    A homekit hub with a weak little speaker attached

    It's a nice way to talk to Siri without using your phone, I guess. I just bought one so that I could connect my Hue and other smart home stuff to Siri/Homekit, and, for that, it has done its job. But that's pretty much all I use it for, since I can just talk to Siri through my watch or phone at any point, and I have much bigger, better sounding speakers to listen to music on. Now, if this thing had an aux output for connecting external speakers to it, it would be a 5-star device and wouldn't feel so overpriced. But, no, Apple wants you to drop big money on 2 of their bigger speakers if you want good stereo sound.

    Trying to set up a small home theater in basement on the Cheap with Apple TV so bought one of these to see how it sounded. Pretty good so will add another for stereo/surround sound.

    This Home Pod Mini has great sound and works well with all my other Apple products. I have three placed in different rooms of my home, and they work work well together or alone. A must have for creating the perfect smart home.

    Purchased this speaker on an open box special. In the beginning I wasn’t blown away but I quickly realized older music sounded okay. Once I played update higher quality music WOW did the speaker come alive; bass is room filling for a speaker it’s size. I have an amazon echo 2 and there is no comparison sound wise. Siri is adequate when using her for music or menial tasks. The more I listen to the speaker it just seems to sound better than the day before. It must learn your environment over time because it seems to fill the room more and more over time. I can only imagine what two or three of these speakers together sound like. I am not sure it is worth the steep $349 price tag but if you can get it for $300 or less don’t hesitate. Perfect Christmas gift!

    Good audio, buggy software.

    Has the usual amazing Apple product design, elegant look, amazing sound. Main flaw is the software being extremely buggy and laggy. iPhone 11, has connection stalls, volume controls on phone stop working, doesn’t connect to airplay on Mac reliably, “handoff” feature relies heavily on network connection.

    Good sound but disappointed by functionality

    Sadly, I have been growing increasingly disappointed with Apple products over the last 18-24 months. I had high hopes for this speaker. In terms of audio quality we enjoy the sound. Siri commands are nominal which is about what you'd expect at this point as Siri is fairly limited. Our biggest disappointment with the speaker is the ability to play music from various devices in the home on the network. It only syncs up with one primary itunes account and then has a strong default to only that music. There are times we'd like to more easily stream music from our amazon music or other audio from videos etc. and it just isn't very smooth or streamlined. Overall, we might purchase a second one as we had planned, but the first experience has definitely given us pause on this decision. We may ultimately decide to go ahead with it, but now we have more realistic expectations i suppose. Just seems like the user experience switching from phones or computer on the WiFi network in the house would have been easier and not feel so limiting.

    I love this speaker. It connects to my phone easily. The sound quality is amazing. It’s great for parties as well as just listening to relaxing music at home. I plan to purchase a second one.

    Great! It works exactly as you need. Its always there, responds well to Siri and looks great with most decore. Much easier on the eye than the homepod. It also has incredible sound dynamics! Comes in a variety of colors. We have both gray and white to match our home.

    This HomePod is a good purchase, a pair of these HomePod mini as a pair is a great purchase. I created a HomePod mini stereo pair and I could not be any more happier than I am already now.

    Easy instant music and it listens to me from across the room. The other day I was listening to an audio book and walked with my phone next to it and my phone asked if I wanted to transfer the audio to the home pod. That was a cool idea!

    Product arrived in great condition. Fairly easy to set up and pair within my home. The product also meshed well with my other homepods with ease. Sound is sufficient (though better when paired with other homepods in nearby rooms).

    A good compact speaker for the price. solid sound quality for its price(less bass than the Homepod, but to be expected) although my main purpose is to have an additional Siri microphone and speaker for use with Apple home.

    Little speaker with a big sound. Not quite as great as the original Homepod that ~350 but this is much more affordable. Works great with your iphone or Ipad or Mac. I have two of these and they are pefectly in sync between room to room, its amazing and it "Just Works".

    these little guys pack a punch. i have a few all over the house and they work very well. Just be careful what you say in front of them because they are always listening to your conversations and then what you talked about will start to show up in you social media feeds.

    I love this because it syncs to my Apple Music account and it is loud. The only cons I would say is that it is not wireless so you can’t take it with you nor can you talk to Siri as good it as you would with an Alexa on echo. This beats paying for the bigger HomePod and has the same capabilities.
