Customer Ratings & Reviews

Is this as good as the full size HomePod? Sound? No. Size? Yes. This is what HomePod should have been from the beginning. Small, cheap, and affordable. I miss the big sound but not too much if I’m being honest.

Really impressed with the output of this speaker. Loud for its small package. Connectivity to siri is a plus.

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

Really nice small speaker. Works great with Apple TV. Sound is great especially when streaming video and music. I will be buying more for my other Apple TV set up.

Excellent speaker but the connectivity is complicated, it took a long time to figure out how to connect it each time we need to use it and turning it on and off, although you just tap it sometimes it don’t work

Very good item when you are a fan of ‘all things Apple’. Good sound for such a small item. Great space saver. Bought two so that I could use as stereo pair.

Good sound, good price, easy to set up. Replaces a defective HomePod that died 25 months after purchase, with a 2 year warranty. Hope I have better luck with this min!!

Apple class shows! Great sound in such a small form factor!

They have great sound and were really easy to set up. I see them purely for speakers meaning I haven’t set up any of other features available such as home automation.

Perfect size and shape for small spaced areas. Sound is loud enough but not too much where it takes away from the quality of the sound.

great sound love the auto volume and great look and controls

Great sound system for such a small device. Makes the TV experience much better. Can now hear what everyone is saying!!

Heavenly. What else can I say? We have two set up and fall asleep to beautiful sounds. Works seamlessly with Apple devices.Best purchase. Love love it

My second speaker I bought and with two hundred dollars I have a great sound to enjoy my movies and music , I will recommend, it have a great price and great sound

I do love this speaker. I purchased an open box so I paid a little bit less. The sound is very good comparing to the Echo Premium sound and the google nest mini. I have stereo pairs of all three but decided to sell the Echo when I got the HomePod minis. I have noticed a lag when pairing with Apple TV. I have used the calibration tool more than once. Maybe when apple allows them as default tv speakers? But they are very cool! I love the integration with my phone and watch. I am especially happy with this purchase since apple began supporting lossless quality Apple Music streaming.

Works for the purpose I purchased the Mini, love the sound quality and ease of use.

These work exactly as expected and are perfect for people in the Apple ecosystem. Would probably have purchased the black ones if they were available when I bought them.

The quality of these speakers outshines most others. The home automation ecosystem has been lacking due to this being the only option up until late 2020. Siri, despite what haters may claim, works just as well as the multitude of Alexas we have around the house. The Homepods definitely take the cake on sound quality, even by comparison to Amazon’s highest end Echo Studio and Sub combo. It is on par with the more expensive Sonos units; but you can get HomePods for $199 if you catch them on sale and, thus, this makes them a better value than compatible Sonos. Sonos has the benefit of a large ecosystem full of a myriad of options. The call quality on these is superb, second to know, it may even be their best feature. People on the other end are completely unaware that I’m not talking on my phone. I’ve also been on the other end of these calls and can attest to this observation. It is simply astounding how well they isolate your voice. This definitely surpasses Alexa, Google, and even similarly priced Sonos units. It also integrates much better with our home automation on a grand scale than our Alexa units; working with more lights and smart home devices overall. We just simply have more Alexas due to cost. We use the pair of HomePods exclusively for music and phone calls due to this fact. However, I’m only rating this as 5 stars with the knowledge that the ecosystem is FINALLY expanding with the Mini; if not for that, this would probably get 4, maybe even 3, stars. Apple simply waited too long to break out of this single-unit shell.

Overall, I really like the HomePod mini. The sound quality is great, and the Siri functions work seamlessly. The only reason I'm giving the product 4 stars is due to the inconsistent handoff from my iPhone to the HomePod.

I have been something of an audiophile since college (50 years ago). I bought 2 of these as a quick and dirty extension to my Apple ecosystem. I absolutely had low expectations considering their size. When I set them up I was pleased with the typical convenience (if you have an iPhone) but when I started playing music I was amazed. The audio was clean with no distortion at all reasonable volumes. Frequency range is limited by size of the speaker but the sound benefited by the units not trying to play outside their range. I dropped a star off of them because they sound better filling up a room than as a nearby computer sound source.
