Customer Ratings & Reviews

We bought a few of these to expand our home theatre to stream music (Spotify) to the kitchen and bathroom (we also have Apple TV 4K/HomeKit and Nanoleaf smart bulbs). For their size, I think the sound is clean and balanced, yet I have definitely heard better in slightly larger and/or more expensive products. If you're into the Apple infrastructure, I think they're a great addition, especially for smaller rooms.

Sound is top notch and clear. Not so loud that they would distort but more than enough to fill the room with sound. If you can I'd get two and use them as a pair.

The speaker sounds amazing, but I'm a little disappointed with the lack of open bluetooth for this speaker. My intention was to use this with my M1 Mac mini, but due to the fact it only uses airplay and not bluetooth, there is a constant 2-3 second delay for nearly all sounds played. Additionally, you can't set it to be used to play system sounds for some reason, and they disconnect from the Mac when not used/when the Mac sleeps so you must manually select the HomePods as your audio output source each time. Apple definitely is missing the mark on these as the don't "just work" for me. Hopefully they update them via software to enable bluetooth. As a speaker paired with my iPhone they sound phenomenal and definitely say they're worth it if bought on sale - just not worth it for my use case I suppose!

Love the color and fits that Midcentury vibe I have going on. Love the ease of integration with my device.

Great sound for gaming even better when paired with 2. Awesome use for Siri and talking for calls and texting.

I got this Home Pod mini to play my purchased iTunes. Success! Easy set up. Sounds great.

Great sound from such a small speaker very clear and crisp. Easy to work.

Works extremely well in the apple eco system work as smart home bridge and speaker. Very nice sound, loud and clear.

Love it, I bought this product for my bathroom while I shower and it has exceeded my expectations. It is very loud, user friendly, and works off my current apple music subscription.

Fantastic small speaker. Gave it as a gift and the bass on it is pretty good for being a small speaker. I thought it would potentially have a small flatter sound but it’s got a pleasing sound

Easy to use. Especially if you have all Apple devices. The sound is amazing for its size and you can send sound from any Apple device to it. Thinking about getting another one.

Easy to set up. Great sound despite the size. Wish it was a cordless or cord-negative design. Intercom feature is nice although not utilized too much. Just purchased a second unit for surround sound

Bought two of them, at 199 and 185(open box). Sound good individually, great in stereo. Really solid bass for a small unit, won’t go incredibly loud, but plenty for most uses. Siri works pretty well, much better if you have Apple Music. One undersold feature is that because of the Omni characteristics and dsp, music doesn’t sound boxy(you can’t tell where it is coming from, just nicely distributed, kind of like some Linkwitz lxminis that I made some time ago)-really outstanding with orchestral music.

Five stars but realize these speakers have some limitations. They sound great but volume is somewhat limited. The value is good compared to the larger Apple Home Pods, but less clear when compared with other bluetooth speakers. ie Alexa. They work well with Apple music, but not always with the other streaming services. Check before buy to see if the one(s) you use will work. I wish the cords were detachable so when they wear out you could just buy a new cord. I haven't yet figured out how to use these with my iPad as well as my iPhone. I also have a Samsung Galaxy and haven't been able to figure out if that will work as well. As always the big question is how long with they last.

Great product from a small speaker. The footprint is very small. Works great with Siri. Could easily ask for weather updates. I currently placed it in my bathroom to listen to music getting ready.

I have a pair of the home pods so I decided to get a pair of the smaller ones. They have great sound and were very easy to set up. They take up less room and are nice looking on my end tables.

We have two HomePod mini's that we run in stereo with an Apple Tv. They sound excellent for their small size and setup with a breeze. However, they're incredibly buggy right now. When activating Siri via voice, sometimes the HomePods will completely hang and say they're having trouble connecting to the internet. Other times when trying to push audio to the HomePods from our devices it will hang, play out of one speaker or not play at all. We have to reset the devices multiple times a day. These issues might be due to the nature of running them as a stereo pair so if you're getting just one, you might be fine. However if you plan to get multiple to use in the same room, I'd say avoid them for now.

I currently own multiple Alexa devices and quite honestly the HomePod Mini surpasses Alexa in so many ways, especially when it comes to sound quality. The sound on this tiny speaker is, simply put, exceptional. With HomeKit devices that are compatible with Alexa as well, Siri has so far has executed 95% of my requests. With the same devices, Alexa only executes about 60% of my requests. And this thing also has voice recognition capability! Definitely worth the money in my opinion and will be looking to buy more in the future and transition out Alexa completely.

Amazing sound and it looks awesome! I am very pleased with the Mini Home Pod through Apple. It’s easy to navigate it’s functionality! My young daughter uses it to help her with homework, lol.

Overall great sound and east set up. This is definitely worth your time
