Such a joy to use and the sound and volume are so clear and strong ... great for my bedroom and in living room too

Works beautifully. Have struggled getting my smart outlets to work correctly. iPhone user and now it works flawlessly.

Really good smart home device if your already immersed in the Apple ecosystem as it requires a iPhone to use and by default uses Apple Music

Now I can boss Siri around instead of my step children.

Was easy to set up. I like that I don’t have to have my phone on my person. Can have siri read text messages or emails.

Great sound, small design, couldn't ask for more. Apple does it again.

We have the original homepod. Whilst it doesnt sound as full as the original version, it is perfect for a multiroom intercom system and to play music in the whole home.

Nice to have music and volume full control from my iPhone.

Great for Apple HomeKit to control all your smart devices.

It’s cool they have the colors, but it wasn’t as loud as I expected. Great gifts for teenagers (13-17). Imma stop being cheap and get the $300 one. Way louder!

I paired two of these and replaced my Sonos in the family room. I enjoyed it very much that I got another one for my upstairs foyer. And now, All my bedrooms have their own HomePod minis. They are really smart speakers: I can have them play and turn off automatically at certain times. My wife and I can play our music separately or we can play the same music in all 8 (3 HomePods & 5 minis). We love these!

Works great in a homekit environment. Doesn't sound as great as the full size homepod but gets the job done. The handoff feature with an iPhone is awesome.

Nice Bluetooth speaker that works great with my iPhone. I tried to set it up as an external iMac 24 speaker but haven’t figured it out yet lol

Love the sound quality,very easy to use and connects right away

Took a little to bit to set up, but overall I used the HomePod Mini eveyday for riminders, timers ect.

Pros: - Sound quality is great; far superior to my existing Echo. - Product feels high quality, all the way down to the fabric textured power cable. I’d have been upset if this came with the generic Apple plastic white cable that inevitably gets dingy/yellow and begins to fray. - You can use other music services outside of Apple Music (via AirPlay), just not natively. I’d prefer natively, but listing this as a pro because I have seen some misleading posts saying services like Spotify cannot be used at all. That is incorrect. Cons (most regard it severely lacking as a smart speaker): - Cannot set multiple timers. Especially when cooking, I’ll often have multiple timers going on my Echo. - Inability to recognize different people. This one is especially annoying if you want to be able to receive/send calls or texts through the HomePod. The speaker is linked to my phone. Even if I’m not around, anyone with access to the speaker can send or receive messages from me (if the option is enabled), despite the fact they are not me. My options are to either disable the feature entirely, or be aware that anyone (friend or family) who is near the HomePod, would have unfettered access to my messages/calls. - Siri in general is lacking. For instance, if I ask Siri if it is going to rain, all I get is a “yes” or a “no”. If I ask Alexa the same thing, I get a percentage chance of rain and expected amounts. Several other instances, but just one example. - No ability to use other music services (i.e. Spotify, Tidal, etc.) natively with the device. As listed above, it is doable through AirPlay, but this comes at the cost of more in depth voice commands. - Was foolishly hoping the Nest would become HomeKit compatible since Apple made HomeKit authorization digital now (no longer requires physical hardware). That is not the case. Another thing to keep in mind, Apple’s control over smart home items is limited to HomeKit devices. More may come soon with recent changes to HomeKit, but if you have anything from Google (like the Nest) don’t get your hopes up and factor into your purchase decision.

I love how quickly and effortlessly it integrates with my other Apple products!!

Very happy camper, purchased 2 HomePods and am loving the sound. I am an Apple Music subscriber, but have not had any issues streaming iHeart Radio or YouTube to these speakers, so don't buy into the "Apple doesn't play nice with others" narrative. While admittedly not a huge audiophile geek, I can greatly appreciate the sound quality of these speakers...more importantly the wife can appreciate the difference as well. I need all the cred I can get when I buy new toys, lol. Do not hesitate purchasing these. I felt extremely to get these on sale for Black Friday, but hearing them now I'd have paid full price!

Purchased as one of many Christmas gifts for our granddaughter. Perfect choice for surprise stocking stuffer. She was over the moon and, so far, loves it very much!!!

Must have speaker for the Apple audiophiles. Can’t beat the sound clarity and easy setup. Great price.
