Customer Ratings & Reviews

Even though I bought it refurbished it has been the best. I enjoy be able to listen to music as its seprate from my phone audio.

Apple products are great I have been an iPhone user since the very first one, iPads, iMacs so worth the money and Apple has great customer service. However this home pod mini, bought 3 of them and a tech came out to install them after I returned the one she was here 1 1/2 hours couldn’t do it she said the Apple update was most likely causing this and it should be fixed after the next update is available out. I returned them went to Amazon and bought 2 new echos and the echo sub and it was the best thing I ever did and it cost less too. Had it set up in 5 minutes.

Great audio quality! Siri is exactly what you expect from you iPhone or any other Apple product with Siri. This is perfect for bedrooms and offices but for bigger rooms might want to look into the regular HomePod. If you’re in the Apple ecosystem including Apple Music this is a great addition!

The HomePod does everything I'd hoped for, and more. The sound is simply amazing, and the Siri interface controls my numerous "Smart Home" devices with ease. Set up was a snap. "Hey Siri, Is my garage door closed?" integrated so easily with the Insignia Garage Door kit. It listens... and listens well. "Hey Siri, set a timer for 35 minutes." "Hey Siri, how many teaspoons in a cup?" Coupled with Apple Music, any song or group that comes to mind is brought to life. I can't say enough good things about it, except I'm not quite sure how I got along without it before!

I'm very impressed with the HomePod mini. Although it is disappointing that the larger HomePod is no longer available from Apple, this device is very capable, with sound quality outperforming bluetooth speakers twice the size or larger. This is my first experience with AirPlay and with a HomeKit assistant, and I am impressed with the ease of setup and use. Audio quality is very important to me. This is by far the best quality sound I have ever heard out of a 3-inch speaker. That said, where this speaker lacks is in high-end clarity. Esses, cymbals, etc. are a little bit fuzzy. Frequency range is amazing, with bass clear and even all the way into the lowest tones. Spoken word is very clear. The overall character of the sound is even. As a stereo pair the sound quality is better than our $300 soundbar/subwoofer or our $500 bluetooth speaker from another brand.

Overall the HomePod Mini is very good. The only issue I have found is this device's Siri has twice now had trouble turning on my LIFX smart bulb. I was still able to control the bulb via HomeKit as well as Siri on my iPhone 12 Pro so I dont know why the HomePod would have any issue. I reset the HomePod twice now (each time after the issue) and it appears to have fixed it for now.

I got these since my new house doesn't have the hard wired speakers with volume control in every room like my old house did AND because I used to stream from my Mac to my 2006 Apple TV that house L & R outputs that I ran to my receiver. When that died, I was unable to have "whole house" music on, which is how I mostly listened. I have the HomePod, which sounds much better, but is of course more expensive. These are great to put into other rooms so I can still hear music without having to have one main source of music coming from the den up really loud. There were some initial problems with them that might be because I'm not an Apple Music subscriber, but I got through that. The only thing is that I wish I could control volume on them individually from my phone. Maybe I can, but haven't fond it yet.

If you are deep in the apple ecosystem, like I am, you will appreciate the HomePod mini. Not only does it give you access to Siri, but it also tells you the temperature and humidity in the room and allows you to use it as a speaker for an Apple TV. In this instance, I purchased this HomePod to use in the kitchen for timer and to listen to music. This smart speaker is a great addition to my HomeKit accessories.

Amazing sound quality compared to other voice assistants. Easy to use, intuitive with the Apple ecosystem, and good cord length. Siri sends information to your phone more than making statements out loud like Alexa, which can be inconvenient at times. The cord does not detach from the device and I was not a fan of that, as any cord repairs would mean a whole unit replacement, and the integration with Spotify does not feel as native or intuitive as if you use Apple Music. If you want an assistant primarily for music, this has the best sound quality, however if you want an assistant for the assistance, Alexa outperforms Siri in terms of information it’s able to display and provide, witch a more consumer-friendly price-point, and is cheaper to repair/replace.

Bought 2 of these, tentatively. Having previously had a pair of the full-size HomePods, I was skeptical. At the price point, these are a better value than the big ones. If you have the room layout, you’d be better buying 4 of these than a pair of bigger version.

This one is better than the first one I got. I responds more and I love it.

[Employee of bestbuy] Excellent sound quality for the size and works really well with other apple products

Was a give for my daughter she is happy and she enjoy music

I want sure how well it would work for surround sound for my Apple TV and with my other HomePod mini but it works so amazing

love that I can play anything on my phone onto the homepod. Google and Alexa don't let you do that. I would highly recommend if you have other Apple products!

As with everything apple, easy to install and use. And i chain multiple pods up in a permanant or temporary group which is a game changer for me.

I recently purchased the Space Gray HomePod after thinking about it for a few weeks, and finally pulled the trigger. I'm glad I did. Since I have many other Apple products, it was a no brainer. Even though it doesn't do as much as other smart assistants at the moment, I really think that it will in the future, with more HomeKit enabled devices and once AirPlay2 rolls out. This speaker really sounds great, and can go much louder than most people will even play it. But even at high volumes, it still sounds great with no distortion. Highly recommend for those that are already heavily entrenched within the Apple ecosystem.

Makes HomeKit easy and far more useful. Better than having several different hubs for HomeKit. Also have great sound quality. Love the intercom system. No more shouting for family from different floors.

The Apple HomePod produces the best sound that I found in a smart speaker. It is very intuitive and easy to set up. The design is excellent. I am impressed with the premium quality audio.

It took a while to purchase the Mini, wasn't sure it would improve my Apple TV's sound quality? It did, greatly, such a difference and there are so many more features you get with the devices. Would recommend buying two for the best sound quality.
