sounds amazing i have no complaints, siri can mis hear a little

Purchased two homepod mini's with points that I had. I wasn't sure if I would really like them or get use out of them: I was wrong.. using them as a pair for surround sound brings new depth to movies.

I bought this for my sister. She really loves it. She used it more often than before.

Good product that easy to set up and use in the home

Sound quality is amazing! Apple quality product! I will definitely be purchasing another one for a different room in the house!

I work odd hours sometimes, its nice to run sleep noise, brown, white, pink, rain etc to drown out the ambient. Plays music well, works as a wake alarm as well

I love this for smaller rooms like a bedroom or bathroom but honestly I wish I could buy just one more HomePod and not the mini. However, these minis are pretty good and pack a good sound punch for it’s size.

Best Bluetooth speaker for Apple products if you own a mac, iphone, and ipad. Works with other devices, but it amazing with apple stuff

Perfect for an apartment. Good sound quality and fun to use when having guest over.

Prepare to be blown away at they sound that comes from this little guy. I’m used to the larger HomePod and while the larger HomePod sound way better I’m not disappointed in the sound quality of the mini at all!

A must have accessory to all subscribers of Apple Music. The sound quality is great and now having one in every room I have been able to transform my house into a wireless mesh of complex music groupings over airplay 2

The sound that this little speaker kicks out is very impressive! It’s very comparable if not better than my JBL Charge 5.

Love it! This is my first HomePod, I wanted to see if it would be a good replacement for Amazon Echos. Sound is superior, and I feel it’s more secure. Will be buying more of these for around the house.

I absolutely love this little speaker. This speaker sounds amazing. Has the perfect amount of bass. It easily pairs with other Apple products including the Apple TV, which is my favorite part. Watching movies with the HomePod paired is just like being in the movie theatre. Siri is super responsive and you don’t have to yell over music playing to get its attention like you do with other products. I will be purchasing more to put in other rooms.

I like these minis, they sound bigger than they are and the convenience of the integration into the apple environment is handy.

My HomePod mini is my best friend when it comes to listening to music. I am always using this thing like I don't have other ways to listen to music. It's small, but the sound is really nice. I'm glad I purchased this.

Anyone invested in the Apple ecosystem should consider this compact smart speaker. It requires an iOS or iPadOS device to operate and immediately connects to all your Apple devices.

I bought this for my spouse to use in her salon for music. Previously she was using a Google Home speaker, so she was due for a sonic upgrade. And the HomePod definitely produces better sound than a Google Home, no question. But unfortunately, the speaker just didn't work well for her. Her biggest problem was caused by plugging her Square mag-strip card reader into her iPhone while music was playing. No matter what she tried, plugging the Square reader into her iPhone made music on the HomePod pause (I assume the either the phone or speaker saw the Square reader as headphones or an audio device being plugged in). I tried to fix it, but couldn't ever figure it out. It drove her nuts though, especially since the old Google Home never had this problem. She is the type to just want things to work and be simple, and saying "Hey Google, play my salon mix" is about as easy as it gets. After a month with it, the pausing issue was on her last nerve. She decided to return it and she put that money towards a Dyson hairdryer, and resumed using the Google Home for her music needs. My second, and more general, gripe is the price. I purchased the HomePod in December 2019. At that time, there was a holiday price of $199. I think, sound-wise, that $199 is the right price for this speaker. Don't get me wrong, it sounds great, but it still sounds like a bluetooth speaker, which means a limited soundstage and some lack of clarity (particularly the highs and mids). It's just inherent in the design of a small object stuffed with speakers, you get a small footprint in exchange for a lack of clarity or separation. In my opinion, $299 would be much better spent on a pair of Sonos Ones in a stereo configuration, placed apart from one another. You'll get better stereo separation and a wider sound stage with a pair of Sonos versus the HomePod. You can also keep adding Sonos speakers as you see fit, to service multiple rooms or even create a surround system. Lastly, it is also worth mentioning that the HomePod is already a 2 year old product. Sure, it sounds great for a bluetooth speaker, and it does sound better than my $139 JBL Charge 4, but it doesn't sound TWICE as good. If you pay more than $199 for this is in 2020, you're paying too much. In conclusion, if you must own a HomePod, wait for it to be on sale. $199 is a fair price for a 2 year old bluetooth speaker, but $299 just isn't a fair price anymore when you can get two Sonos One speakers for a dollar more. Also, if you're getting this for a similar use-case as my spouse, don't be surprised if using your iPhone for other activities while streaming music to the HomePod causes problems for you.

Great sound! Excellent volume very impressed! It’s works great with Apple Music. Siri is very knowledgeable! The mic on the home pod picks up everything in the room.

We’ve created our own simple surround sound with these!
