Sound quality is good for a small speaker, but make no mistake, this is a small speaker... a small mono speaker. It will fill a space with music, but don't expect it to fill a room, unless the room is a closet or you have two to make it stereo. That's just the physics of sound. While you can manually stream any music or music service you like to HomePod via a Mac or iDevice you can only use Siri voice control to control music playback (performer, genre, etc) if yo have Apple Music or iTunes Match. It cannot be used to control HomeSharing, if you use that on your Apple devices. You can control volume though no matter what the source of your music. HomePod only works with AirPlay. There is no way to connect via Bluetooth or a wire. My big disappointment with HomePod, and why I ultimately gave it 2 stars, is that it's microphones to summons Siri are way too sensitive. HomePod can hear me even on floor down. The result, if I "Hey Siri" a question to my iPhone on the table in front of me, HomePod upstairs will answer. There is currently no setting in iCloud to lower Siri's sensitivity or disable completely and let another iDevice act as a remote. That would solve that problem. Bottomline: if you have bought into Apple Music and no chance of switching to a different service HomePod may be a good option, depending on whether you use Hey Siri on your other devices. For everyone else, while maybe not as good sounding, Sonos One with Airplay 2 support offers more versatility in connections and streaming service options.

So nice, I bought 2 more. Have whole home audio! Siri functions nicely to control all my homekit enabled devices which I have many of.

If you want a speaker with great sound you have to get a HomePod! Sounds even better when you pair two together! A must have!

It’s amazing how a small speaker can produce that amazing sound, but please Apple start work in your AirPlay sometimes it gets lost don’t connect to the hubs to control the lights or even play music ...

Since I have received this iPod I have connected my iPad, my Computer, my iPhone & I can play & listen music from any device. My life has become more comfortable.

Another stellar Apple product, Pretty much exactly as you would expect for quality sound out of an Apple device… Works very well with Siri and Apple Music Services

Please make sure that you are aware that this is an Apple product and only works with Apple and Siri. As for the speaker itself the sound is amazing!

If you love listening to music, this is great, fantastic speaker and is great to use for when I’m studying, if you can afford it, I highly recommend,

Flawless integration with my HomeKit network. Sound is amazing paired with another HomePod. Sorry Apple decided to discontinue.

It’s hard to believe how good the sound is on this device. If you want basic info and great music, this is the device for you. It is not meant to be like it’s competitors.

Easy to use and sound quality is amazing. Also being a $100 off was a huge factor especially since Apple products are hardly ever on sale.

As my summary says— it’s great but you do need a subscription. Setup is simple the sound is excellent. However, it would be “greater” if Apple supported tunein radio and if the speaker/s had a hdmi port to connect to your tv.

Home Pod is excellent and integrates with all of our other devices on our system... quality is excellent as with all Apple devices...

Worth every penny and keeps getting better with updates. If you have apple services you can’t beat it, if not, do not recommend it.

I love playing my music from my iPhone. Love setting alarms and using with the TVs for surround sound. Just a really great product, I need another one!!!!!

This speaker sounds great and I can easily stream from my iPhone and Mac. Our house now has background music. I wish I had a second one for stereo.

As people had said, sound is good. The amazing thing is how much better Siri is now. You can command it very easily from across the room and not raise your voice.

Love the Homepod! It is easy to use, adds a cool viausl touch to a room and sounds great! Love how it plays with the Homepod Mini

Amazing sound compared to other speakers in the category. Great for music, smart home, and syncing with Apple TV to watch movies/sports.

The sound is pretty good for a small speaker. Connects right away to our devices.
