    My girlfriend and I have Apple devices and this HomePod mini is so crisp and sounds amazing! So much better than the first gen google home speaker for $100. It works seamlessly with all our Apple stuff and sound quality is the best perk. The only trouble was finding HER phone with the command, as it will find mine but not hers somehow. Still troubleshooting. But it’s a great device for any iPhone or Apple users.

    Apple Mini is good but needs work

    I really like the mini. I purchased 2. Had to return one because it would not stay connected to our phones. We would reset the unit and it could read messages or tell us what's on our calendar. Then after 24-48 hrs, we would get the message "Make sure your phone is connected to the same wifi network" which it was. I think Apple has some glitches to work out. Love the sound quality and listening to music. The intercom feature was great too.

    Very few times a product surprises me like this one did. Paying 99.99 for a product of this caliber I find it crazy, cause the sound quality is unmatchable not just the sound but the way it works with the apple ecosystem, sending audio from my Mac, or from my iphone or even paring two of them to work with the Apple tv is flawless. The sound that comes out of this tiny device is HUGE, so yes 5 out of 5

    Wife purchased 2 at Christmas, as intercom, purchased another for kitchen. Integrated with Homekit, Hey Siri, play Neil Young, or Hey Siri what is weather today. Also purchased Logitech CircleView Doorbell, recordings do not leave Apple. Can use homepod to talk to delivery person at door. Added Ecobee thermostat. Hey Siri, what is the temperature in the house?

    Apple instructions are vague, and it seemed for a while that I could only listen to iTunes on it. Don't know what I did differently, but now it works more like other smart speakers, I can stream my internet radio stations. The sound is nothing special, but that's par for a small speaker.

    Original purchase was an open box item from my local Best Buy and I returned it when it did not operate correctly. Best Buy promptly replaced it, no questions, with a new one for the discounted price. This one is placed in my bathroom and what I like most about it is that when I am in the shower and music is blasting I don't have to shout to be heard by Siri.

    HomePod mini is a great speaker that everyone should have in their possession. From using Siri to control my lights via this speaker to listening music and creating stereo pair which sounds amazing.

    I wanted the Aurora Borealis

    Overall very happy with the homepod mini, replaces a Google product I had, and compliments my Apple Ecosystem much better for obvious reasons. I'll note that marketing of the homepods suggest they display the Siri 'Aurora' effect when in use, this is not exactly true, the colorful 'aurora effect' deploys when Siri listens, and speaks, but audio playing out of the homepod will only produce a dull, grey light.

    Coming from having the Google hub max and other Google smart devices . I switched back to Apple phones and I love the ease and the connectivity that Apple gives all its devices. Really good sound when playing music and does a lot for a 100$ smart device. Really amazed on what you can do with this mini speaker compared to other competitors . I really recommend this mini a must have for Apple users .

    The main reason i switched i got tired of always recieving additional recommendations from Alexa it was so annoying and frustrating. Siri just answers my questions and seamlessly transfers my content to the speaker when i tap my phone to it.

    The HomePod mini has amazing sound. The only thing I don’t like is the connection to my Mac. It’s kind of spotty.
