    Great Little Smart Speakers

    This little smart speaker has amazingly great sound for its tiny size. It has a nice clean and compact look. If you are into Apple Music, Siri is much smarter in seeking out songs than Google. The hook up with this speaker through iPhone 12 was virtually automatic and seamless. Love that you can tap your iPhone onto the speaker to transfer a specific song playing on it. I plan to buy another to create a stereo pair.

    I’m actually extremely impressed. I’ve always used the various Echo devices but I had a Best Buy gift card so I decided to try the HomePod mini since I have many other Apple products and I am extremely impressed with it. From the ease of setting up to the sound quality, there’s a lot from this little speaker. I bought it for my master bathroom and I’d say the sound quality tops Echo Gen 2. Will consider buying more now.

    Perfect speaker - big sound/small footprint

    This is my first HomePod purchase, the Mini, and it does not disappoint. Easy to set up with instant connection to all my devices. It takes up the tiniest bit of real estate on my desk, looks great and not conspicuous at all. The sound and ease of use are the best features, as the sound is top notch for a speaker this size. It has a great price point which allows for adding more around the house, all controlled by the Home app.

    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.

    The Apple Homepod Mini is much easier to use compared to my other Amazon Echo Dot devices. I have predominantly more Apple devices at home and this device seemelessly connects/communicates with them effortlessly. I love how I can use two HonePod Minis to create an immersive satellite speakers when watching a movie.

    I love the sound of this speaker. Definitely better than its rival amazon echo dot. It is a great speaker to have if you have an iPhone or if you are interested in the apple ecosystem including HomeKit. I like that it can be paired with my Apple TV 4K and the sounds doesn't have any lag.

    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.

    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.

    Home Pod Should have Bought Sooner

    As we work on creating a smart home, I thought the home Pod would play an important role and to way the least, I was correct. Plus, it's a very good speaker that I am using with Apple Music and Sirius XM satelite radio. It worked so well, I bought a second Home Pod a week later for my home office. The learning curve isn't to steep and the intercom feature has been both valuable and fun.

    Situation I found myself in last year: Alexa had just gotten dumb. I mean DUMB. Moreover, no amount of opt out settings could stop the unsolicited suggestions that I really did not want to hear about. Alexa integration with Apple Music was also poor. So for the simple purpose of controlling g music, smart home devices and setting kitchen timers, it just made sense to get HomePods. Siri is still very far from being a great digital assistant but for simple voice control, she gets the job done painlessly if you’re home tech is Apple centric.

    We’re happy Apple finally introduced a price competitive product to compete with Alexa and Google, The sound is amazing for the size and Siri responds much quicker than Alexa. If you are creating a Smart Home the you need the HomePod Mini to work with HomeKit. We’ve added this to our system to manage the lighting and so far it has performed better than Alexa ever did and with privacy protection. Thanks Apple

    Surprisingly good sound but Siri is quirky

    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.

    My teenage daughter set up the HomePod mini without assistance from me. The mini has strong, clear sound that fills my daughter's room quite well -- better than I expected. She enjoys the lighting on the top an how she can interact with the mini. Yes, it costs more than an inexpensive bluetooth speaker, but it provides better sound and functionality than those speakers, too. We're happy with the purchase.

    This is such a fun and great addition to your home. Quality is enough to think “Okay, okay Apple, I see you.” My recommendation is to put it in/near a corner, so you have sound echoing up and off the walls, and you’ll be a happy camper. The button is a little sensitive and will start playing its own radio if you’re not careful, but it does a great job of connection to your devices and being easy to “see”. I connect mine to my Apple TV and have several going through my home, and it’s awesome for chill music sessions during the day, and movie night is a blast.

    Amazing Sound for Apple Users

    First of all, I want to rave about the amazing audio quality of this tiny speaker. Nothing small about the sound. It outputs a serious, rich bass and fantastic highs, blowing everything out of the water in its competing market in terms of audio quality. I do have a Bose wireless speaker that is also great and while this is wired, it’s incredible. However, the reason for only four stars is its connectivity. I wanted a speaker that anyone in the house could use from their smartphones, but each registered user must have an iTunes account, or use mine. This isn’t a serious issue only because I have an apple desktop and music can be used through my iTunes account. If you already own apple products, you’ll want to spend the little bit extra and purchase this HomePod speaker. It shouldn’t even be a consideration if you use something else. The HomePod functionality is user friendly and works extremely well for dedicated Apple users. I love how music will automatically transfer from my AirPod pros to this HomePod and vice-versa. However, I wish apple would have created a speaker of this caliber that is easily compatible with all devices, not just apple products. It’s slightly annoying.
