Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this to put in the kitchen so I can still hear what I’m watching on the TV because the speakers aren’t too great. Setup was very easy, as you’d expect from Apple, but the best thing is the sound quality. I was incredibly surprised by how clear it is but mostly the by the bass. Obviously it’s not much compared to the original HomePod but it still packs a punch. If you’ve been debating on it at any point, just go for it. The price is perfect for what you’re getting and you won’t be disappointed.

Pretty good product. Sound is good and really loud. Easy to set up. Only complaint is that it doesn’t always connect like I want it to. Also a noticeable delay before Siri responds.

ok if you haven't noticed i buy a lot of apple products! I am replacing other brands/products at work. Apple to apple just works so flawlessly. these are amazing. I didn't realize that using these in a work setting with all of our ipads, iphones, and macs, that it would come up on everything when its playing music. I think that is on me though i havent searched out changing settings and fine tuning. but they sound amazing and are super simple to set up. love them

Sound quality and ease of use is in matched apple makes the home kit very easy to us and understand I just wish more products where compatible The sound of these little speakers is immersive and sounds great doesn't sound like a cheap junky speaker it has deep bass and great clarity

Speaker is great. Setup is easy and ties in IOS home app easily. Price is good and more than one unit can be used for intercom system.

Can't say enough good things about these. The sound in a stereo pair is just mind blowing for such a small device. I do love the original HomePod and I wish that Apple wouldn't have quit making them, but these are very good and will be happy with them till the new HomePod full-size comes back. Only con is a delay when using them as external speakers with a Mac. Other than that perfection.

Great sound. Easy to setup. small size. Nice color.

Good product. Decent sound and interactive siri came with it. Thanks for bestbuy good for good deals!

I already have a big HomePod and love it, this mini I just bought for my basement workshop does not disappoint. The sound is full and plenty to hear well at maximum volume. It won't blow you out of the room but it has a decent high volume and the sound is not lacking for anything. Speaking to have it take notes, set alarms, timers, add items to lists is a great feature you will actually use a lot! Good sound, small or not it's got good sound and I'm very pleased with it and setup is such a breeze with an iPad, or iPhone.

If you have an iPhone this little speaker is for you, if you have a Apple TV this is definitely for you. If you have Apple a Music music subscription, what are you waiting for? I bought one and was amazed at what was coming out of this tiny thing. I was so impressed I went back and got another! Stereo sounds twice as good as one lol. You can even link more then just 2! Set up is stupidly easy. You hold your iPhone above it and it automatically sets up like AirPods do. If they had this for $199 originally I would have gotten it years ago!

I bought a set of these for my living room to use as a stereo pair. I love using them with my Apple TV, and I can use them in somewhat of a surround sound way by also having my sound bar selected for sound output. Very good addition to my home theater setup. The blue looks awesome with everything else in my living room. Plus the other features are great for just listening to music and asking Siri to set timers and what the weather’s like today.

Great sound, for such a small product, love the color

So easy to set up and easy to use! I’m a homebody and enjoy having this speaker blasting whatever podcast or playlist I want throughout the day. Insane quality!

Amazing sound in this little package. Almost as good as its bigger sibling. Don't think of it as a competitor for Amazon and Google devices. Amazon's primary goal is to sell you stuff. Google's primary goal is to sell you (your data, that is). Their "assistants" are pretty good at what they do but the speakers don't sound all that great. Apple is about the music; they don't sell your data. Siri does what it's supposed to do. HomePod and HomePod mini are for music and they work beautifully and sound great.

Works great, decent sound quality. Sometimes Siri doesn't hear me if it's a loud room.

If you are in to the Apple system, the mini is perfect for small rooms with plenty of available volume. While it cannot reproduce deep base, unlike it’s bigger brother it does not try to produce bass sounds that are out of it’s normal range, which is a plus. As long as you don’t crank it all the way up, the sound is very good given its price point. If you use IOT devices using Apple’s HomeKit, it can be your required hub and enable vast improvement in Bluetooth connected devices that use Thread.

Grabbed three of these and have not been disappointed. I never would spring for the original HomePod due to the cost, but the price on these allowed me to have one in the den, living room, and the bedroom. When you have them all playing in sync it’s the easiest ‘whole home audio’ you can get. Handoff between my phone, Powerbeats pro headphones, and the mini isn’t as smooth as I like but it doesn’t take much to get it corrected when it does mess up. One of my best audio purchases in years.

Great sound. Awesome color. Easy set up. What more can you want?

I bought a pair of HomePods from Best Buy right before Christmas when they were on sale for $199 apiece. At that price, the ability to play music (directly from Apple Music or via AirPlay from an iPhone or iPod) or sound from an Apple TV more than justified the price for the pair. (I have them set up to play as a stereo pair.) A good stereo would cost as much and saddle me with unsightly speaker wires. And the bass on these is just awesome, particularly when you figure the relatively small size. I liked them enough that a few days after Christmas, I decided to pick up a second pair to use in another room. However, at that point the price had gone up to $300. They are nice speakers but at $200 apiece they are pricey; at $300 apiece they are way overpriced. My advice. Wait until they go on sale for $199 either at Best Buy or at another retailer that Best Buy will price match. As for Siri functionality, I was pleasantly surprised. She can hear me even when the HomePods are playing music pretty loudly. And most of the basic commands I’ve tried work well. Voice control of HomeKit accessories seems brisker than the same command given to Alexa. However, when I ask Siri to turn on a group of lights she does fine but when I ask her to turn off the same group, she replies, “I can’t turn off a scene.” Odd. Where Siri still falls down is on knowledge-based requests. She still tends to want to send you the information as a link to a website you can view on your iPhone or other screen. Since HomePod has no screen, these requests cannot be fulfilled. The basic bottom line is these are great speakers when on sale but overpriced at full price. Smart speaker functionality is getting better all the time but still needs some work. Oh, and you still need an iOS device to set the HomePod up, so if the HomePod is your only Apple device, you’re out of luck,

I have three HomePod minis in my house and love them. I wish I had more. Great sound for a little speaker but even better is the features that come with it. I love how well it integrates into the Apple ecosystem.
