    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.

    Upgraded a few of my 1st gen HomePods with these 2nd gen. No brainer upgrade for anyone with HomeKit devices. This new HomePod responds so much quicker. Audio quality still sounds great! Also nice to have a humidity and temperature sensor built in to be able to do automations.

    Connectivity among the apple device are pristine. However, it occasionally has a disconnection issue, and I’m still waiting to find out why

    We have 2 that works together. We use apple music and they work flawlessly together. We did have issues with disconnecting but that could be user error, not sure. Would recommend

    Amazing! With the caveat that it is only amazing in a stereo pair. One by itself sounds good, but two is amazing. Can it replace a sound bar? Yes. Replace a full surround sound home theater set up? No. For music, especially Apple Music, it cannot be beat.

    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!

    Very full sound. I’m going to buy a second one to go on the other side of my TV. I was going to get a sound bar, but I believe two of these will produce a better fuller sound.

    This HomePod packs a punch when it comes to the sound. It sounded remarkable when it came to the music and the spoken word on movies and shows. It sounded so good we purchased a second one, and an Apple TV 4K! We got rid of our Bose SoundTouch 300.

    Im using thr ability to feed audio to a pair of these through ARC and an Apple TV to serve as my TV speakers. They sound great and look nice next to my TV. The ARC audio ability works well as well and all of my other devices play through them fine. Super happy overall!

    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.

    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.
