We loved our first HomePod and when they went on sale, we couldn't wait to set up our Homepods in stereo. They actually are so precise it is a surround sound in our house that has plenty of volume, decent bass that was unexpected and with Apple Music, we can play anything we wish at any time. They are also a wonderful control for the house with a bonus of being the pest phone speaker I have ever used. They pick up your voice clearly anywhere in the house for hands free and group conversations. I plan on picking up another one for the office to use for both music and for our conference calls.

Bought 2 open box Homepod Minis, both in white, at separate times within 2 weeks of each other.
Harder to find yellow and orange versions.
It's still Overpriced for what it is but saved some money by buying the open box returned items.
Wipe them both down with disinfect wipes to clean.
One qualified for Applecare while the other did not. Doesn't matter as it won't leave the house and both appeared really new as in people returned it almost immediately so BB can't resell as new.
The sound is acceptable, considering it's only used for streaming music and audiobooks from my iPhone.
Set them up to have stereo pairing, one on the left and one on the right of each other and used in the living room.
There's a slight pause when turning on to stream but it works.
Siri is a pain as it doesn't work well so only used to get outside weather temperature and the current time.
What's needed for future versions:
1. Battery power option
2. Removable power cable, like the bigger Homepod 2.
3. Include the Bluetooth functionality
4. Work with other devices like PCs/laptops and Non-Apple TVs (as a normal (dumb) speaker)
5. Add stereo pairing with the bigger Homepod speaker
6. Add the update button in the Home app
7. Add instructions on how to Reset the mini (press down on top until lights turn red then white, hopefully it beeps to tell you that it's done).
There are other brands with better speakers and prices that offer better functionality.
Apple's Homepod [Mini] speakers are meant for Apple users in the Apple ecosystem.

Practically got this for half price with black Friday deals and credit from Best Buy. At first I thought it wasn’t worth the price, but after using it for a while, for its size the volume and clarity this provides is amazing.
The fact that it is always updating to ensure even playback is an amazing algorithm, not to mention the fact that “Hey, Siri” can hear you even over loud music.
Definitely will purchase more for other rooms and stereo pairing. Airplay 2 is hands down the best. I can now tell my Apple TV to play audio on my HomePod and vice-versa, so I can have full audio playing throughout my place without missing a beat.

Works seamlessly with all other Apple products. Surprisingly loud and sound levels are still crisp at higher volume levels. I would recommend getting this if you have an Apple ecosystem or would make for an awesome gift!

I love how easy it is to connect to my iPhone. And the sounds quality is surprisingly really great!

We have always used the Amazon Alexa. Our son wanted the HomePod mini and because of its quality we will never go back to anything other than this speaker.
The clarity is amazing and you can feel the bass. This is worth of cent we paid!

The sound and build quality was way better than i initially expected. The sound is room filling and hey the siri works great. You can be really far away and just say "Hey siri" and it will pickup your voice.

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.

Better than I expected. I currently own the regular HOMEPod, and wasn't sure this small one would live up to the hype.
Glad to say, the sound is spectacular and couldn't believe how beautiful it looks.

Daughter received mini HomePod for Christmas and loves it. She now feels she has a stereo in her bedroom. She thinks the speaker looks best in the white color. Family has the older, larger model in black.

Sounds amazing for the size. If you are heavy in the Apple Ecosystem, this is a must have. If you have multiples you can set up an intercom system. Device is highly responsive and doesn’t take up a lot of space.

Overall this was good.
The sound was pretty good as well enough to fill a small room. However there were a few things I couldn’t get used to, like not being able to say “hey Siri play this specific playlist on Spotify”. These don’t automatically connect to Spotify nor your playlists. So if you’re a Spotify user I would not recommend. However if you’re an ALL APPLE USER by all means go ahead a purchase. I personally prefer Alexa as it is more flexible to third party apps and this is NOT.

The HomePod delivers stunning audio clarity with deep bass and crisp highs that fill the entire room. Siri responds quickly, and the setup took just a few minutes with my iPhone. It connects effortlessly with all Apple devices and makes home automation a joy. Perfect for music lovers and anyone in the Apple ecosystem. Worth every penny!

Small in size but excellent volume. The sound quality is excellent. Bought this as a smart speaker, but the additional bonus of being a speaker/mic for iphone calls is great!

Works well. Easy setup. Great sound. More products need HomeKit support. I bought this because I thought works with Siri meant my lights worked with HomeKit. I found out that they were two different things the hard way.

This is a great addition to Apple's ecosystem. Functions just the same as the original HomePod. Sound quality is excellent for such a small device. Can be placed in many more places than the original HomePod due to its very small size.
