    These are pretty nice setups. I purchased four to replace two first generation HomePods. I like that the Mini’s can be paired into stereo mode, but I’m disappointed that Bluetooth isn’t available as a connection option. ITT seems if ever a device would benefit from Bluetooth streaming, it would be the Mini.

    I really like my Homepod minis and plan to buy more for the house. I think the sound is great. I love being able to create a stereo pair with them and use with an Apple TV. I find it a bit annoying that I can't use them as the default sound output like a pair of Homepods. Get us that and its 5 stars.

    I wanted to try a home speaker. I decided to go with the mini HomePod since I have Apple products. Setup is easy and the sound is better than I expected for its size. If you looking for a more robust sound then this is not it.

    This little guys works great! Lots of sound. We also have the regular HomePod although it does not get as bassy it is very clear. Also it picks up Siri commands easily so the mics works great. Great addition to our HomeKit set up.

    I was blown away by this little speaker, and I used to be part owner of a recording studio in L.A. I own three HomePods (3x the price), and these little guys are almost as good. Don't hesitate if you're thinking of buying a couple!

    The HomePod mini has excellent sound quality and is very responsive with Siri. It integrates seamlessly with HomeKit. When I paired it to my other HomePods it created a whole home sound system second to none.

    Being a Stereo buff in my life, I bought 2 of these when they showed up on Sale. No sense in buying just one, in my opinion. They pair easily and they just work like they should. I don't ask much of my "toys" like many do, so there may be things that don't work for others, but I LOVE the sound and the volume is never too high, but always ultra clear and well defined. If you just want excellent sound without trying to entertain the neighbors, this is a beautiful sounding speaker. As with all things Apple, easy to set up, easy to operate. It Just Works

    Awesome mini speaker. Have an easy time connecting and switching between devices to play audio I learned that you can pair multiple mini homepods and create your own audio space too, which is a cool option I might try out soon!

    I'm trying to replace my Alexa devices with these. It's not as compatible with smart home devices. But I've managed to cobble together a solution so that the HomePod can control our SmartThings lights. I'll try controlling Harmony Hub and Xbox next. The sound quality is pretty good for the price and size.

    We own 6 HomePods and use them as speakers for all of our TVs. They connect seamlessly with our Apple TVs. You can also pair them together to get a more full sound.

    The Apple HomePod’s two strongest features are the ease of setting it up (just hold your iPhone near it and tell it that you do want to set up the HomePod) and the quality of the sound. I have an expensive surround system in the same room and actually prefer how music sounds on the HomePod. This is probably the cleanest sounding speaker that I have ever heard. I have only set up one Home device (a Wemo outlet switch that controls a light), but that almost set itself up, it was so easy. Works great! Siri is also helpful in finding nearby stores, etc., playing news summaries, and providing other information.

    Great sound. Excellent materials quality and solid construction. The device sometimes disconnects or delays in reconnecting to WiFi resulting in failed or delayed execution of commands. In most cases repeating commands or waiting is required, but on rare occasions a restart is required. AirPlay syncing works great. For me this is two Apple TVs and one HomePod. When I hear what sounds like delay, adjusting the volume of one or more devices and keeping the relative volume the same on all devices resolves it. Keeping a balanced volume on all three devices results in no sense of delay.

    The only problem I have with this speaker is Siri. Which may seem like a big deal, but for the most part I try not to use her. Siri can do the basics so its not always noticeable but anything beyond that she is very useless.
