Customer Ratings & Reviews

I’ve been wanting to get a HomePod for a few years now and finally gave in. It’s super simple to set up and use and works great with HomeKit smart home products. It may be pretty small but this speaker has great audio quality compared to my previous echo spot and google home mini.

I now own five of these HomePods, which are scattered around the home. They punch out clear, rich sound and are surprisingly loud when you need them to be. The perfect form factor for smaller rooms, or where space is limited, plus all of the benefits of Siri. I highly recommend these HomePods.

Love this speaker, works better with another one. Gives you a nice stereo sound without breaking the bank. Would really love to get a gift card

I have had my eye on the HomePod since it was released. For me the cost of entry was always a bit too high. I finally caved when Best Buy had a sale and picked one up. Comparing it to the two echo dots that I have at home, the HomePod was in a whole other league. Sound was crisp and filled the room, and sounded great in multiple locations, due to the HomePods ability to optimize it sound based on the room. Being an Apple Music subscriber, using Siri on the HomePod to play music and playlists that it would think I would like has been nothing short of a treat. I find the music recommendations great and the sound quality unmatched in a smart speaker. Although Siri has gotten a bad reputation, I find Siri is more than adequate for most queries and actions. Again comparing it to my two echo dots, I actually prefer Siri for 99% of things. I have found Siri to have less hangups, especially when making music requests. Apples app “Siri shortcuts “does make customizing what you request from Siri better. However the app can be a bit daunting to novice users. And Siri’s response when responding to custom commands can sometimes be robotic. I have found that Siri is far quicker than Alexa at controlling smart home devices. Having loved the HomePod so much, when they were on sale again, I picked a second one up. I set them up in stereo mode and was again very impressed by the sound that it put out. Ideally, I would have a HomePod on each floor of my home. Due to the higher price of the HomePod, the cost can be restrictive to making that a reality. While I have two set up on one floor in a stereo pair, it is easy enough to move one or both to another floor or a room, plug it in, and have it play without doing anything else. The HomePod works best with Apple Music, but with the upcoming update in the Fall of 2020, Apple will be allowing third party music support on the HomePod. Although it is possible to do so now by air playing to the speaker from your phone, you must still rely on the phone to do so. The new update should allow third party services to run natively. The HomePod is a device for people that want smart home control, with the advantage of privacy that Apple offers, along with a love and appreciation for music. If music is not a priority, there are currently cheaper alternatives to dedicate to smart home control. For music lovers and those in the Apple ecosystem, the HomePod is a great choice.

The sound of this speaker is so much clearer than anything else on the market that’s of similar size and price point. The price point makes this an excellent gift idea for anyone in the family, especially if they already own an Apple device.

Great speaker. Pairs with lights well. This makes four for me now.

If you have an Apple TV or iPhone/iPad this is a must have. Handing off music and call from other Apple devices is a breeze. I put mine behind the couch and it’s synced with the TV so movies and shows sound great! Plus since Siri is built in, controlling my lights or other HomeKit devices is easy.

I really like Apple HomePod Minis. This is my second one, and I really wanted orange. I bought this as an open box. It as supposed to be in like new condition, but was missing the power supply. My options were to return it and buy a new one at regular price, buy a $20+ power supply, or keep it. I still got a good price, and used a power supply I had on hand. Anyhow, for what it is, I like the sound and if you have the Apple ecosphere, this dovetails nicely. Great colour as well! Less stars because open box was missing power supply.

So awesome! My wife kept pushing for this while we were in store to pick up other items; I thought it an unnecessary luxury. Perhaps unnecessary for some, but as an Apple Music family, this little device has been wonderful! And reasonably priced, which is weird for Apple. ;)

When Apple announced they were discontinuing the original HomePod, I was disappointed and quickly ordered another one to pair with the one I bought a year ago. I really wanted a set to stereo pair with our Apple TV. The sound quality is outstanding for such a small speaker. We have it set as the default audio output on our Apple TV 4K and it works like a charm. Far superior sound to the TV speakers (admittedly, not hard to do), convenient Siri integration, intercom to other Homepods in the house, and designed with a sleek look I don’t mind having on the mantle, as opposed to a long sound-bar. Sad to see them be discontinued.

Excellent product I already have the full sized HomePod the small size of mini Is extremely convenient especially for bedside tables and also turning it in to A full theatrical system utilizing four minis And a full-size HomePod. Quality extremely high meds and Lows crisp and clear.

I was completely amazed and shocked with the sound quality! Love my HomePod’s!

This isn’t for the audio-geeks but it will impress others when you pair this with an appletv and another homepod for a good surround-sound system with no wiring.

I love the HomePod mini. Having a HomePod, I purchased the mini before even hearing the audio quality. I was blown away at the sound, clarity, and power this little guy offered. It is a great way of putting music and the power of Siri all throughout the house. I plan on getting several more!

Great connectivity, can hear across 800 sq. foot open floor plan! Pro-Tip: Buy mounts to install them out of the way with cable management. Available on Amazon.

This tinny speaker will impress everyone. The quality of the sound is clear and the bass strong enough for it size. I bought the orange one for its bright color. I love it. Overall I would like to add more power to its volume. The interaction with Siri through it is really fun.

Excellent Apple mini HomePod. Sound is great and easy to use. Bought as open box and was in perfect condition.

I had one setting in front of my computer monitor and really liked the way jazz vocalists sounded like they were singing across a small room from me. Bought myself a 2nd one as a splurge birthday present and what a difference it makes (as a stereo pair). I have them setting about 5 feet apart on either side of my monitor and am very impressed at the sound stage they create. I have a pair of Polk Audio (70's vintage) studio monitors with a 100 watt per channel amp, and can easily stream in either direction, but find myself listening to the pair of HomePod minis. Hard to believe the sound Apple gets out of a speaker with only 1 (computational audio?) driver. HomePod Mini also adds thread support as a home automation hub for Apple HomeKit. This was just a fringe benefit I could use with Home accessories as I moved the hub off an Apple TV.

Debated between the mini and the bigger version, but very glad we ended up with this one! Easy to use, and I was able to connect multiple people who live in the home to the homepod.
