Customer Ratings & Reviews

We got this as a gift for my niece, and she loves it. She is just getting into having a phone and having her own little bit of technology and this was the perfect addition. Her mom said she has loved being able to play music in her room and just make her space a little more her own. So a total win!

Sound is superb, for the small size, music transfer from phone is very convenient

such a good purchase! definitely love using it and easy to install

W product, plays music and stuff of that nature. Wish it would actually answer my question instead of telling me to ask my phone but it’s allright!

It’s a very nice speaker for the size. A pretty large sound comes out of this thing. The microphone will pick you up from the next room when using it to control your smart home. As many have said Siri is not as good as other assistants in answering questions but that is probably the only shortcoming.

What a great sound this little thing produces. I had my doubts but now I’ll probably get one or 2 more to put around the house. Paired with Apple Music this thing is amazing!

Love this item perfect for my bathroom. Sounds is a amazing apple rocks

Great! It works exactly as you need. Its always there, responds well to Siri and looks great with most decore. Much easier on the eye than the homepod. It also has incredible sound dynamics! Comes in a variety of colors. We have both gray and white to match our home.

Perfect in every way. I’m a tried and true Apple fan. This is the second Apple home pod I purchased to set up a more immersive experience in sound. I love it.

Good device all around. The quality to the sound is better than my Echo Dots, but the volume doesn’t go as high as the echo dot, I’m assuming the quality starts to degrade at that point. Overall asking Siri a question it is not as quick and responsive as any of the latest Apple products but gets the job done just the same. When you unbox it and start to play with it I felt like I could tell it came out 4 years ago and really needs a refresh with the newer hardware

It is excellent. I have had to force reset all the recent HomePods I have purchased by holding down the center until it turns red. To speculate, I wonder if Home/Homekit may be several versions newer than the out of box firmware on the HomePods. Overall, excellent device and Atmos playback when synced as a pair. Can’t beat Apple Security either when running iCloud with a proper configuration.

If you're a fan of Apple products, this won't disappoint. We owned a pair of Sonos Play 1, which were also great but I've enjoyed the HomePod even more because: setup is much easier, it sounds just as good (actually, better in terms of base and depth of sound), it's a more flexible system - easier to move around and readjust and easier to pair with additional speakers (we purchased 2 HomePods), and of course, it's a smart device and it works very well with other HomeKit compatible devices. We're able to control all of our devices with the HomePod. The HomePod instantly became a part of the family or so my children thought as they seem to call out for Siri throughout the day, every day.

Sadly, I have been growing increasingly disappointed with Apple products over the last 18-24 months. I had high hopes for this speaker. In terms of audio quality we enjoy the sound. Siri commands are nominal which is about what you'd expect at this point as Siri is fairly limited. Our biggest disappointment with the speaker is the ability to play music from various devices in the home on the network. It only syncs up with one primary itunes account and then has a strong default to only that music. There are times we'd like to more easily stream music from our amazon music or other audio from videos etc. and it just isn't very smooth or streamlined. Overall, we might purchase a second one as we had planned, but the first experience has definitely given us pause on this decision. We may ultimately decide to go ahead with it, but now we have more realistic expectations i suppose. Just seems like the user experience switching from phones or computer on the WiFi network in the house would have been easier and not feel so limiting.

For the HomePod to be such a small item, it packs a punch in terms of sound. It is not 100% perfect in terms of software, but this is something that can be fixed.

Excellent smart speaker. The sound was much better than I expected (my wife thought that I was listening to music on a bigger speaker). And the control of the HomePod mini was seamless.

As with everything apple, easy to install and use. And i chain multiple pods up in a permanant or temporary group which is a game changer for me.

Little speaker with a big sound. Not quite as great as the original Homepod that ~350 but this is much more affordable. Works great with your iphone or Ipad or Mac. I have two of these and they are pefectly in sync between room to room, its amazing and it "Just Works".

I was hopeful the price would come down. I patiently waited and it did. I own an Apple TV and a Roku. when you listen to music with the HomePod, the sound is amazing. I’m working on getting better speakers for my AVR. The set up I have right now sounds great when you’re watching a movie. Not so much for music alone. Saving up for better quality speakers. The only con I have to say is the electrical cord is a little short. You can’t place it far from a wall without an extension cord. The best thing I like is it doesn’t try to sell you anything. Oh yeah, the bass from this little cylinder HomePod surprised me. Amazing. Siri fun to have. Gotta get used to talking to it so it’s a learning curve. I’m thinking of getting one more to go stereo with it. Maybe at Christmas time.

Has the usual amazing Apple product design, elegant look, amazing sound. Main flaw is the software being extremely buggy and laggy. iPhone 11, has connection stalls, volume controls on phone stop working, doesn’t connect to airplay on Mac reliably, “handoff” feature relies heavily on network connection.

these little guys pack a punch. i have a few all over the house and they work very well. Just be careful what you say in front of them because they are always listening to your conversations and then what you talked about will start to show up in you social media feeds.
