    Works well, and the sound is good. It wasn't as big as I expected, which is a good thing since I was able to place it at the corner of my desk. Only issue is it sometimes disconnects after a song ends, but this issue has only happened while using Apple Music.

    Very easy to set up and pair with another HomePod Mini. Sound is quite good for such a little guy. I love just being able to ask Siri a question without using the phone. All in all a great purchase. Only problem is that I think this item is a little pricey, but it is after all, an Apple product! If you are looking for a cheaper solution, you can get the Amazon Echo Dots for about 40% of the cost. I frequently use both Siri and Alexa and find that perhaps Siri is a little smarter, but Alexa is very trainable. I like both and either of them make a good addition to my home system!

    This speaker is the size of an orange but it sounds AMAZING. The bass is great, and the vocal is clear without distortion even at high volume. When there's a deal on this I'm getting another to set up a stereo pairing.

    Great price for what you're getting. I couldn't justify getting the larger HomePod and this is perfect. Small enough to not stand out but can still get pretty loud if you plan to use it as a speaker/intercom in your house. I've used Amazon Alexa previously and this is much nicer.

    we have an open floor plan where the kitchen, dining room, and living room are all open to each other. We the HomePod mini in our dining room. We primarily use it to listen to music while cooking dinner and eating at the dinning room table. The sound quality really surprised me especially if you're within 20' of it. Further than that, and you won't notice the bass response as well. I believe this to be because it uses passive drivers. We found that Siri has responded to us 100% of the time, even across the room 40' away, and we don't have to yell... Cool things are the multi-person detection, Siri plays from my wife's Music library when she engages Siri and will switch to my library when I request music. Also the hand-off feature is pretty slick. A little slower (iPhone 12 mini) than what i was expecting but still good enough to use. I also use it to get weather reports, quick lookup questions, hear what's on my calendar for the day, and

    The Apple HomePod delivers impressive sound quality in a sleek, modern design. Despite its compact size, it produces rich bass, clear vocals, and well-balanced audio that easily fills a room. Whether you’re listening to music, podcasts, or watching TV, the sound feels immersive and high-end.

    definitely one of my impulsive buying that i didn’t regret. so easy to use, so easy to connect. and even though the size is small, the quality of the sound is terrific and was shocked how loud the music is.

    Great sound for the size. Setup was simple. Siri and HomeKit integration works well. The small size gives it the ability to be placed just about anywhere. A little pricey for the size but to be expected with Apple.

    I bought two of these speaker. If you have two speakers they have a stereo sound. I do enjoy the sound. I play nature sounds at night to fall asleep. The size is perfect to set on a small table. I think the price point is good too for this Apple product.

    I picked up two of these to pair and use as my desktop speakers alongside my iMac. They didn't let me down! The sound is pretty good even though it doesn't have the ability to sense where it's placed in the room similar to the original HomePod. I appreciate that they are lighter on the bass, but I still would love to have the ability to adjust the EQ similar to other speakers on the market. Sometimes the initial connection to my iMac will only pickup one of the two HomePod Minis so I will connect back to my internal speakers and then it will pickup both on the second attempt. I would love to see the option to make the HomePod Minis the default source of audio for my iMac so that I wouldn't have to worry about connecting each time I sit at my desk. I would also love if these were wireless or supported Bluetooth 5.0 but I suppose I'll have to wait and hope for that down the road from Apple.

    Setting up the Apple HomePod mini is a breeze when using my Apple phone. It took seconds to get it connected to the WiFi and account and my favorite feature is being able to tap the top to transfer what is playing from my phone to the HomePod. The quality of sound and loudness is also par none.

    Good sound quality for the size. If you want loud go with the regular HomePod. Siri works well and it will connect to and access your iCloud/iTunes/Apple Music without connecting through a phone or computer. Intercom ability with multiple speakers is also a nice function.

    As far as sound quality is concerned, this thing blows away the competition from Amazon. It produces a far better frequency range and nice spatial dynamics. Also, having my entire music library already in the Apple ecosystem, it was a no brainer that I needed one of these. That said, it’s kind of boring. I guess because it just does what it’s supposed to without making a fuss. Setup is ridiculously simple. I tell it to play something and it plays it. I suppose my one criticism is that the overall volume level isn’t high enough to overpower my treadmill motor. But I can’t expect a miracle from a softball sized speaker I suppose. Otherwise, it’s great. Priced right for an Apple product. And I’d buy it again.

    We have had sound bars and tried multiple different bluetooth speakers with our tv. The sound bars didn't give off the rich stereo sound, and the bluetooth speakers all had lag problems. We bought two of the HomePods and paired them with our Apple TV 4K that is hooked up to our TV, and we finally have amazing stereo sound... and it's from tiny little speakers that don't take up a ton of your shelf space. Very happy with these.

    Pretty good sound for the size and stereo pairing is super simple. Also, there's a nifty little feature where you can be listening to something on your phone, then just tap your phone to the HomePod, and it starts playing from the HomePod. As always, Siri isn't nearly as good as others for answering random questions, BUT is wayyyy more reliable for simple requests. I can count on Siri to understand me 99% of the time when I tell her to "turn the lights on" or "what's the weather." Google/Alexa definitely have more to say, but are never as reliable. --at least not in these little devices. My advice: keep this one for music and home automation commands, and keep a Google/Amazon device nearby for random questions.

    Better for stereo music than the original HomePod

    We started off with one HomePod for listening to music while I work, and although they seem very bass-heavy to me the overall effect was pleasing, so we bought another one to try as a stereo pair. Unfortunately, there seemed to be a lot of smearing between the two, so we moved them to the living room to replace our TV speakers where they work much better. However, that left the office with no speakers, hence the HomePod mini purchase. Not nearly as much bass, which is fine, and the more coherent sound allows them to work better as a stereo pair. I think I like a pair of the HomePod minis better for music than a single HomePod, although for "home theater" the original HomePod is preferable.
