I have the bigger version of the HomePods and did not expect much out of the little brother. However I was pleasantly surprised with the sound and just how compact this speaker is. Great value for the price !!!

The HomePod Mini works great. Besides asking Siri questions and listening to music with it, the Mini controls most of my smart devices like door locks and smart plugs.

When they say mini , they really mean mini. Its the size of an oversized apple ( get it Apple ). Yet it packs sound power and bass. This home entertainment speaker is worth the buy.

I love mines! I have two around the house and the “find my” and intercom features are a godsend! The sound quality is nice, lacks bass in a larger room BUT the clarity makes up for it! In a smaller room the bass thumps.

The HomePod mini has some improvements over the HomePod: it's much less expensive and it will allow you to use it as a smart speaker that will interface with your other Apple devices and apps, including other HomePod minis, Apple TV and the Apple Home app. The main drawback of the mini is that the sound is not nearly as full and complex as the original. Apple has clearly made a strategic decision to develop a consumer product that will be competitive with Amazon Echo smart speakers, and sound quality is a calculated sacrifice for market penetration. The mini allows the creation of "scenes" along with the Home app so that you can, for example, program your Apple TV to turn on and play a favorite channel when you say, "Hey Siri, Arrive Home." The mini requires some patience: not everything is intuitive and to take full advantage of this new member of the Apple ecosystem you'll have to invest some research.

Awesome sound and easy setup. I got two and I would really prefer it. One on each side of the tv. In a room that’s about 30 by 25 foot. Sounds great. Best Buy shipped it faster the Apple could do I ordered through Best Buy instead.

I’d take this over the Original HomePod ..it’s more functional and it doesn’t take up much room. And if your in the Apple ecosystem you will definitely enjoy this. The Sound from this tiny speaking is The selling point.

Considering the size, this is a powerful little speaker! I have a few original homepods which are amazing sound system. The HomePod Mini adds more high quality sound to additional rooms at affordable pricing! Highly recommend!!!

I have two of these now and paired them for stereo. They sound good, especially considering the size. I also use them with Siri for smart home control.
I have had them for 5+ months with no problems.

Great sound no it listens to me when I talk to it. Hey Siri! I like it. Super easy to put on music instantly. Just ask it to and tell it what type of music you want to hear.

I have really enjoyed this and will probably purchase others. I wish Apple offered a screen such as its competitors, but... Anyway, it offers good sound and I like the size and price of it.

Great sound quality for the size of this HomePod. Could never bring myself to buy the big one but at this price point it definitely exceeds the google home and Amazon Alexa devices. Also works seamless with my other Apple products.

I have tried all different options and apple proves to be the beat option for me. Its non evasive , seemingly most secure device plays music, answers questions and controls devices without ads or other nonsense interruptions. The sound is amazing from a small device.

Sounds great, but it could be a little louder for a space larger than a bathroom. I have two of them and they occasionally lag on the communication between them, or completely fail. I use it primarily for music.
