Customer Ratings & Reviews

Sounds great! But it won’t work at hotel rooms; it doesn’t use Bluetooth so it’s not good for traveling. It communicates to your iPhone through the router and hotel routers have extra security that blocks the communication. There may be a work around (read something on the net) but I haven’t tried it yet. At first setup, it seemed that only Apple Music would work. Not true! If you use Napster like I do, you use AirPlay not Bluetooth. You simply start the Napster app on your iPhone, swipe from bottom of iPhone screen to top and a controll screen appears. The top right box will represent the app currently in use (Napster) you must tap the top right of that box(it has a couple of radar like lines) to open it. Once opened, the bottom of it should show an iPhone icon with a check mark next to it. Below it should be a HomePod symbol with no check mark, tap the HomePod symbol. The check mark should now be next to the HomePod symbol. Music will now play through the HomePod. If some apps don’t work this way then look for a box shape with triangle over it (AirPlay symbol) and tap it and you should get the option to select HomePod as speaker choice. I held back a star because it lacks a speaker jack and or Bluetooth which could have made it more versatile. Sounds great though!!!. It’s best for home use with home router and Apple Music.

If you are considering purchasing a smart home speaker, the HomePod mini is an excellent choice. With Siri and HomeKit support, the HomePod mini is able to complete a variety of tasks and make my smart home come together. Recently I have purchased several smart home products, and am pleased to report that HomePod mini supports almost all of them.

Upgraded from the echo dot and I have to say, the HomePod is a must have. Easy to set up especially with other Apple products. Very responsive and the sound quality is out of this world, deep bass and crystal clear sounds through the speaker. Definitely would recommend.

Amazing sound and love the integration with the iPhones

Great sounding speaker. Good for music and podcasts.

This little mini pod is awesome and just as good as the larger ones.

Great sound and perfect to use with my movies. Nice to use in my bedroom.

It was very easy to use and worked excellent. I love the apple products.

very nice, very loud. I was surprised at the quality of the product!

Would give 5 stars but the cord is attached, but the sound is unbelievable to be such a small speaker. Great Value

Many would be hesitant to spend $300 on a smart speaker with so many more affordable options available (and rightly so), but you’re already invested in the Apple ecosystem and care about great sound quality you won’t be disappointed. I have a 2 HomePod setup that I use as a sound bar, and have been very pleased with experience so far. A commonly overlooked feature is that it supports playback controls with your voice, so if you need to pause or play the tv, just ask Siri! Keep in mind, this speaker is not a Bluetooth speaker. Apple uses Airplay 2 exclusively to deliver the highest sounds quality and greater range of connection. If you already have other Apple products and don’t plan to change, I say try it out!

Very nice to use and sounds wonderful for its size.

Fast delivery , excellent service, product is amazing . I switched out my Alexa home devices for these

Many years ago I bought an Apple HiFi and was very happy with the sound quality. I still use it with my 160gb iPod and the old-style plastic remote. Syncing the iPod these days, though, has become an iffy proposition -- I guess Apple is trying to convince owners to upgrade or something. The HomePod, on the other hand, is very bass-heavy, to the point where it's distracting on some tracks. However, I can play to it from my iPhone, iPad, iMac, MacBook, Apple TV, etc. No syncing required. I tried a stereo pair, and set-up was a bit fiddly, with the final sound not being that much better, or even different. One is plenty for casual listening. Although I use mine most of the time just for music, they make really good "home theater" speakers. There are plenty of shows these days where the dialogue is poorly recorded, and my TV speakers have to be cranked to understand what the characters are saying. With the HomePod, not only is the sound bigger and more immersive, but the dialogue bits are a lot clearer. Best of all, unlike Sonos and the others, you don't need extra apps or software to use the HomePod. Plug it in, initialize it with your iPhone, and you're off and running.

Love the speaker! Great quality! Totally recommend!

I had a Bose Blue Tooth speaker and it would never link up correctly, I decided to purchase the Apple HomePod, Best choice I made, Sound is amazing and the base is great, Since I have a iPhone I figured the HomePod would be a perfect match and it is.

Love Apple products! Sound quality is superb. Own both the main and mini

Big sound in a little package, sleek and small with great sound quality.

Easy setup, easy to use, and is user friendly. I would recommend it.

Works as it's suppose to. Easy to set up and link to your Apple devices.
