    Once you get it setup it’s great. Directions could be better- had to reset it twice but finally got it to work. Sound is great and pairs with my Apple TV as well as my iPhone. I have three of these now and they sync up with each other great.

    Nice sound but configuration is cumbersome.

    Great sound. The reason I give it a 3 star is that to have this speaker play you have to connect via home kit. It takes over when you say Hay Siri. It was like trying to find needle in a haystack trying find the setting to turn off Siri on the HomePod.

    I purchased 2 so far. They are awesome. The sound quality is great for something so small. Set up was easy, as was connecting to the wifi. You can listen to two separate medias at the same time or you can stream the same content thru them at the same time. I was able to figure out how to use airplay2 thru the tv and the minis but that did take a little bit of time and some google searching. Well worth the $200 for the pair.

    I love the sound of this speaker. Definitely better than its rival amazon echo dot. It is a great speaker to have if you have an iPhone or if you are interested in the apple ecosystem including HomeKit. I like that it can be paired with my Apple TV 4K and the sounds doesn't have any lag.

    The Apple Homepod Mini is much easier to use compared to my other Amazon Echo Dot devices. I have predominantly more Apple devices at home and this device seemelessly connects/communicates with them effortlessly. I love how I can use two HonePod Minis to create an immersive satellite speakers when watching a movie.

    Best Wireless Speaker

    I have the Sonos Play:1,3,5 in my house currently and they don’t have the same crisp quality as the HomePod. I was surprised and not really looking at purchasing it until I read some reviews. At home it’s is very loud and has no issues with low mid and high points at any volume. The Siri assistant is just like the phone can answer basic “Siri stuff” so it’s not Alexa but that’s good for me since I have an Alexa and haven’t used it as much as I thought I would. When the AirPlay 2 comes out this year you’ll be able to group together the speakers and have an options for stereo pairs but for right now it’s great. My favorite thing though is being able to finally AirPlay from my phone or computer without opening an app. If I want to show someone a video or song from anywhere on my phone you just select the HomePod as the output and it goes right to the speaker. Sonos I couldn’t play any sound from my devices to the speaker you always have to use what’s in the app. Lastly Siri can hear you over any volume you have it at with a normal speaking voice. 100% volume and the living room is filled with crisp music and deep base (for the device size and price) just saying “Hey Siri” she will volume down and wait for an input with no effort of raising your voice.

    I switched from using an Amazon Echo and Google Home Mini to this. It's more expensive, but the quality difference is noticeable. The sound quality is significantly better than an echo dot or home mini. Siri has been significantly improved so it is very responsive. I had an original Homepod back when they came out and there have been major improvements since then to the functionality. Setup was cake.

    I love how small and compact this is. Siri is going got get a huge update when IOS 18 releases sometime this year. This device is easy to use and set up as well. I can’t wait to see what more this can do

    It delivers rich, immersive audio with deep bass and has a sleek, durable design. While its compatibility is primarily for Apple users and lacks extensive third-party app support, it remains a top-tier choice for those seeking a premium audio experience within the Apple ecosystem.

    Surprisingly good sound but Siri is quirky

    For the size of the Homepod Mini, it has no business generating this kind of sound. Its slso impressive how well Siri can hear and respond to commands and queries, even when its playing loud music. Siri is still quirky, though, and it sometimes fumbles the ball hy misunderstanding or by simply failing to respond.

    I’m sure I do not use this to its full potential yet, but I’m trying to ditch alexia and so far it’s good. It has a good speaker which plays with my Sonos, uses home kit , and works well with Apple Music. If your in the Apple eco world it’s a plus

    This speaker has amazing bass, and I use this everyday. The only thing that needs improvement is the connectivity. It will sometimes randomly disconnect from my iPad or iPhone, and it just annoys me when you are in the middle of enjoying music.

    Great Little Smart Speakers

    This little smart speaker has amazingly great sound for its tiny size. It has a nice clean and compact look. If you are into Apple Music, Siri is much smarter in seeking out songs than Google. The hook up with this speaker through iPhone 12 was virtually automatic and seamless. Love that you can tap your iPhone onto the speaker to transfer a specific song playing on it. I plan to buy another to create a stereo pair.

    Incredible Sound in a Small, Elegant Device

    Incredibly robust sound for such a small device. Pair this with a second (same generation, same model) Airpod Mini, and one can enjoy incredible spatial-like stereo audio. Very enjoyable, crisp sound when tied to your Apple TV.

    I’m actually extremely impressed. I’ve always used the various Echo devices but I had a Best Buy gift card so I decided to try the HomePod mini since I have many other Apple products and I am extremely impressed with it. From the ease of setting up to the sound quality, there’s a lot from this little speaker. I bought it for my master bathroom and I’d say the sound quality tops Echo Gen 2. Will consider buying more now.

    Perfect speaker - big sound/small footprint

    This is my first HomePod purchase, the Mini, and it does not disappoint. Easy to set up with instant connection to all my devices. It takes up the tiniest bit of real estate on my desk, looks great and not conspicuous at all. The sound and ease of use are the best features, as the sound is top notch for a speaker this size. It has a great price point which allows for adding more around the house, all controlled by the Home app.

    We have a full size HomePod, so we got two minis to compliment the music playing quality of the big one. This allows us to use the music through out the house, as well as Sir, and it even has an intercom feature for calling the kids. You can text them with your voice from these, as well, and Siri will tell you jokes, make notes for you, all the good stuff.
