    If this was out went I bought my HomePod I would have brought this speaker. The amount of amazing sound that comes out of it is stunning. You can connect it with most any of your Apple devices

    I was interested when it was introduced at the October 2020 Apple Event - the intercom, music handoff, Siri assistant and integration with other Apple devices as well as the claim that it has great sound for a sub-4" device. The timing of its release was good as our Echo Tap was beginning to show signs of retiring - various components were failing intermittently - the WiFi connectivity, voice recognition and the Amazon-generated music playlists were getting stale. So, I ordered the little guy and my wife and I were impressed! It has delivered on all the claims at the event. So much so that my wife now has it next to her WFH setup and I bought another one to have next to my WFH setup.

    I purchased this to pair with another to act as a stereo pair in the bedroom. I also have it connected to an AppleTV 4k as external speakers and they sound great. Setup was extremely simple using Apple's built in wizard and I'm very impressed with the amount of bass and clarity of sound that I get from these small speakers. I will say that the homepod software can be a little buggy sometimes especially when Airplaying from an iPhone as the music will sometimes just stop playing. But overall I am very happy with it

    This little thing is amazing. I love my HomePod and when I added this to the other room it really is fantastic for multi room audio. I am also a HomeKit user for my devices and this is great...

    I was really impressed with these the first time I turned the music on in my house. I got one for the kitchen and one for the bathroom. They’re perfect for these spots because they take up so little space. In a small space like an average sized bathroom in hey really shine because of the room gain you get with the bass. But the sound really blew me away when I went upstairs and was directly above our downstairs bathroom and could actually hear and feel the tiny speaker through the floor. The intercom function is useful and Siri really does seem to be more well tuned on this than even my iPhone. If you’re in the Apple ecosystem these things are a no brainer at the price.

    I decided to preorder this since i use a lot of apple products. I had a Amazon Alexa, but once this came out I upgraded and I love this little speaker. It’s loud, beautiful, and looks very fancy.

    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.

    As an avid fan of Apple products, I was eager to try the HomePod Mini. However, I was disappointed with the volume. While it does have decent bass, it lacks the volume needed to fill my house with sound. I expected more from Apple in this aspect.

    Let me just start by saying that Apple is marketing this more as a premium speaker with high quality audio, rather than a smart speaker. Don’t expect Siri to be as smart as Google Assistant or Amazon Alexa because Siri will never be able to compete with them as long as Apple has such strict privacy policies. That being said, this speaker is for a very niche group of users. This speaker part of Apple’s smart home platform, Apple HomeKit. If you’re all in on the Apple ecosystem and love music, then this is a perfect buy for you. This speaker does not have a auxiliary line in and does not support Bluetooth. It must be used with apple’s wireless steaming protocol, AirPlay 2, which uses WiFi. It’s much better than Bluetooth as WiFi has much better range, and AirPlay 2 allows for multi-room audio, such as Sonos speakers do. Since this speaker is part of Apple HomeKit, you can use Siri for music control, smart device control and personal tasks such as calls, texts, calendars and reminders. As for the speaker side of things, it sounds really good. Very good range of lows, mids and highs. What blows me away the most though is how incredible its microphones are. You can have it at full blast and be in another room and it’ll still be able to hear you just fine without having to shout or yell like at Google’s and Amazon’s speakers. Price is steep, but if you enjoy high quality sound and the ease of use with Apple products and their ecosystem, then this speaker is worth it

    Not as loud as the larger HomePod but not by very much. Purchase two anyway to stereo pair to your Apple TV for your nightstands on either side of your bed. Perfect. Oh, and purchase a BedJet.

    The HomePod Mini is very loud especially for its size. It sounds incredible. The price isn’t too bad. It seems to struggle to stay connected to the WiFi and my Apple TV but when it works it works well.
