Customer Ratings & Reviews

Sound is great for a little device. Love the ability to pair with my iTunes! Siri isn't quiet as intelligent as Alexa though ;)

Excellent product. Audio is great and can be played loud! Highly recommended

The sound is perfect, great base and immersive I pair it and putnin Different rooms as well

These work exactly as expected and are perfect for people in the Apple ecosystem. Would probably have purchased the black ones if they were available when I bought them.

The Apple HomePod system is much better than Amazon's Echo system. We no longer get random advertisements shouted at us in the middle of the night. The audio performance, even on the HomePod Mini, is very good. I like being able to play music throughout the house and have it sound good.

My second speaker I bought and with two hundred dollars I have a great sound to enjoy my movies and music , I will recommend, it have a great price and great sound

Is this as good as the full size HomePod? Sound? No. Size? Yes. This is what HomePod should have been from the beginning. Small, cheap, and affordable. I miss the big sound but not too much if I’m being honest.

The quality of these speakers outshines most others. The home automation ecosystem has been lacking due to this being the only option up until late 2020. Siri, despite what haters may claim, works just as well as the multitude of Alexas we have around the house. The Homepods definitely take the cake on sound quality, even by comparison to Amazon’s highest end Echo Studio and Sub combo. It is on par with the more expensive Sonos units; but you can get HomePods for $199 if you catch them on sale and, thus, this makes them a better value than compatible Sonos. Sonos has the benefit of a large ecosystem full of a myriad of options. The call quality on these is superb, second to know, it may even be their best feature. People on the other end are completely unaware that I’m not talking on my phone. I’ve also been on the other end of these calls and can attest to this observation. It is simply astounding how well they isolate your voice. This definitely surpasses Alexa, Google, and even similarly priced Sonos units. It also integrates much better with our home automation on a grand scale than our Alexa units; working with more lights and smart home devices overall. We just simply have more Alexas due to cost. We use the pair of HomePods exclusively for music and phone calls due to this fact. However, I’m only rating this as 5 stars with the knowledge that the ecosystem is FINALLY expanding with the Mini; if not for that, this would probably get 4, maybe even 3, stars. Apple simply waited too long to break out of this single-unit shell.

Very good item when you are a fan of ‘all things Apple’. Good sound for such a small item. Great space saver. Bought two so that I could use as stereo pair.

Great sound for a mini speaker! Works well with my other home items, like telling Siri to turn on/off the lights or the A/C

The sound from the speaker is great. Wasn't expecting the volume to be so loud. Will purchase more

my sister purchased this for my husband and he loves it so much! one day, I came home and he was jamming out to music and he always asks it to tell us jokes. she's pretty funny and has a fun personality (lol) I want one for myself too, in a different room though so we can communicate to each other with it. it's actually a really sweet device.

I do love this speaker. I purchased an open box so I paid a little bit less. The sound is very good comparing to the Echo Premium sound and the google nest mini. I have stereo pairs of all three but decided to sell the Echo when I got the HomePod minis. I have noticed a lag when pairing with Apple TV. I have used the calibration tool more than once. Maybe when apple allows them as default tv speakers? But they are very cool! I love the integration with my phone and watch. I am especially happy with this purchase since apple began supporting lossless quality Apple Music streaming.

I have this set up in a newly renovated room that leans a little into dark colors. So this blue really pops in my space below is my generic review of the HomePod Mini. Honestly shocked at how much I like this little speaker. It sounds great for podcasts (a little less so for music I must admit). And in a HomeKit enabled home, it works pretty well at taking commands. We have three total now and being able to airplay throughout the house is really cool!

Excellent speaker but the connectivity is complicated, it took a long time to figure out how to connect it each time we need to use it and turning it on and off, although you just tap it sometimes it don’t work

I have a pair of these in one room and a pair of Home Pods in our family room. Very good sound for a small speaker. Nice that you can pair two of them for stereo. Also nice that you can use them as a sound source for Apple TV 4K, (not sure if it works the same way with a standard Apple TV). That said, if your looking for excellence with an Apple speaker pair, better to splurge for the Home Pod. The Home Pods are a big step up from the Home Pod mini. But you’ll pay for it. When looking for smart speakers and smart home devices, privacy should be a consideration. Compare Apple privacy with other companies smart device agreements.

Excellent. Easy setup. Great sound. Setup as stereo pair.

Heavenly. What else can I say? We have two set up and fall asleep to beautiful sounds. Works seamlessly with Apple devices.Best purchase. Love love it

The HomePod by far is the best sounding smart speaker you can buy on the market. However, due to the fact many manufacturers don’t support Apple HomeKit, Siri falls behind in terms of overall functionality. But the main highlight of the HomePod is the sound. Though the sound is room filling, it is best when it is stereo paired, which dramatically changes the entire listening experience. Also, if you have 2 HomePods and an Apple TV 4K, you can use HomePods for Dolby Atmos sound which is amazing. Overall, it’s a really good sounding speaker and has tons of bass, yet somehow remains balanced, presumably due to the fact there is a dedicated sub component within the HomePod which is about 4”. The audio is very clear, and the HomePod gets very loud. In my experience, I would recommend putting the HomePod about 5-7 inches away from a wall, this will give the HomePod better functionality in terms of its sound beaming capabilities. it makes a huge difference, it’s just the basic physics of sound. One thing that is important to note is that this device is for people who are heavily invested into the Apple EcoSystem, and are subscribers of Apple Music, because yes they do have 3rd party music support from platforms such as Spotify and Pandora, however the functionality is not ideal due to it still being implemented and developed. Also this is not a Bluetooth speaker and is only AirPlay compatible, meaning you need an Apple device to stream to it, if you aren’t using Siri on the HomePod to ask it play music.

Overall, I really like the HomePod mini. The sound quality is great, and the Siri functions work seamlessly. The only reason I'm giving the product 4 stars is due to the inconsistent handoff from my iPhone to the HomePod.
