Great product. Wonky setup. Still worth it!

Bought two of these to make a quick stereo speaker setup for a bedroom and was blown away by the soundstage these are able to provide even when the speakers are on the rear nightstands! It was a bit of a pain getting them to properly connect to an AppleTV due to a weird iCloud issue, but now that they are working right, they’re perfect!
The 2 biggest things for me were the alarm feature (so it’s louder than my phone) and the intercom feature (girlfriend can walkie-talkie like the Apple Watch) as I am a DEEP sleeper.

It’s an awesome little speaker unit for the home. I enjoy the veneer of respect for my privacy that is lacking from Amazon and Google, particularly when I do not need to pay for any subscriptions for use. There are some slight adjustments I needed to make in switching between my phone and the two home pods. You need to switch from the home pods to your phone for music and podcasts, or you can leave separate playlists running between your devices.

It has a nice quality sound to it, it also is a great Bluetooth speaker with Wi-Fi ability. But the only downside is it doesn’t have the ability to connect directly by usb to my Mac mini as a speaker it’s all Bluetooth connection. It would’ve been great to have both options
I would recommend it to a friend specifically for Bluetooth

I’m very impressed with this product. It was the second one I bought. I have one in the master bedroom and one in the living room. Seriously thinking about getting another one and setting them up as a pair in the living room.

Good little device, super easy to set up. Not quite as smart as Alexa, but I trust apple just a bit more. Also, you can use it to tell Siri to ping your phone, which is great because I always loose mine.

I'm a person who doesn't use a smart light, a smart home electronics so to me the speaker aspect of it is really worth it. The HomePod is definitely one of the best purchases I've made this year. It has such an outstanding sound quality with just one in the room. I did a test to see how loud this speaker is so I put it on 75% volume, closed my bedroom and walked around the house and I could still hear it from upstair and downstairs. The con with this device is it has difficulty recognizing classical music. Siri just butchers some of the classical and when you try to repeat it in the way Siri does, it won't be able to play that piece of music so you have to manually play the song in via iTunes or from your Apple device.
This review is from Apple - HomePod - Space Gray

I purchased 2 original Homepods back when they were first released, and could not believe the sound that came from such a small speaker. this one is way smaller, and the sound is almost as good.

Great addition to our Siri based smart home. Feature rich and easy to set up. Voice recognition allows for personalized commands. Will be adding several more throughout the home. Good sound quality for background music.

Bought this for our kitchen/sunroom, and didn’t really expect much because of the size. Figured I’d try the smaller version before dropping more money on the bigger one. Might have to just stick with this one, because it has surpassed my expectations.

The sound quality is surprisingly good from this little speaker. The low end is not super deep, but it well controlled. In addition, the microphone array for Siri commands seems to work as well as the regular HomePod in my room. I would definitely recommend!

Great mini speaker. I thought you would be able to pair the small ones with the larger ones but you cannot so I had to buy an extra mini. It was easy to set up but its been difficult utilizing this speaker as my tv speaker instead of the default ones.

If you use Siri or Apple Music this is a must have! Wasn’t sure about the product when I purchased it but it is amazing super easy setup and operation. Turns your whole house into voice controlled jukebox and the sound is unbelievable for such a small device.

Amazing compact assistant. I have a Alex dot and this by far out does it in every competition. The bass when playing music is very good for the size. A little pricey but you won’t regret it

This is a very nice sounding speaker for the price, in my opinion. I use it in my kitchen and it sounds nice. I was really suspicious because I am used to the full size HomePod but the mini has great sound ( I would just avoid cranking it all the way up)

This HomePod mini sits on my nightstand and makes a great replacement for an old alarm clock. I have Siri wake me with my favorite U2 song and then stream my favorite station, give me the weather report. Surprising great sound from such a small speaker.
