    I live in a condo complex, so it’s a bit challenging to find the balance between decent sound and pounding bass that will make the neighbors angry. These seem to achieve that balance. I have 2 of them set up as a stereo pair, they sound great and I haven’t heard any complaints from the adjacent units! I do use these at a pretty reasonable (low) sound level though, so don’t think that you can crank up the volume with the same results, I definitely COULD make the sound heard by my neighbors..

    The audio when speaking could be a lot louder. When playing music, the audio gets loud. It surely cannot replace Google Assistant or Alexa. It tries to prioritize music over anything else. I really hate it when it tells me to try asking on my phone.

    Love it. Sounds great. I have mine in my master bathroom. Listen to music and podcasts. I bought a smart bulb for my night stand lamp so I tell Siri to turn on and off. Very happy with the mini HomePod.

    I got this for my 85-year old mom. She learned to use SIri to order up some Christmas music for the kitchen. This is a really great product and I love the orange color

    Big sound in a small package. Syncs very well with other Apple products, and if you have more than one speaker they sent together to give us surround immersive sound.

    It’s really nice on the nightstand. I like having it right there all the time for asking Seri to do stuff or answer questions. Turn out the lights, Okay. What’s the time, no problem. What’s the forecast, right there, loud and clear.

    I was admittedly a little skeptical when purchasing the HomePod, as the price is a lot to spend. However, I am very happy I made the plunge. The thing that surprises me most is just how much punch this little thing can pack. Is it the same level as a home sound system? No. However, it can fill my dorm room with enough sound to make your teeth rattle at times. I normally keep it at 60% volume but there is still plenty of untapped power left. TL:DR - Great sounding speaker, excellent low end sounds, but a fairly hefty price tag for a single speaker.

    It's loud enough to fill a room with sound. Bass, mids and treble are all distinct and easy to detect. The HomePod mini's 360-sound works as advertised. The HomePod Mini is Apple's most affordable smart speaker. It's worth a look if you're an active Siri user, or if you're already invested in Apple's ecosystem

    After years with an Echo, I feel liberated. Siri does what I ask her to do, the HomePod Mini always keeps my network connection and the sound is amazing! Plus, I use this at the office so I appreciate Apple’s tight security focus!

    Expensive small speaker but works great as a hub

    Expensive for what it does, but also functions as a Home-Kit Base (bluetooth access), sound is pretty darn good for the size but if you're only using it for its speaker function, you might as well look into larger speakers (soundbars for example) for similar price (when on sale).

    The HomePod is great if you love Siri. Unfortunately I bought it when iOS 15.2 was out which made using the HomePod an absolute nightmare. You would expect that a $99 device wouldn’t have software updates that make it unusable. Fortunately Apple fixed the issue in iOS 15.3

    These mini HomePods are actually great. Has the best sound compared to google nest mini and hub. I don’t own Alexa. It may not be as smart as google but at least privacy wise HomePod is better. Slowly switching out google to homepods.
