    If you’re looking for a way to hear the most pure and awesome sounding Siri you’ve come to the right place. While the software may be lacking on this device, if you’re as deep into the Apple ecosystem as I am controlling your music couldn’t be easier. This truly is one of the best sounding speakers on the market. Far better than any Sonos of the same caliber. Just, as I said before, the software do be lackin doe

    Tried to replace an original homepod with this mini. There just is no sound comparison. Decided to buy another HomePod and I placed this one in the bedroom, where it is a nice affordable addition to the house.

    This is my second HomePod, which I purchased to create a stereo pair with one that I bought last February. The sound reproduction is excellent, no matter what type of music I am playing. Excellent definition and clarity. Plus it works well with smart switches, etc., and Siri is a helpful assistant. Adding stereo creates broad, full sound stage.

    I bought two of these and they generally work fine. The sound is excellent for the size. I have many problems connecting to my WiFi router. Sometimes they get lagging.

    Good for not for us - We are in the Apple echo system- But went with the new google speaker. In the end its all about the assistant for us- Google is just so much better. The biggest think we liked was the pairing.

    The device will sync and works great when using AirPlay however audio is limited to 1 AirPlay session at a time (cannot listen to music and listen to an audiobook at the same time). Audio will lag when paired with bluetooth to a MacBook thus causing audio and video syncing issues.

    But if they disconnect for any reason, it takes a long time and a lot of annoying steps just to wait and let it reconnect.

    If you are looking for a home speaker that also works on a corporate network... or you are looking for a speaker that is super easy to set up... and you are not thinking about a whole-home speaker system (I have Sonos for that)... and you are looking for something that sounds good for its size-- this is it. I don't use the Siri stuff much (never), I just push music from my phone or AppleTV. Works and looks and sounds great.

    Bought two of these for separate rooms in the house. To me, sound comes out a little muffled. Needs an EQ to adjust the sound coming from Apple Music, then I believe the sound would be ok. However, the EQ settings for AM in the iPhone and ipad are basically worthless. So…. It is what it is for $100.00. Bought some little wood stands off Amazon and ended up keeping them.

    This is hands down the best smart speaker out there. I’ve tried almost all of them and live the sound and functionality from HomePod the best. I actually went back after a few weeks and got a second one and the way the two speakers manage stereo sound together is fantastic. I look forward to listening to music on my HomePod and it’s great for parties, too. Meanwhile, Siri is getting better and more useful and apple is quickly adding device compatibility.

    First the things that are good about this device... the hardware is high quality, and everything integrates flawlessly with the Apple ecosystem. It's secure. It's really cool being able to ask Siri to turn on and off HomeKit enabled devices, and you can access your Apple Music, messages, To-Do lists, and lots more. The main negative is that Siri doesn't understand things, a lot; the understanding performance is substantially worse than an Amazon Alexa product. Overall this is a definite buy for folks heavily integrated into the Apple ecosystem but only gets a mid-level rating from me due to these issues.
