    I was kinda shocked on how well this device works . I love how small but powerful it is great for the kids ! I will say I was having a little trouble connecting my phone but once I updated my phone it was running smoothly! Not sure if that had anything to do with it or not . But overall it’s great for the price and a good gift to give !!

    Setting up the Apple HomePod mini is a breeze when using my Apple phone. It took seconds to get it connected to the WiFi and account and my favorite feature is being able to tap the top to transfer what is playing from my phone to the HomePod. The quality of sound and loudness is also par none.

    Sounds clear, goes fairly loud and overall works great. Easy to airplay sound from a phone to it. Sound for the size is impressive, and I liked that the settings allow for bass boost or cut depending on where the HomePod is located (ie reducing bass if near a wall or corner).

    I really like the small size. I bought it mainly to serve as a hub for Homekit. It’s super sensitive so don’t try to get Siri on your phone if nearby- the pod will pick up. The speaker sounds good for a small space. Overall, happy with the purchase. If I wanted a speaker for a large space I’d pick the Homepod.

    So far it's been great. I had Google home Mini's (Free or very cheap price paid) and these sound better and are more useful because I have apple devices. Yes, you can't mount them to a wall, but I can live with that inconvenience. They are a great size. I will definitely be getting another one. So my whole house is covered. The full size is still a better option I think for bigger rooms. I use mine in the kitchen, bathroom, office. Full size in the bedroom and AppleTV/Soundbar for the living room.

    Inch per Inch, this little mini packs a punch. The sound is crystal clear, bass is on point. For what I need it to do, it does it and does it well. I use it my home office and a creates a beautiful sound,

    Best smart speaker I’ve had

    I’ve had a google assistant speaker, an Alexa and by far this one is the best, the sound quality and the way the product was manufactured to get that nice bass punch makes it feel so immersive. The highs and mids aren’t too overpowered or overpowered. And when you are playing music from your phone you can either AirPlay it like any Bluetooth speaker or bring it close to the pod and it starts playing there. I use it everyday!

    Fantastic sound in a cute package! The sound from this speaker, which is about the size of a coffee mug, is totally unbelievable! I have mine near a wall, and there isn’t that “in your face” sound from bouncing off the wall and it sounds rich and not tinny It took me about 2 minutes to get it set up, synched and that was it! I have another system that took me DAYS to get figured out, numerous calls to tech support, but not with this speaker. I haven’t had any need to set up a second one—yet

    We decided to go with Apple’s HomePod minis as a bargain way to begin smart home accessories using Apple’s HomeKit. We aren’t ready to invest in the full setup yet, but love the versatility of the HomePod mini. From intercom ability throughout our home to controlling and playing music and audio, it is a delightful experience. You find yourself using it more than expected thanks to the Siri functions and it is fun exploring the other abilities of the HomePod mini. A great listening experience!

    Purchased 3 of these and have them in various rooms of my house. Really good sound & love how I like how I can play over all or select what speaker/room to play. Works better with HomeKit than using my phone/iPad when using “Hey Siri”. Intercom feature is also neat but not something I use regularly. Looks great, sounds good & offers enhanced functionality. Highly recommend for the price point & get more than one if possible for better experience. Setup was seamless & quick.

    This has great sound for such a small smart speaker. Works great with stereo pair (adding another homepod). The only downsides are software based with siri not being as good as her counterparts. But once set up (which is very easy with a iPhone) it’s a great device with amazing voice recognition technology. If I can change something it would only be how many commands that siri can handle, but I would choose this over alexa and google assistant even though it has less devices that you can use with them. Only reason I prefer this is the Apple ecosystem and the added security over other smart home speakers.

    Very simple to setup - walks you through it and only a few steps. All very well designed to pair with the app. Have connected multiple accessories to it, used Siri and had it play music - so far, no issues or concerns whatsoever. Being able to remotely access the temperature and humidity is also a plus

    HomePod mini surprised me. I have a couple of full sized HomePods and I love the sound they produce. I knew the mini couldn’t deliver the same sound, but it really does deliver a great sound. No distortion, even with the volume maxed out. A stereo pair of minis deliver very nice sound. The mini is perfect for an office or kitchen. And if you are wanting to get started with other smart devices (light bulbs and switches) this is an affordable way to get started with HomeKit and Thread devices.
