Customer Ratings & Reviews

It is a dumb smart speaker . I bought it at launch and it's still half baked.

Haven’t fully used it much. The setup is lengthy. It’s a cool product.

Love to use and enjoy life with it for longer time to come...

Sounds great looks good but she needs some help come on apple already!!

I have the Bose Resolve+ and initially thought that HomePod wouldn't be as good. While the Bose is great, HomePod is next level. The HomePod doesn't distort at high volume, is incredibly clear, Siri can hear you over the music from across the room, and the BASS is amazing! I love bass and know that sometimes bass compromises quality, however this is not the case for HomePod. For those who want the best audio quality first and smart features second, this is the speaker for you!

Too pricy for the work done by a smart speaker, not a good investment

I was on the search for a speaker in this price range. I figured i would try Apple Homepod since I have other Apple products but i was greatly dissapointed. You have to use the home app for everything which is annoying. No bluetooth. Really? The speaker is always listening.

At this point none of the smart accessories I already have are compatible

It wasn’t everything I expected, thought it would be better.

Like the Siri connection not a bad speaker for music

The HomePodOS is extremely buggy. The HomePod barely works as it’s supposed to. Audio quality is amazing but it’s not worth your frustration. I’ve had way too many issues with the HomePod, as well as others.

The Apple HomePod mini is a compact and impressive smart speaker. Its sleek design fits seamlessly into any room, and the sound quality is surprisingly rich and clear for its size. The integration with Apple's ecosystem allows for seamless control through Siri, making it convenient for managing smart home devices and answering questions. However, the limited third-party app support and higher price compared to some competitors might be drawbacks for some users. Overall, if you're deeply invested in the Apple ecosystem and prioritize sound quality over third-party app support, the HomePod mini is a great addition to your home.

As compared to Amazon dot, this product is average.

While this is a nice little speaker for your desk at home or for a dorm, it does not get very loud at all. As an Apple Fan Boy for basically my whole life, they missed the mark. It is difficult to get set up in other places if you decide to take it somewhere else.

I AM NOT THAT CRAZY ABOUT THIS PRODUCT YOU LISTEN FIRST

Sadly not released with multiple user support.....

I have never been reserved about investing in new Apple products, up until now. This product had me perplexed, but my curiosity got the best of me. I pre-ordered, cancelled, then pre-ordered again and received the product on Feb 9, despite shipping info that it would be Feb 12. I am a "modified" audiophile. Having grown up in the 70's, I experienced and purchased all things audio. Albums, tapes, CD's, and hardware. Was dissapointed with the degradation in audio quality. Digital files killed me, but it is what it is, or was? I gave up my "heavy" audio equipment a few years ago and went to a home of small pods that were supposed to sound "amazing." and be accessible in a digital fashion. None of them excited me, but they did the trick. I went through B&O, B&W Zeppelins, etc... It all sounded great, but not soul filling. Opened the Homepod from Apple and set it up. It was totally easy to set up, but confusing to understand where in my "space" to put it. I chose a corner. After the setup, it took a day to appreciate the sound quality. It was different, not good or bad, just something my ears have not heard or been used to. Played with different genres of music to get a better feel for it. Miles Davis, Journey, Coldplay, Brad Paisley, Led Zeppelin, and of all things, the Churches (who have amazing electronic music). It almost felt like the Homepod needed a day to "breathe" and get its lungs. The Homepod woke up, and started to provide amazing sound that I cant describe, just amazing depth. This is a "small" speaker, but the sound that comes out of it is not only unreal (for its size) but beats anything I have owned before. I am embarrassed to say that I want to gift my B&W zeppelin and B&O small BT speakers to family, because they served me well for a while. No matter where I am in my home, I never have to yell at the homepod. Its a simple "Hey Siri, do this" and it gets done. I have not had any mistakes out of the voice recognition, which simply amazes me. I have been yelling at Amazon Echo's from 20 feet away to get a simple task done. I would suggest buying this, easily. I am still amazed at what Apple did with the sound quality and its ability to "listen carefully" to commands. So far, so good. I am a firm believer Apple is poising this device to take over home automation. This is a test period for them to understand what HP capabilities are.

This product was not an easy set up like my Alexa.

Sound is fine for news and Siri is convenient. I’m experiencing a problem where the HomePod makes a popping or cracking sounds when listening to music or news. Then it shuts off and won’t power back on for 20-30 minutes.
