Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought this to connect to my MacBook Air when in docked mode connected to a monitor for better sound. I wasn’t expecting a lot from such a small device, but I was shocked when it played for the first time. The sound is full and balanced. It has nice “apple” features that I didn’t realize I needed until I had them for example, when I’m listening to Apple Music from my phone to the HomePod I can pull up a YouTube video and the sound of the video come through the phone speakers as normal while still having the music playing in the background on the HomePod instead of the video sound from YouTube taking over on the HomePod causing me to go back to Apple Music and restart the song. Very unexpected feature that i now enjoy having

It sounds great, it’s a very good addition to my Apple TV.

It was great and the speaker is really loud and good And easy to connect

Once you get it setup it’s great. Directions could be better- had to reset it twice but finally got it to work. Sound is great and pairs with my Apple TV as well as my iPhone. I have three of these now and they sync up with each other great.

The sound is good and being able to connect 2+ Home pod mini’s around the house makes it even better. The intercom feature is a nice feature as well. What I really like is, being able to play your music or podcasts from you phone and still be able to use it to make/receive phone calls or watch videos, without turning the music off that’s playing from your phone, through the home pod speakers.

Beautiful design, good sound quality and bass. Compact n easy to pack.

It delivers rich, immersive audio with deep bass and has a sleek, durable design. While its compatibility is primarily for Apple users and lacks extensive third-party app support, it remains a top-tier choice for those seeking a premium audio experience within the Apple ecosystem.

We have a full size HomePod, so we got two minis to compliment the music playing quality of the big one. This allows us to use the music through out the house, as well as Sir, and it even has an intercom feature for calling the kids. You can text them with your voice from these, as well, and Siri will tell you jokes, make notes for you, all the good stuff.

I purchased the Home Pod mini to use my Mac Mini computer speaker in my small (12x12) office so I don’t have to turn up the stereo (in another room) so I can hear it in my office. Pros: The mini provides much better sound than the Mac Mini speakers and works great for my purposes. It sounds great for its size (and price if on sale). I even think it would beat out some more expensive speakers in this and other categories. It would even work great as a TV speaker (depending on size of room). The larger HPod would be good for this purpose too. It’s great for background music/talk and even to turn it up to jam out to a favorite song in the office, but not likely for parties— it would get drowned out (again, depending on the size of room, purpose and number of people talking). Those considerations are important to me. It also makes for a great speaker phone if routed through continuity. Cons: I don’t like how I can not use it as a microphone to the Mac Mini for recording. This also causes issues for applications like Zoom, Skype, and even Facetime for video. I’ve read why but I don’t quite understand the reasons since you can connect the HPod mini directly to the Mac Mini’s Usbc-3 port. It needs to connect through bluetooth (which it has) to use it this way; otherwise, it has to go through iOS AirPlay or something like that…but not directly through MacOS. I’ve also read it will not support Apple’s new HD music streaming, Dolby Atmos, and Spacial sound, but I also read it will get an update so it can(?) Conclusion: I tried the big HomePod a while ago (to replace the main stereo) and it sounded great. It was not as full sounding or as loud as my current mini shelf system (as it should since it’s a system and not just one speaker), so I returned it. The Mini does not sound as “full” as the larger one but it is just as clear and crisp sounding. An update to utilize Apple’s new services would make this an excellent buy. It’s not a party speaker but that’s not why I bought it (I have that if needed). It works great as the intended computer/office speaker that sounds great for it’s size and category, and at a decent price.

Homepod mini is great, but the sound quality is more meant for nightstand or deskspace, not a large open space like the spot we had planned, we had high hopes for it and returned it due to it just being to small for our space. Really a great system though, we did replace it for the regular HomePod.

These are fabulous. I have them all over the house. They connect all the rest of my devices for the Apple Home and are great little speakers with a lot of punch.

The color is cool, easy to use sound is good ……..

Great features and surprisingly good sound especially for something so small. We set this up in my son's bedroom and he loves it. It's compatible with his Iphone which he really likes. It was super easy to set-up and get going.

Sound is great and size is perfect. Color and build are great. Can’t wait for future updates

For the size of the Homepod Mini, it has no business generating this kind of sound. Its slso impressive how well Siri can hear and respond to commands and queries, even when its playing loud music. Siri is still quirky, though, and it sometimes fumbles the ball hy misunderstanding or by simply failing to respond.

This speaker has amazing bass, and I use this everyday. The only thing that needs improvement is the connectivity. It will sometimes randomly disconnect from my iPad or iPhone, and it just annoys me when you are in the middle of enjoying music.

The device exceeded my expectations. It is very small but the sound is fantastic. It is not a hifi speaker like my old wood klipsich but it is better than my fancy 5.1 surround for the TV. I'm old and the mini is easier to understand dialog while making perfectly decent music. The mini is pretty enough but mostly inconspicuous. I like the long cord but miss a battery. Siri is Siri fun and useful but an idiot savant.

While the sound is not quite as good as a full size HomePod, it it surprisingly good and probably the best you'll find in a $99 smart speaker. In addition, it is a great addition to an Apple-enabled smart home for automation and multi-room music through AirPlay2 support. Incredibly easy to setup. If you are an Apple user, this is a great investment. I plan on getting 3-4 more to place throughout the house.

I have had Apple HomePods for a few years. Amazing sound and deep rich base. Never would have imagined the mini would be JUST AS GOOD!!! Such amazing sound from such a small speaker is impressive and it also comes in multiple colors to suit your space or color preferences. 10/10

Small but mighty. We paried two minis for the bedroom Apple TV and they’ve been great. Great sound for how small they are. They do not support Dolb Atmos though as a stereo pair but that’s okay they still do a really good job. Not at deep of bass as the regular HomePods but they get the job done. Also both bedroom minis were the out of the box for a 20 dollar discount and still worth it.
