    I heard it in-store at apple and when I got it home it didn't bump as I wanted it to. it's good for small enclosed areas. makes a nice bathroom speaker but not for wide-open spaces in large homes over 2000 square feet. I sent it back!

    I’m an Apple fan and these are great sounding speakers very responsive to request, but that being said they need voice recognition and able to support more than one user. I’ve had a few times when audible said hey seriously Siri took it as a command.

    Works well, except what it receives is more limited than I expected. It won’t stream my local station, and does not pick up Airplay from my phone; literature says HomePod does, but I guess not Mini.

    Apples worst product

    Terrible. Just terrible. It connects through WiFi and not Bluetooth. It’s constantly losing its signal so the sound is interrupted. I tried to use it while sleeping and the sound kept stopping which woke me up. Not sure why Apple even offers this product.

    My choice was between this and Sonos One. When I tried to install it, Apple required that I enable Two Factor Authentication on my entire Apple account. I hate doing things twice. I'm smart enough to create and remember a secure password. Sorry Apple.

    People complain about Siri not being very useful on this Speaker. I’ve had Google & Amazon products and I’d stick with Apple over both of them. The integration with HomeKit is fantastic.

    It’s alright. Only works when it wants to and sometimes I can’t get my iPhone to connect to it and I’m using a iPhone 13 Pro Max. Sound quality is great.

    Nice speaker with great sound. It only supports Apple music, which is ridiculous considering you are paying $350. Competitors support Spotify, Pandora, Google music & even Apple music. I would've given this 5 stars if it supported more than Apple music.

    This thing puts off some amazing sound but very flawed. It's my first smart speaker and sometimes it's nice to tell siri to change music track. Rarely plays nice with my itunes from my phone. Constantly having internet issues.

    The sound range is among the best BUT there are limitations. You must be committed to Apple products and this is not Bluetooth. IF BBY is offering 4 months of free Apple Music it did not work for me as new subscriber. Disappointed in BBY

    If you already have Apple products, such as I TV, iPhone, iPad or laptop You will love the Apple HomePod. Connect easily with other Apple products and you can simply skin in other Wi-Fi devices and use Apple’s home system

    I bought this due to great reviews on the sound. I didn't like that anyone in a room can tell the speaker to read off my messages. For the price it isn't worth it. I wanted to like it, but I returned it and got a Sonos Playbar instead. No regrets!

    I waited a while before buying a HomePod until it had multi-user support. At first it was a bit buggy and didn't recognized voices very well. Fortunately, it has gotten a bit better with the last few updates. Overall, it is a great speaker and I would recommend to any user of Apple devices.

    In my opinion the HomePod lacks in voice assistance compared to many other smart devices. Quality wise, very nice material and modern looking and the audio is awesome. I would have given the HomePod a 5star but, since the voice assistance Feature is very outdated they lost a star.

    I bought the open box product of excellent condition. The touch panel of the homepod mini was not working and was continuously going to self resetting mode. Hence it could not be used. The product was geek squad qualified. Both best buy and geek squad needs to make their tests more comprehensive so that people don’t face such issues. A poor experience.

    I give this item 2 stars because it can't be used with non-Apple devices. So if you had a nice TV and wanted to send the sound to an Apple HomePod mini you can't. Just seems like a cheesy implementation considering all the technology available to make it happen.

    Owned one when they were first released. Software update now allows them to be paired and used with my Apple TV. Spatial audio beats 5:1 surround. My other audio is now used just for regular TV.
