    Apple Homepod

    Love my homepod. The sound quality is awesome. The loudness and bass for a speaker this size is crazy. It’s so much better not having to airplay my music. I just ask siri and she plays it directly from the speaker.

    Best Buy delivered when they said they would and Apple did the rest with this amazing product. I put this one in the kitchen which is at least 20X20 sq. feet. The HomePod mini fills the room completely with rich sound.

    Purchase two HomePod minis to attach to my Treadmill while working out. Sound quality is excellent with decent bass connects seamlessly to iPhone, and works well with Siri while running.

    Sound is great for a little device. Love the ability to pair with my iTunes! Siri isn't quiet as intelligent as Alexa though ;)

    Great sound for playing music but not very good for using it for surround around sound for TV. If you don’t have a sound bar, this is much better than having only TV speaker. Great stereo amongst two devices, however not as good as the larger version of this product.

    It is good for the price. The speakers are phenomenal and work great with my sound system at home. Additionally, the smart home integration with Apple Home is flawless. I have several Nanoleaf tiles and Philips Hue lightbulbs around the house and it can control every one without breaking a sweat. It is also great for productivity, as you can ask Siri to read your text messages, send them, call somebody, and play music, just to name a few. Excellent value for money. Definitely would buy again.

    Good sound quality without breaking the bank. I wanted a small speaker on my desk so I could listen to music or videos without having to use my earbuds. This looks and sounds great. The intercom feature is a nice bonus.

    Using a set of these as in house intercoms. And the color is nice and easy to spot. Playing music is only an okay experience, but I didn't expect earth shattering bass in a package this small so not taking an egg off.

    WOW! Love this mini. Use it everyday. The sound is top notch compared to others in this price range. As expected for any Apple product, the quality is superb and easy to use with your devices. Highly recommend, have bought the large homePod and 2 minis.

    Awesome little speakers! I bought one and fell in love. The audio quality and Apple's ease of use are very impressive. I enjoyed it so much I purchased another one. They are great to place throughout the house.

    You have your Apple TV... it's perfect because they connect, and you can watch your movies like in the cinema... subwoofer sound (not so loud but it sounds good enough for a bedroom) when you listen to music, it sets aside notifications from your iPhone and calls, I recommend it for cheap.

    This is easily the most useless and unsuccessful Apple product I’ve owned. It’s the first time I’ve felt genuinely undersatisfied with an Apple purchase. Apple markets HomePod as offering “seamless transfers,” but that only applies to music. You cannot transfer or use it for app-based calls like Zoom, Teams, or WhatsApp. A basic $30 Bluetooth speaker can handle those without issue. In that sense, this is objectively worse than a cheap speaker. Sound quality is not impressive either. It’s fine, but nothing special, and in my experience not better than an Amazon Echo. For the price, it’s overpriced and underwhelming. The behavior is also unreliable. It randomly starts playing music without any clear trigger, and when that happens, you often can’t even stop or control it properly from the phone. This has happened multiple times, and it feels unpredictable and buggy. Connection with a Mac is unstable. You cannot rely on it as a permanent external speaker. It disconnects, fails to reconnect, and generally does not behave like a normal audio device. Bottom line: this is not a smart speaker in any practical sense. It’s a very restricted music appliance with confusing limitations that Apple does not clearly disclose. Honestly, a $15 knockoff Bluetooth speaker would be more versatile and seamless for everyday use. Extremely disappointing.

    Extremely EASY to set up and to use! Very powerful with great volume. Will respond if you are in a different room and even upstairs. It is totally hands free. I have used three other products similar to this one and the HomePod Mini is by far the best!

    I bought this to replace a first generation HomePod that was in the kitchen. Given that HomePods are selling at twice their original price on eBay and I only used it while cooking, it made sense to me to sell and replace it with a mini. We're deeply in the Apple and Siri eco-system, so it helps with cooking timers, turning stuff on/off, and listening to music and podcasts. So why just 4 stars? The first generation HomePod's sound is just really hard to beat. The mini sounds tinny and shallow, but I'm also an audiophile with a collection of speakers, hifi components, and more headphones than people probably should have, so take my opinion on the sound with a grain of salt. We do have two minis in the main bedroom and when paired together for stereo, you can get close to the sound of a single HomePod. Ultimately, if you need something to just provide background music while doing chores in a single space, the mini fills that need and at $100, it's a good value.
