Customer Ratings & Reviews

It's a good speaker...sounds good, looks pretty good, set up is easy. Good speaker I say.

Honestly sounds better than expected by a long shot. In smaller rooms it sounds amazing. In larger areas, it sounds good, it just doesn’t have the size to fill up a large space. I wasn’t wanting a smart speaker. I was more looking for a decent quality sound from a small speaker for a bedroom. But now having it I’ll be adding more of these to my house. The smart features actually work better and are more useful than I thought. Strong work on price and quality.

It sounds great, good price! Good bass, and Siri is cool!

Went to the store to find a Bluetooth speaker and was looking at Bose/JBL/Sonos/Marshall. Then remembered that Apple had a speaker. Found the home pod mini and was sure it would not sound good due to the size. After playing it we decided that that was the one and met the needs. I will say the one con is you cannot use it to play Bluetooth music. So keep that in mind compared to the other speakers. But price and sound make it worth it if you have Apple Music.

A great home companion for your apple devices. Easy to setup. Great sound in any room. And even better price point.

Apple mini has a great sound and easy to setup. Like the color.

What a wonderful purchase. Small in size with profound sound and clarity. Siri even here’s you when you whisper

First and foremost, I love the sound that comes from my HomePod. I also have an Echo 1, an Echo 2, an Echo Show, an Echo Dot and two Sonos Play:1 speakers. The HomePod sounds much better than any of the Echo Devices. The HomePod has very solid bass and very clear highs. Midrange is a little lacking though. The Echos sound flat and a little muddy in comparison. Compared to the Play:1, The HomePod has slightly stronger bass and slightly clearer highs. Where the Play:1 has an advantage is midrange. The sound from the Sonos is a little fuller overall but also a slightly muddier. The thing I like most about the Echo devices is their ability to play so many stations with voice commands. iHeartRadio and Radio.com are 2 of my favorite providers. I can play them on the HomePod but only thru my iPhone or iPad. I cannot ask for them with my voice. If I could, I would use the HomePod much more often. I can only use Apple Music with the HomePod using my voice. This is great if I know exactly the song and artist I'm looking for. However, the Apple Music playlists are not as good as the stations on iHeartRadio and I can't ask for local sports radio. I can only get ESPN radio using Siri. So far, my Play:1 speakers only work thru the Sonos app for me. I should be able to send music to them with an Echo but there is some sort of conflict on my network preventing them from working properly. If I can get this straightened out, I will stream more often to them. Overall I would recommend the HomePod to people that use the Apple ecosystem. Especially if you love Apple Music. Right now, I'm setting up my own apple Music Playlists. Once I do that, I will likely use the HomePod more. If I could use my HomePod like my Echo devices, I would give it 5 stars all day. But because Siri is so lacking in smarts, I deducted a star. Others might deduct more but I do love the sound...

I have a house full of Echo devices, and I'm beginning to replace them with these Apple HomePods. Since we have many iPhone, iPads, and Apple TVs in the house, it just makes it easier and better to have a HomePod system which easily works with everything else. The sound on these is great, and I really do like the minimal style of them. Definitely going to being picking up more of these.

Easy to use and works great! Setup is simple. Speaker sounds great.

I love this thing! The sounds is great & easy to pair with devices.

Excellent! Great quality sound. It also looks great and fits right in with any decor.

This speaker is better than Amazon’s! Sound fills the room. Bass is loaded. Quality Speaker.

Great device, HomeKit hub. Good sound for such a small device. Can hear me from the next room. Handoff works great.

I bought this to connect all of my smart gadgets but have been having a few issues connecting it as a hub. I do love how crisp and clear the sound is. I hear it clearly anywhere in my home.

We purchased a pair of these to use as small surround sound speakers for our bedroom, they were easily hidden and have good sound

Dang! Asked Best Buy folks quite a few questions before buying this, and some of what I said should have made it kind of apparent that I probably didn’t have Wi-Fi out here in the boonies. So, bought it and tried setting up for quite a while before finding out the problem: Need actual Wi-Fi and “Personal Hotspot” won’t cut it! From what I can tell, based on sounds during attempted setup, the bass is rather impressive for such a small speaker. Think I would have loved it but, sadly, I ended up returning it. Didn’t give a really low score because it wasn’t the product’s fault. :-(

Nice addition to our HomeKit house. Really easy to connect with great sound. We just have one but will be adding another later. Definitely recommended

Sound quality is very good and the sell size allows you to place all over your house. The family and kids love them!

Really good speaker, sound really great even though it small, i got a pretty much big room and it still sound loud
