    This is my second HomePod and I love them both. The price is a bit high, but the sound quality is phenomenal. The apple smart architecture is seamless for all my devises.

    It’s Apple. It great. I had a problem where it keep loosing connection but learned it was my WIFI. I upgraded my WiFi system to one that can handle a lot of devices and they work perfect now.

    Sound quality is awesome and it’s very easy to pair with an Apple tv. My one gripe is that the surround sound isn’t very immersive and probably really needs a second HomePod to really work well

    Easy set up. Sound is good for the most part. Maybe I just have not figure this out yet but it does seem like the highs are very high. Sounds a little muffled when playing music.

    Great improvement in sound where mids and highs are balanced with the low end to provide a real acoustical result that gets you closer to the music.

    Easily 2 to 3 times better than any produt like it. If youre debating about this or something else…dont think twice. I bought the bose version for around $200 a couple years ago. Bose didnt cut come close.

    I am a Apple guy. I have purchased lots of Apple products. The reason for a two rating is connectivity. I purchased 2 of them. I could not get the HomePods to turn on with my Apple tv, iPad, or iPhone with any sort of consistency. When they were connected they would cut out on a regular basis. Very frustrating. They sound good. Wifi with any other electronics in the home are not the problem. I spent $600 for two of them. I returned them to Best Buy. I have never returned a Apple product,

    these are seamless and easy to configure. They sound processed but otherwise fairly good. I am not that impressed and kind of on the fence. Unfortunately, two homepods 2 seem very overpriced. Also, the lack of I/O makes it more difficult (but not completely impossible if youre technically savvy) to use them with non-Apple or older systems. The biggest issue i had was with best buy customer service. Because if a system glitch, i had go sait almosf two hours in the store for their system. And i also had fo call in to their tech team to clear it up. I dont think the folks working here know what theyre doing. So part of the review is just to reflect on the seemingly endless hassles I’ve experienced with best buy despite shelling out for totaltech.
