    If you're invested in the Apple HomeKit and want a way to put Siri everywhere in your house, this is the way to do it. As with the original HomePod, mini's ability to pick up your voice even over its own music is exceptional. As a Siri listening device, this is amazing. As a speaker, if you want big sound in a small size and don't mind giving up some bass to get there, HomePod mini is a winner. It does produce a surprising amount of sound for as tiny as it is, and putting them in stereo pair makes it even more so. If you want the best overall audio quality, though, original HomePod is still the way to go.

    The sound quality is impressive, great bass, seems to fill a very large space. Easy setup. Can play from desktop, 2 laptops, 2 iPhones. Siri integration is good, Homepod picks up voice commands from almost anywhere in the apartment. Use for music playback, control of smart lighting, kitchen timers, alarms. Happy with the purchase at a great price.

    Not room thumping, but very good sound for such a small "orb". Setup was super easy. Hope the Intercom function works ok as that is my main need in our house. Gotta get the kiddos attention in the Bonus Room instead of yelling for all the neighborhood to hear. I can see jammin' to music in the Kitchen while cooking. Pretty darn nice for under $100 !! Happy camper so far....

    The Apple Echo, though Siri still kinda sucks

    Had a original Homepod but ended up selling it. This is a much better smart speaker, but not nearly as good a speaker. Looks good, easy setup, and its cheap enough you can get 2 for Stereo. I am unsure if 4 Mini's would sound better then 1 OG Homepod, but I suspect then would. The main issue is that Siri is still dumb, and due to the way Apple does not default users into sharing data with them she will always be a bit behind Google and Amazon. I think its worth the small inconvenience to not have all my data know by a company, and sold to .... who knows !

    Small but mighty. We paried two minis for the bedroom Apple TV and they’ve been great. Great sound for how small they are. They do not support Dolb Atmos though as a stereo pair but that’s okay they still do a really good job. Not at deep of bass as the regular HomePods but they get the job done. Also both bedroom minis were the out of the box for a 20 dollar discount and still worth it.

    We bought this with BBY reward points, as I was interested to learn the sound quality vs the Google Home Mini's we use at home. Firstly, it looks great. Secondly, the sound quality is amazing for a speaker that small. Thirdly, the sync with our Apple Music subscription is easy. The only problem this ex-pat family has is that unlike our Google Mini product, the HomePod Mini does to natively play the BBC radio stations from the UK - which is a major issue for us as we listen to them/have them on in the background a lot. Summary: Great product, but not yet perfect for ex-pats from the UK!

    I have a big HomePod in our main living space which I love! I bought this little guy for our bedroom to get the same convenience of Siri in there as well. The sound quality is pretty great and it gets pretty loud for how small it is too!

    Apple HomePod worth every dime!!

    I had my doubts due to the size and the history apple has had with previous speaker items (beats, apple wired ear buds). But this was on sale and after watching apple reveal the HomePod. I must say it is everything they say it is. Sounds really good, super crisp with no speaker distortion, Great equalization and when you first turn it on to set up the HomePod it measures the sound to fit in the room that you’re going to be playing it in. Also Siri has had a major update with this HomePod system because I can be several feet away and she understands exactly what I ask her to do, if it’s changing the song, changing the volume, Siri is right on it. The HomePod is also great for the hub base along with my iPad. I loved this product so much I bought another one for my work studio and my fellow employees were instantly sold and both went out and bought one for each of there homes. The Apple HomePod is definitely worth every penny if you just want a great sounding stereo that’s even compact. Or a hub to run your smart home features off of this is the way to go.

    I've had this for almost three months, and it's a great smart speaker. I was amazed at first by the sound quality and bass from such a small speaker. Apple's engineers know what they are doing. I had some hiccups at first with respect to the speaker not detecting my phone in the same wifi network when I would ask personal requests, but I suspect that may have been because of the subpar wifi router I had (or an OS bug). No regrets with this speaker.

    Great sound quality and ease of use with HomeKit devices. Like many other electronics (not just Apple), it's not always about the tech specs. Sound quality can be subjective; some like more bass, some like less. For me, where this shines, is how seamlessly it integrates with other HomeKit devices. I bought this to place in the kitchen where I'm able to listen to music while cooking, set timers and use the intercom to announce when dinner's ready.

    This little speaker is very impressive and a fantastic addition to my home. It does lack some deeper bass notes, but for its size and the majority of my listening (podcasts and YouTube) it works very well. I have several of these throughout my home, with one even in my shower so I’m never without my podcasts! I am disappointed they’ve discontinued the larger HomePod, but the little guys are certainly no slouches, especially at their price.

    Amazing sound from this tiny speaker. Easy setup and integrated into my other devices simply. The only draw back is it doesn't integrate with as many third party apps as Alexa. Thankfully most of my smart home setup is already integrated with Homekit anyway, and things like audible can be played using AirPlay. I also love how it recognize's my kids voices and will play music they want but it won't show up on my recently played, it shows up on theirs.

    HomePod minis are a game changer. Their size may be pint-sized but their sound is EPIC!!! I have four of them throughout my house. And with Apple's easy interface, it's a DREAM come true for playing music or podcasts everywhere. Highly recommend. Not to mention this shade of Teal is EVERYTHING!!!
