Bought 2 units to test upstairs and downstairs as intercoms and to control some home automations as well. Easy to set up, use, and connect to. Will be adding more as well now to control different areas as well as communications with the intercom ability.

I do love this speaker. I purchased an open box so I paid a little bit less. The sound is very good comparing to the Echo Premium sound and the google nest mini. I have stereo pairs of all three but decided to sell the Echo when I got the HomePod minis. I have noticed a lag when pairing with Apple TV. I have used the calibration tool more than once. Maybe when apple allows them as default tv speakers? But they are very cool! I love the integration with my phone and watch. I am especially happy with this purchase since apple began supporting lossless quality Apple Music streaming.

If you live in the Apple ecosystem, then I recommend at least one of these. Providing the "core functionality of a voice assistant (minus the gimmick you get from Alexa or Google) is helpful under the right cases. We use them for our smart home, as intercoms, as well as for timers/alarms/reminders. Great for playing music, but lack as tv speakers. You gotta really want them for more than one to make sense.

I have a pair of these in one room and a pair of Home Pods in our family room. Very good sound for a small speaker.
Nice that you can pair two of them for stereo. Also nice that you can use them as a sound source for Apple TV 4K, (not sure if it works the same way with a standard Apple TV).
That said, if your looking for excellence with an Apple speaker pair, better to splurge for the Home Pod. The Home Pods are a big step up from the Home Pod mini. But you’ll pay for it.
When looking for smart speakers and smart home devices, privacy should be a consideration. Compare Apple privacy with other companies smart device agreements.

Perfect size and shape for small spaced areas. Sound is loud enough but not too much where it takes away from the quality of the sound.

Overall, I really like the HomePod mini. The sound quality is great, and the Siri functions work seamlessly. The only reason I'm giving the product 4 stars is due to the inconsistent handoff from my iPhone to the HomePod.

These little speakers pack one hell-a of a punch an the dynamic range is insane for such a small speaker.

Amazing sound from Apple in a space saving size that features rich bass and clarity in audio quality! ❤️

Best Sounding Smart Speaker in the market

The HomePod by far is the best sounding smart speaker you can buy on the market. However, due to the fact many manufacturers don’t support Apple HomeKit, Siri falls behind in terms of overall functionality. But the main highlight of the HomePod is the sound. Though the sound is room filling, it is best when it is stereo paired, which dramatically changes the entire listening experience. Also, if you have 2 HomePods and an Apple TV 4K, you can use HomePods for Dolby Atmos sound which is amazing. Overall, it’s a really good sounding speaker and has tons of bass, yet somehow remains balanced, presumably due to the fact there is a dedicated sub component within the HomePod which is about 4”. The audio is very clear, and the HomePod gets very loud. In my experience, I would recommend putting the HomePod about 5-7 inches away from a wall, this will give the HomePod better functionality in terms of its sound beaming capabilities. it makes a huge difference, it’s just the basic physics of sound. One thing that is important to note is that this device is for people who are heavily invested into the Apple EcoSystem, and are subscribers of Apple Music, because yes they do have 3rd party music support from platforms such as Spotify and Pandora, however the functionality is not ideal due to it still being implemented and developed. Also this is not a Bluetooth speaker and is only AirPlay compatible, meaning you need an Apple device to stream to it, if you aren’t using Siri on the HomePod to ask it play music.

Quality sound in a small package. Get two and play in stereo. Siri still hasn't got the smarts of the competition, but she's getting better. Would buy again.

I love this little guy. It sounds great, fast, responsive. Looks good on a table or shelf. Comes attached to a nice braided cable and includes the 20w charger.

Wanted one because of the apple ecosystem but I was pleasantly surprised by the sound quality for this size and this price.
I'll be getting another one to pair.

I love HomePod minis have multiple in the house. As an open box though it took a bit of setting up, as it had obviously been connected to someone else’s WiFi and account before being retuned. But a quick reset and now it’s part of a great stereo setup in the bathroom!!

Excellent sound quality for the price and size. I got this as a Christmas present for my roomate. He’s loved it so far and it’s so loud for the size, bass is somewhat lacking but that’s to be expected for something this size.

Honestly it’s a much better value than the HomePod. It doesn’t take up a ton of space and still have extremely good audio quality despite its fairly small size
