Customer Ratings & Reviews

I really like the small size. I bought it mainly to serve as a hub for Homekit. It’s super sensitive so don’t try to get Siri on your phone if nearby- the pod will pick up. The speaker sounds good for a small space. Overall, happy with the purchase. If I wanted a speaker for a large space I’d pick the Homepod.

I brought this for my dad. Who is currently battling dementia. When he is having a tough day it calms him down. He pats his feet, and often times sings along. All mom has to do is touch it and he is good to go. He is 94 and dad is 95. They have been married for 72 years

Great features and surprisingly good sound especially for something so small. We set this up in my son's bedroom and he loves it. It's compatible with his Iphone which he really likes. It was super easy to set-up and get going.

Amazing sound quality easy to use easy to set up!!

I’ve had a google assistant speaker, an Alexa and by far this one is the best, the sound quality and the way the product was manufactured to get that nice bass punch makes it feel so immersive. The highs and mids aren’t too overpowered or overpowered. And when you are playing music from your phone you can either AirPlay it like any Bluetooth speaker or bring it close to the pod and it starts playing there. I use it everyday!

So far it's been great. I had Google home Mini's (Free or very cheap price paid) and these sound better and are more useful because I have apple devices. Yes, you can't mount them to a wall, but I can live with that inconvenience. They are a great size. I will definitely be getting another one. So my whole house is covered. The full size is still a better option I think for bigger rooms. I use mine in the kitchen, bathroom, office. Full size in the bedroom and AppleTV/Soundbar for the living room.

I'm amazed at how good these sound for the size. I have two full-sized HomePod and now two of these to create a whole home audio experience. They all sync seamlessly with my main room running an AppleTV connected to a Yamaha AV receiver home theater setup. Plus all the smart functionality and Thread router capabilities.

Very simple to setup - walks you through it and only a few steps. All very well designed to pair with the app. Have connected multiple accessories to it, used Siri and had it play music - so far, no issues or concerns whatsoever. Being able to remotely access the temperature and humidity is also a plus

Fantastic sound in a cute package! The sound from this speaker, which is about the size of a coffee mug, is totally unbelievable! I have mine near a wall, and there isn’t that “in your face” sound from bouncing off the wall and it sounds rich and not tinny It took me about 2 minutes to get it set up, synched and that was it! I have another system that took me DAYS to get figured out, numerous calls to tech support, but not with this speaker. I haven’t had any need to set up a second one—yet

Purchased 3 of these and have them in various rooms of my house. Really good sound & love how I like how I can play over all or select what speaker/room to play. Works better with HomeKit than using my phone/iPad when using “Hey Siri”. Intercom feature is also neat but not something I use regularly. Looks great, sounds good & offers enhanced functionality. Highly recommend for the price point & get more than one if possible for better experience. Setup was seamless & quick.

We decided to go with Apple’s HomePod minis as a bargain way to begin smart home accessories using Apple’s HomeKit. We aren’t ready to invest in the full setup yet, but love the versatility of the HomePod mini. From intercom ability throughout our home to controlling and playing music and audio, it is a delightful experience. You find yourself using it more than expected thanks to the Siri functions and it is fun exploring the other abilities of the HomePod mini. A great listening experience!

I was looking for a smart speaker for my office and the HomePod mini fit the bill. Small, easy to setup and sounds great!

This has great sound for such a small smart speaker. Works great with stereo pair (adding another homepod). The only downsides are software based with siri not being as good as her counterparts. But once set up (which is very easy with a iPhone) it’s a great device with amazing voice recognition technology. If I can change something it would only be how many commands that siri can handle, but I would choose this over alexa and google assistant even though it has less devices that you can use with them. Only reason I prefer this is the Apple ecosystem and the added security over other smart home speakers.

HomePod mini surprised me. I have a couple of full sized HomePods and I love the sound they produce. I knew the mini couldn’t deliver the same sound, but it really does deliver a great sound. No distortion, even with the volume maxed out. A stereo pair of minis deliver very nice sound. The mini is perfect for an office or kitchen. And if you are wanting to get started with other smart devices (light bulbs and switches) this is an affordable way to get started with HomeKit and Thread devices.

Sounds great for the size and price. Works seamlessly with the apple ecosystem. I use them to listen to music and for tv speakers. If you’re a fan of apple products and want a smart speaker then why haven’t you bought this product?

Great sound quality! Color is amazing and super easy to use and manage! Anyone that want to buy one I recommend it!

I recently purchased the Apple HomePod mini in blue but ended up returning it. On the positive side, the HomePod mini offers excellent sound performance. The audio quality is impressive for its size, and the device responds swiftly to commands, which I appreciated. However, the primary issue I encountered was with Apple's HomeKit ecosystem. Despite the HomePod mini's capabilities, I found that HomeKit compatibility is quite limited when it comes to integrating with a variety of wireless devices that I already own. This limitation significantly affected my experience, as I couldn't connect the HomePod mini to several of my smart home devices. For those deeply invested in Apple's ecosystem and looking for a speaker that integrates seamlessly with other Apple devices, the HomePod mini is a great choice. The sound quality and responsiveness alone make it a worthy consideration. Yet, it's important to be aware of the limitations regarding smart home integration. Apple has room for improvement in expanding the compatibility and functionality of their HomeKit ecosystem. Until then, the HomePod mini's utility as a smart home device might be limited for users with diverse smart home products.

easy to use and to set up - sound quality is surprisingly good for its size - sounds like it should be much larger.

The Apple HomePod mini is a great choice for Apple users looking for a compact and high-quality smart speaker. While it doesn't directly support Youtube Music, it integrates seamlessly with Apple's ecosystem, including youtube Music.
