Customer Ratings & Reviews

I bought the HomePod mini because I am a big Apple fan, and I was excited when I saw that the HomePod mini would bring this kind of device in a more accessible price range. However, the size is more "mini" than I expected - and the sound quality, too (which is somehow understandable, given the small size - physics can not be tricked that much...). But nevertheless, a nice sound device for Apple fans, which works pretty well and sounds correct given the small size. In the meantime, I also bought the "real" HomePod, and the difference is impressive - the big HomePod really sounds "big". The good thing is that both work nicely together, so I would say, if you can spend 300$ and have enough space for the HomePod, buy the big one, and the mini if you need a connected system.

Convenient, great quality and great sound. I was surprised when my son opened it and set it up with his iPhone the sound of the music was excellent. And for it being so small it’s very loud. Glad I got it for him.

Pros: -Setup was easy. It auto-configured when I held my iPad next to it. -Sound was great when connected to my AppleTV -I liked using Hey, Siri on the HomePod mini. The microphones hear Hey, Siri even from a different room. Cons: -I couldn’t make it the default audio for AppleTV. I had to manually select it each time I used AppleTV. -HomePod mini is tiny...smaller than I expected. -Sound is not good for playing music. -Sound echoed when used as a speakerphone. In the end, I returned it because I really wanted to use it to play music and to handoff phone conversations. The sound quality didn’t meet my expectations for either.

This is a great small speaker. The sound is the best I’ve heard from a speaker this size. The speaker is easy to use and setup. The only downside is there is no Bluetooth, you have to have an apple device.

We love our mini HomePod sounds really good we replaced our Alexa for this mini and definitely no regrets love that we can connect it to our phone for sure getting another one or two for upstairs and kitchen

Wow - what a beast this little thing is. I have 4 normal sized HomePods and bought this for the bathroom. I think it could almost keep up with the big ones! Surprising bass from such a little thing too.

Fantastic sounding speaker to control all your HomeKit products. Be aware that if you buy it open box, Best Buy team does not factory reset it. To be able to utilise it make sure you go through the reset steps or you will be frustrated when it doesn’t work on delivery.

I like my Mr. Siri a lot. The sound quality is good for its size, and it has a fast response!

Sound better than expected. I have a Sonos home and wanted to give these little guys a chance. Ended up buying two when they were on sale for 20% off. I have them paired in stereo and tied to an Apple TV 4K in my office. For they size they do have a decent sound quality but do not compare to a Sonos one. I wanted better sound for my office TV so have these a shot. They were cheaper then a Sonos beam but work great for my requirements. I haven’t figured everything out about them yet. Seems I won’t ever use their full features without have these all over the house. We use Sonos with Alexa all over so most of my smart home devices aren’t HomeKit compatible.

Bought this mini HomePod, as I wasn’t completely sold on the HomePod. I’m used to buying Harmon kardon Bluetooth speakers. 100$. Great little speaker. Very responsive, easy to use , good sound. If you like Apple products this one is a great addition to your home, or office.

The quality works great works right at the box. Easy to set up with new iPhone works great with Apple Music.

Great sound. Great hub for smart home. We’ll bit more later. Cheaper than the big one.

Really good punch for the size! I bought this as a gift for someone and I have the original HomePod which sound is amazing. The mini is very loud for its size without distortion. Very pleased with the purchase.

A nice addition to the Apple ecosystem. It sounds good and works as a hub for your HomeKit accessories. Setup is quick and easy using your iPhone. I have the original HomePod setup as a stereo pair and I believe these would make a great stereo system especially for smaller spaces.

returned. too much configuration needed for certain apps and devices to properly work. some aren't supported at all.

I love this little speaker. I use it in my pool room area and it enhances the sound of my HomePod. Color is accurate. I'll add Apple TV later so I can use it when the game is on.

Was tired of Alexa pushing things to sell. I had the original echo. The sound from the little speaker is very good. Cannot handle as complex of requests like Alexa can, but it doesn't try to push things too me.

We purchased two of these and it has been a great addition to our household the kids love it and we can intercom between rooms and it really has great sound! We will be getting more to place around the house!

Bought this to run and operate my apple HomeKit. It has made using my Apple TV’s, lights, and my other smart devices very simple. I plan to buy a couple more just to have around the house.

Awesome device for my home. I like how this is a lot smaller then the original model. It works great with my home automation setup. Speaker inside has good quality sound but I don’t fully use it for that purpose.
