Great sounds from a small speaker. Apple Music and all its features makes a nice tool for the price.

Great sound from the HomePod, especially if you pair it with another for true stereo sound. Siri works okay, but I mainly just use this as a music speaker. It has amazingly good bass for its size. It also works well with an Apple TV using AirPlay.

This is the best device ever. Turns on/off TV, changes smart bulb color, announces security issues, plays my downloaded music, I "drop in" on my 95 yr old mother in law and if she falls she can say "Alexa, call Patty.

Sounds great for its size. It’s a better deal than the full sized HomePod for what I need it to do.

Really great sound. Connecting, syncing, or playing different audio was a bit of a challenge. Ease of use could be improved.

An Excellent Speaker, a Not So Excellent Assistant

I want to like this so much more than I am able to. First the good stuff. This is a fantastic speaker. The HomePod coupled with Apple Music is a great combination. The music fills the room, is rich, and clear. I have tried several standalone speakers, most connecting through Bluetooth, and the HomePod has bested them all in sound quality.
Now the not-so-good stuff. Siri, the familiar assistant, is nearly impotent. There’s almost nothing outside of playing music that it has successfully performed for me. And even in the music area it falters. For example, I figured surely Siri and the HomePod could create a station or play an audiobook, but it can’t. At least it can’t play an Audible audiobook (which, honestly, I half expected as Audible is Amazon’s app). Siri can’t do anything in my house with the smart devices I have set up, whereas Alexa is all over it. Alexa is straight up better than Siri by light years.
My hope is that Apple will get on the ball and roll out a great update that will drastically improve the HomePod’s assistant abilities...but, I’m not holding my breath. And that’s a shame, because this area seems right up Apple’s ecosystem alley, connecting and supporting all of it’s technology in a well integrated system. This feels like a gaping hole in that system out of which Amazon is siphoning valuable potential.
Meanwhile, Amazon’s Alexa is adding Apple Music to its repertoire soon. I’ve adopted Alexa now for my smart home gadgetry, and it’s going to be tough for Apple to pry me loose from it, even if they start showing some love to the HomePod assistant functionality.
But, man, that HomePod speaker? And having two in a stereo pairing? Amazing.

I have heard great things about the Home Pod Mini but I thought it was a wireless bluetooth speaker and this is not that so I returned it.
