Customer Ratings & Reviews

i had some errors while setting it up but I think that was due to me buying it open box and someone had set it up prior. But other than that, I'm in love and enjoying discovering the new things it can do. I bought 2 and I love when I play music on both at the same time.

Love the yellow color it’s so cute :) I got an open box in excellent condition and it has zero blemishes and works perfect.

Adorable and sounds pretty decent. Fun to setup, needed to run updates. Sound is good.

This is our second HomePod Mini and I continue to be amazed with the sound quality and performance. Both my wife and I have rediscovered enjoying music throughout our house as well as podcasts. Setup is a breeze and the Thread network makes several of our Thread enabled light bulbs react even faster.

Bought during a Black Friday deal, which knocked about 100 quid off the price, making this a very good deal. Sounds better than what you'd expect when you see and handle it. Plenty loud, but not to the point of being potentially too loud. Very clear with good highs, mid and lows for a speaker it's size. Might have a hard time filling the space of a huge open room, but would be fine in most homes. Siri is hit or miss, but mostly good with basic commands (changing volume, skipping/replaying/pausing songs, etc.) and not so great when it comes to asking it to play songs by title or artist using an Apple Music subscription (often plays something very different than what I asked for). For the price I paid, I'm very happy but at normal retail price I think it's a little high for what you get, but such is Apple. If you can get it discounted or don't mind the price, it's a great product perfect for use in a fitness room, home office, bedroom or even a decent size family room or kitchen. I do wish it had a built-in battery so that it'd be easier to move from room-to-room.

First off, live person here, not a paid review. My home is filled with Apple products so naturally I gravitated towards the HomePod despite there being several other options in the market. My primarily goal was the sound of the device and the HomePod delivers. Additionally, I've grown to use the Siri functions and actually find many of them to be quite helpful (setting alarms, playing music, setting timers, random Siri questions, etc.). The HomePod integrates seamlessly with Apple Music and also allows me to play anything via AirPlay. Lastly, the HomePod doubles as my device used to play sound for my AppleTV and that integration is rather seamless as well. Will I didn't pay the full $349 retail price, I do feel the speaker alone is worth the investment and the Siri functionality is an added bonus.

Got one of these for Christmas and loved it so much I bought a second one, possibly considering buying a third. I just recently purchased a smart plug to use with this device as well. The only thing I don’t think, not that it’s a huge deal, is that it’s not wireless. Other than that, I love my mini HomePod.

I use this thing all the time to play my music and my alarms when i have work it works perfectly fine

Love this! Purchased and have used it daily since. Great for playing music around the house. Great sound quality! Love being able to play music and adjust volume with voice commands.

Are these for audio files... no. They sound very nice for the package size and I love how Siri/HomeKit interacts with them. Worth the price and sound better than many of the other options. The simple set up is a amazing.

In general this has been a good purchase to replace an under-the-shelf radio/CD DVD player. If my iPhone is open, often the commands will be executed on the phone rather than on the HomePod. And you need to phrase your commands precisely. It took me 2 days to figure out how to get Siri to play Minnesota Public Radio.

Small, but gets job done. It’s not as loud as the Sonos One 1st Gen. However, connectivity is better and easier than the Sonos. Make sure your phone is updated and you will probably have to update the HomePod as well before you can get up and running. Also, it is smaller, lighter and easy to move around the house. I love to listen to music when showering!

We have about 6 of these scattered around the house and for thanksgiving and Christmas we had whole home audio which was wonderful to hear. Our guests were amazed how full the sound was throughout the entire house. Such a nice little thing to have all through our house.

The HomePod mini is every bit comparable to its bigger brother the HomePod. The sound is deep and clear. I have two HomePods and now two HomePod minis and can have sound throughout the house. The minis can take over a room and fill it with your favorite tunes. I suggest getting a pair to get the best sound.

I have the larger Homepod and had to try out the mini! The mini is awesome and I am wanting to purchase more for all the bedrooms and more for my living room too!! I originally purchased a refurbished homepod mini but it wouldn't sync/connect so I returned it and paid extra for a new one.

[Employee of bestbuy] Super good sounds especially for the size. Super easy to use with other Apple devices.

Very helpful item ,good quality easy to use I love it

Now that this smaller lower priced option became available I have the large older version in my family room and four of these smaller ones spread throughout my house. I can have them play music all at the same time, I can use them as an intercom and I have Siri everywhere I go in the house, very cool.

This speaker is amazing! It may not be the most intuitive smart speaker on the market, but it is the most amazing sounding one! I’m not comparing it to Dolby Atmos or Bose SoundTouch 300, but in its class it plays music the way it’s meant to be enjoyed - loud and immersive. Incredible sound stage and super nice bass. This replaced my Bose SoundLink Revolve Plus. Yes, it’s not perfect and it has limitations, but music reproduction is definitely not one of them! I don’t use Siri much for more than playing my music requests and basic interactions. If I wanted more I’d get a computer, but I wanted an incredible sounding speaker and that’s what I got!

The HomePod is an excellent speaker, producing some amazing quality sound from a very small form but with Siri it can and does much much more. It functions very well on its own once connected to wifi but it is also possible to link it to an iPhone or and iPad or even Apple TV in which case it produces superb sound for those devices. Setup couldn't be easier, just plug it in and put an iPhone or iPad next to it, two minutes later it's done. Apple has some expanded capabilities coming in the next software update which should be here in a few weeks so it will be possible to use two units to have stereo but frankly the single unit sounds so good am not sure it will matter. I like the ease of use, the great sound quality and the size. I expect I will get another one so I can have one in the living room as well as the bedroom.
