Customer Ratings & Reviews

Looks nice, Sounds good and integrates well with other apple products. Handoff feature works great

Works as expected and at a super good price. Controls all our smart home stuff. Worth it completely if you use Home Kit.

This is the last piece of smart speaker that I bought - largely to go with my iMac for music but quickly became my favorite over Alexa and Google. I don’t use a smart speaker for every thing I do in my routine life such as news, music etc...but since I have lot of Apple subscriptions, this comes up to be the best addition for the apple ecosystem. But the best part of this speaker is the audio quality. I love the sound and it is unlike any other smart speaker in that size category. It syncs well with all apple devices and I really like the minimalist design.

Set up was quick and easy. Tie in to phone and smart devises easy as well. Music sounds great on it. Siri responds well to questions or controlling smart devices.

HomePod mini is a great product. It has a amazing sound and bass to it which I am into. I think the HomePod or my phone glitches sometimes. I hold my phone next to the HomePod and it takes a while to start playing from my phone to the HomePod. This is a product to get if your into a smart speaker/ good quality sound.

I absolutely love my original HomePod (the big one), so when Apple released the mini, figured it would be great to have additional wireless speakers to place wherever and try out a multi-room audio experience. The sound quality is surprisingly good considering how small they are! Comparable bluetooth or smart speakers I have heard sound like they're going to blow up when they get close to reaching their upper volume limit, but the HomePod minis have barely any distortion at their highest output! They can get really loud too! The bass is present, but not room-vibrating, and the sound is very balanced. I use a pair of HomePod minis connected to my Apple TV and the audio sounds great for casting music or watching TV. Since these are purely wireless speakers (there are no inputs other than the attached power cable), I have fairly frequently had issues with audio cutouts or lag when casting music through Airplay. Sometimes the music just stops completely and starts playing through my phone instead. Not a super seamless experience, but could come down to router issues. There are times when I cannot even select the speakers because they disappear from my Airplay menu, even though I am connected to the same Wifi network they are on. Important note too – If you can't cast audio through Apple's Airplay protocol (so basically only through Apple Devices), you won't be able to get these to work – they lack bluetooth audio functionality! Plus, Siri is not very helpful when asking for requests. I would say 60% of the time it will be able to 1. Recognize what I say and 2. be able to do the request I asked. Lots of "hmmm, I'm not quite sure" or "could you say that again?" responses. After a couple of years of software updates, you would think the experience would be slightly better, but smart home assistants still have a lot of evolving to do. They still don't work well with music streaming services other than Apple Music (at least when asking to play a certain song or artist), so that is a continuous burden since I do not use Apple's services. For these reasons, I basically only use these for the purpose of listening to music or casting through my Apple TV audio. They sound great, but there are a lot of software optimizations that need to be made for these to work as seamlessly as they are advertised to.

The sound quality is so good for such a tiny package. The homepod mini easily integrates with your Apple product.

Hey. Hey... Surprisingly good sound for what it is…particularly good for room to room intercom…very nice with a little bit of a learning curve for home use features. But as an audio music source pretty great

The sound is amazing for such a small speaker - but the real power is the integration with HomeKit and Siri. I can turn on my TV, lights, etc. without moving from my chair. I also use it as the audio fro my Apple TV and it is very good.

This HomePod doesn’t sound as good as the original l, but it is so much smaller that it fits into decor much better. It responds to all the standard Siri commands and knows when I’m talking to it instead of my watch. Also really love transferring playback from my phone to the HomePod when I get home.

In general I like it although trying to connect to radio station on app on my iPhone at times takes some doing as the pod seems to prefer the songs on my playlist. Also, at times the connection gets lost unexplainably. I haven’t used it for anything else. It does have good sound

I love apple products in general! The sound is perfect. I just wish it was wireless at some point because now i just have to keep it plugged in. I know its mainly a homepod, but still it wouldnt hurt if it was wireless. Over all i would recommend it. Shape and texture is so good!

Bought for my husband for Christmas. Works great and sounds great. Just be careful if you have more than one phone attached to it and are near it. Mine always tries to connect when my husband already has his going.

This speaker looks and sounds great! Very easy to set up and use. You pretty much need an iPhone for this device to work though. I use this also with my smart lights and it works great!

It’s a great product. It’s awesome to control so mi ch with just voice. WELL worth $99.

I added this device to my Apple echo system and I have enjoyed it. The speaker is very good for the size of the device. Siri works well for all kinds of things including controlling my many home automation devices. I would recommend this device.

HomePod mini and HomePod 2 are so simple and pair fantastically with Phillip Hue lights or Arlo Cameras. 10/10, worth the price!

[Employee of bestbuy] I bought a pair for my sons room and they have been absolutely fantastic for him and he even connected them to his tv

Expensive for what it does, but also functions as a Home-Kit Base (bluetooth access), sound is pretty darn good for the size but if you're only using it for its speaker function, you might as well look into larger speakers (soundbars for example) for similar price (when on sale).

This is the first one of these we have bought. The set up was easy and works great with iPhone. Automatically sync your settings from iPhone and works great with Siri. It allows multiple user to sync with it and recognizes when that user is near. I plan on purchasing more of these to set up in other areas of the house, so that when we move around it will follow us. It even works as an intercom to talk to other users in other parts of the house. I did purchase this one from Best Buy and then found out that they no longer give reward points for Apple products, so I will purchase all my Apple devises directly from Apple. If you have a Apple credit card and put your purchase on it you get 6% back unless you do a 0% payment plan, then you only get 3% back. Still a pretty good deal.
