Customer Ratings & Reviews

A great companion mini speaker for the kitchen. It syncs well with previously purchased full-size HomePods and is easy to control from Apple devices. The mini sounds great with multiple genres and for background music. It also sounds good at higher volumes but doesn’t have as much bass the regular HomePods.

Purchased many of these… forgot how many. But they are scattered around my home and produce great coverage for music and for listening for when I need to activate my home devices (such as lights and such).

I I am in love with this product. It’s so much better than the Amazon and google assistant. It does everything you ask it to do. I know with a few more updates this will only get better. Gotta remember it’s in its infancy so there are a few glitches. Still love it though

- individually they sound better than the Echo Spot, but probably more like the 2nd gen echo. - in stereo, better than either. For NPR and background dinner music it's entirely acceptable. - siri seems to be more sensitive than an echo. don't seem to have to yell at it - C did the initial setup. This was a mistake. Siri just didn't understand anything I said. Redid it and siri is behaving - Play NPR / Adele / etc works as expected - airplay is nice to have. really nice that I can just move the phone near the homepod and it transfers. doesn't work with the ipad. - Pandora is supported. That's nice. Nothing else though. But..... - if you switch the default music service to Pandora then asking Play NPR, stops working. - Play NPR One will lead to playing a song with "One" in the title. This seems to fall under 3rd party app and not supported. Airplay works fine. So these are going back into the box.

The HomePod is an incredible speaker. It really shines when you want to listen to music while walking about in a room v. facing the speaker head on while sitting on a counch. Unlike the other front firing speakers the sound stage on this speaker is great. The bass is very fast, smooth and consistent. In my testing, the HomePods are not only better than the Google Max in terms of sound and design, but can hold their own with my KEF bookshelf’s which I paid over $1,200 for on sale! The HomePods are better for everyday listening. I have an iphone X and I have no problem AirPlaying any source to the HomePod. Also, I have no problems using the HomePod with HomeKit. In the end, Apple Music is my favorite music source so issues like HomePod only responding to music commands from Apple Music isn’t an issue for me,

I have four of the original HomePods and love them, but wasn’t ready to pay the price for another one so I thought I’d try the mini. I’m not disappointed at all! Great sound quality, and SIRI accurately hears my commands.

I grabbed two of these on sale, but only used one initially, primarily for music. To that end, it banged, great sound. I only recently paired the second one with the first recently, but, no surprise, bangs even nicer in stereo. The limitations to connecting non-apple products is a major drawback, but I use mostly apple products, so limits the negative for me.

I like it .highly recommend.easy to pick up .great sound, easy to use . Ok that’s enough

Great purchase! I purchased two Apple - HomePod mini's and connected them as a stereo pair to the AppleTV in my office. Great sound! I'm glad I made this purchase. Good sound and value for the price!

Sound quality was better than I expected. And firmware updates over the last couple of years have solve small issues I've had. Like when Siri voice was not loud enough, even after setting up as such. Also, if you're putting together a robust, thread smart home setup with Apple's HomeKit, I think its essential to have 1 or 2 of these around the house.

I have placed two of these in my office to listen to music and take calls/send text. The sound is amazing (as a stereo pair). The only challenge I run into is if someone remotely says something close to “Siri.” The speakers will pickup the voice and begin searching. Other than that, I love my mini homepods.

Easy set up, sound quality is pretty decent. Is it worth the money? maybe not, but I got this while it was one sale.

This Apple accessory is one of my favorites .. it is small with a very crisp and loud sound..I love how it connection with your Apple phone and watch and can actually speak through the speakers with in calling and out going calls.. I love how it feels and very convenient for traveling too.. a must buy

I've been enjoying my Apple HomePod Mini. I am able to use siri to play music, do basic math, and set timers. It's like having a little assistant always with me. Siri also helps to write down my grocery items so I can remember to get them. The sound is great and helps keep me entertained while being at home.

Great product, this is actually the second one I’ve bought. Very happy with both. I’ll eventually have one for every area of the house!

Bought during a Black Friday deal, which knocked about 100 quid off the price, making this a very good deal. Sounds better than what you'd expect when you see and handle it. Plenty loud, but not to the point of being potentially too loud. Very clear with good highs, mid and lows for a speaker it's size. Might have a hard time filling the space of a huge open room, but would be fine in most homes. Siri is hit or miss, but mostly good with basic commands (changing volume, skipping/replaying/pausing songs, etc.) and not so great when it comes to asking it to play songs by title or artist using an Apple Music subscription (often plays something very different than what I asked for). For the price I paid, I'm very happy but at normal retail price I think it's a little high for what you get, but such is Apple. If you can get it discounted or don't mind the price, it's a great product perfect for use in a fitness room, home office, bedroom or even a decent size family room or kitchen. I do wish it had a built-in battery so that it'd be easier to move from room-to-room.

This speaker is awesome as a bedside speaker. I use it to set alarms to wake up and sometimes to call family when I am relaxed in my room. Sometimes it doesn't pick up the phone calls that I try to transfer, but I'm sure that it can be ironed out with a software update.

First off, live person here, not a paid review. My home is filled with Apple products so naturally I gravitated towards the HomePod despite there being several other options in the market. My primarily goal was the sound of the device and the HomePod delivers. Additionally, I've grown to use the Siri functions and actually find many of them to be quite helpful (setting alarms, playing music, setting timers, random Siri questions, etc.). The HomePod integrates seamlessly with Apple Music and also allows me to play anything via AirPlay. Lastly, the HomePod doubles as my device used to play sound for my AppleTV and that integration is rather seamless as well. Will I didn't pay the full $349 retail price, I do feel the speaker alone is worth the investment and the Siri functionality is an added bonus.

It’s a good companion to the Apple ecosystem if you’re into keeping everything the same. Just hate that you can’t use it as a regular Bluetooth speaker for other non apple devices. Good sound but don’t expect HEAVY bass.

The sound is amazing. I have two of them stereo paired to my apple tv. They work great for watching tv and films in an apartment living room. Handoff from iphone/apple music works great, too. I don't use any of the smart 'ask siri' functions, so i can't comment on those. But the sound really is remarkable.
