Customer Ratings & Reviews

The HomePod mini has some improvements over the HomePod: it's much less expensive and it will allow you to use it as a smart speaker that will interface with your other Apple devices and apps, including other HomePod minis, Apple TV and the Apple Home app. The main drawback of the mini is that the sound is not nearly as full and complex as the original. Apple has clearly made a strategic decision to develop a consumer product that will be competitive with Amazon Echo smart speakers, and sound quality is a calculated sacrifice for market penetration. The mini allows the creation of "scenes" along with the Home app so that you can, for example, program your Apple TV to turn on and play a favorite channel when you say, "Hey Siri, Arrive Home." The mini requires some patience: not everything is intuitive and to take full advantage of this new member of the Apple ecosystem you'll have to invest some research.

Awesome sound and easy setup. I got two and I would really prefer it. One on each side of the tv. In a room that’s about 30 by 25 foot. Sounds great. Best Buy shipped it faster the Apple could do I ordered through Best Buy instead.

These integrate into the Apple Home environment pretty easily and it is nice to be aboe to put rhem in different rooms. I wish they were a bit bassier but they sound good for their size.

I needed a speaker for my MacBook Air M2 to better hear on FaceTime. I tried another speaker but found it wasn't for the MacBook. A little research took me to this Apple HomePod mini. It took a bit of steps to get it connected but viola.. it works wonderfully! I highly recommend it for a computer.

I’d take this over the Original HomePod ..it’s more functional and it doesn’t take up much room. And if your in the Apple ecosystem you will definitely enjoy this. The Sound from this tiny speaking is The selling point.

Considering the size, this is a powerful little speaker! I have a few original homepods which are amazing sound system. The HomePod Mini adds more high quality sound to additional rooms at affordable pricing! Highly recommend!!!

I have two of these now and paired them for stereo. They sound good, especially considering the size. I also use them with Siri for smart home control. I have had them for 5+ months with no problems.

Great sound no it listens to me when I talk to it. Hey Siri! I like it. Super easy to put on music instantly. Just ask it to and tell it what type of music you want to hear.

Have 2 of them paired. They sound amazing. Also i love that they are a backup home hub

I have really enjoyed this and will probably purchase others. I wish Apple offered a screen such as its competitors, but... Anyway, it offers good sound and I like the size and price of it.

Great sound quality for the size of this HomePod. Could never bring myself to buy the big one but at this price point it definitely exceeds the google home and Amazon Alexa devices. Also works seamless with my other Apple products.

This was my second HomePod mini so to have stereo sound when playing music. As with anything Apple, easy set up, and the sound is excellent.

Love it. It has great sound. I use in my bathroom when I get ready to go out. Thank you.

The quality works great works right at the box. Easy to set up with new iPhone works great with Apple Music.

Sounds great, but it could be a little louder for a space larger than a bathroom. I have two of them and they occasionally lag on the communication between them, or completely fail. I use it primarily for music.

It came in PERFECT CONDITION. There was literally no dents or anything, not even on the box. Works amazingly, and no problems. Would recommend.

It is a great smart speaker when it wants to cooperate but every once in a while it will decide to cause trouble with connectivity. Usually it works fine except sometimes when you airdrop music from APPLE MUSIC it will decide to stop music randomly or decide to not play it even though on same wifi, unplugging it and plugging it back seems to fix it but can be annoying occassionally.

Love it for my office. It is perfect size and color and has easy connection with my phone and desktop.

Great sound, and it works seemlessly with my other Apple devices. It is small enough to blend with its surroundings, too. Set up was a breeze…just place it near your iPhone and it’s done!

Great sound! I like that it can be paired with my iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV. The only place I feel it falls short is being able to use it as a stereo pair with my 2018/2020 update Mac Mini (I can either use one or the other) unless I update my Mac to Big Sur which I am not ready to do yet.
