    Ordered 2 of these so I can setup in stereo…sounds so much better than the 1st version. I loved the 1st version, and these sound even better. Easy to setup, and love the new removal plug, which makes moving around and adjusting to your room so much easier. Music sounds amazing…you can def turn these up without and distortion. Super happy this purchase.

    Bought two and it brings my apartment to life! We have about 800 sq feet in our apartment living room/kitchen combined and two of these speakers work together to elevate our overall entertainment needs.

    I LOVE this speaker. I have two so I can play it in stereo and it sounds great. I like that I can use them as a pair or alone but highly recommend using them together. I am totally hooked. So easy to set up too.

    Best Speaker of the Year Apple Homepod

    sonically, it delivers impressively rich bass depth for its size and can be paired with a second speaker for true stereo audio. While the second-gen HomePod isn't flawless, it's a well-designed product that earns our Editors' Choice award for Apple-first smart speakers

    The sound is great for its size. Siri while not the best does a good job at picking up your voice. Even at max volume.

    I bought 2 of these to use as a pair with my Apple 4k tv. I tested it out watching Top Gun: Maverick and Pink Floyd: Delicate Sound of Thunder. The surround sound effect was effective and bass is surprisingly good from a pair of small speakers. It did not sound as good as a Sonos arc with subwoofer and surrounds, but great for a small room set up.

    Expensive speaker that only like Apple Music.

    Best Buy was great. No issues with them. Not a big fan of this imperfect speaker though. The sound is great but if you want to play Spotify it only works when your phone is on and not locked. Super pain in the rump. Needed this for remote access to the HomeKit which works fun. Pretty expensive hub for a speaker that only likes Apple Music. Should have gone with the google or Amazon platform. Cheaper and much more user friendly

    I replaced multiple soundbars with the HomePod Mini speaker combo last year and was so happy I could hardly wait for the new HomePods for the Dolby Atmos effect as well as greater volume. Apple did not disappoint! I hope that they will add a sub-woofer that connects to the HomePod in the near future fort the added bass kick.

    I have 2 hooked up as a stereo pair with an Apple TV. Super easy atmos set up for tv watching. I had a sound bar before but I like the sound of this better for both tv watching and especially for just listening to music. Apple does cost but you get a well made product that is reliable and easy to use.

    This is my 2nd HomePod Speaker. The sound quality is excellent and I use these to add to my whole house music system. Is it pricey? Yes, but I feel like I have a quality product.

    This is the most seamless sound bar I have ever used for a smart tv or smart device. If you have an Apple TV it just……works. I mean, like right out of the box it wanted to setup and connect to my phone and Apple TV. It is fantastic.

    Upgraded to HomePod from Amazon Alexa

    I replaced my Amazon Alexa devices with the HomePod devices, and I couldn’t be happier. The sound quality is amazing on the HomePod. At first you want it to be a bit better for the price, but it seems to learn the space and adjust the sound quality and output based on the space overtime so it just keeps getting better. For voice commands it’s very good, as you would expect from Siri. Sometimes it doesn’t get things as correct as Amazon Alexa did. But overall 10 out of 10 would recommend. It does work with Apple, HomeKit, and all smart devices, which is great. I have hue lights everywhere, and I love being able to control them with my HomePod and just by asking Siri to adjust the lights by color Brightness , etc. I do hope Apple improves HomeKit capabilities, and Apple home as it is not terribly intuitive or useful. But that is not to do with the HomePod, which is great.
