, which is significantly cheaper and has a much better value.

There may be better speakers out there in regard to sound quality, but this is so much more. I sync my music to play through my whole house with a few of these and my AppleTv’s. Life changing!

So far, so good. This was a replacement for my first gen homepod. I feel that the older version packed a little more punch, or else this would have got five stars. Definatly not the most reasonably priced home speaker.

Even though I was having a bit of difficult setting the speaker up (make sure to have the homekit app installed), everything was great afterwards. Speaker sounds amazing and i would definitely try to buy one more another day to try the home speaker system.

The Homepod feels like an unfinished product, but good enough if you are already in the Apple ecosystem. Sound is decent, almost great, but lacks base and vocal clarity.
As for using the homepod as a voice assistant...go elsewhere. It is extremely unreliable, lacks any "smart" features, just uses dumb requests that need to be setup on their own. Not to mention Apples limited scope in terms of allowed devices.
Its definitely not the worst but FAR from the best.
