Customer Ratings & Reviews

Let's start with the good! They sound really great for the size. I've got two and I love listening to the same thing upstairs AND downstairs at the same time. Pretty cool! They're easy to connect and when they work well they work great. The downsides... They rely on a wifi connection. Our wifi cuts out when we're hosting multiple people at our house and that is EXACTLY when we WANT TO USE THEM. So they cut out constantly because they rely on wifi instead of just Bluetooth connectivity. The biggest con, is that they don't work with Spotify, which is where all of my girlfriends playlists are (I bought them for HER for Christmas). So when you want to control it using "Hey Siri" it starts playing apple music and the playlists are straight trash unless you go through and remake all of your playlists. So I created a playlist for them to play so I could set and forget for an afternoon. Except it kept playing from the album the songs were from instead of the order of the playlist. Apple Music is doing great things with Lossless audio but the playlists and radios are a DEAL BREAKER. They work great for having a timer that you can set and listen to from anywhere in the house. But honestly... We're probably going to return them. The smart home technology is just not there yet and having a reliable Bluetooth speaker that you can just bring around with you instead of having it plugged in all the time and needing wifi outweighs any of the smart tech advantages. They WOULD be so cool. If they worked how they were supposed to and worked with Spotify. I have everything Apple. iPad Pro 12.9 2020 with Magic Keyboard and Pencil (so does my gf.) Our business runs from the MacBook Pro M1 Max and M1 13''. Amazing technologies. I even have the AirPods Max, I'm a bonafide Apple sheep.... but these things suck.

Another excellent Apple product! The in-store Verizon representative was very courteous. She helped with the initial sale. While going over some products, we reviewed different functions and options. Overall very satisfied with my purchase. Thank you.

Amazing sound quality easy to use easy to set up!!

Pretty good sound for a speaker this size. Would have loved Bluetooth connectivity. I realized two speakers work drastically better than 1.

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

I already have a big HomePod and love it, this mini I just bought for my basement workshop does not disappoint. The sound is full and plenty to hear well at maximum volume. It won't blow you out of the room but it has a decent high volume and the sound is not lacking for anything. Speaking to have it take notes, set alarms, timers, add items to lists is a great feature you will actually use a lot! Good sound, small or not it's got good sound and I'm very pleased with it and setup is such a breeze with an iPad, or iPhone.

I have three HomePod minis in my house and love them. I wish I had more. Great sound for a little speaker but even better is the features that come with it. I love how well it integrates into the Apple ecosystem.

I love this little object, its a true companion and a distinctive style

Setup was straight-forward to use the HomePod Mini to stream YouTube Music. The sound is far richer and fills the space far more than you'd ever imagine something this compact would produce.

Love at first I was going to take it back because I didn’t know how to connect my devices it’s a hassle trying to reconnect it as well and it’s not as easy as my other Apple devices to connect so I was a little hesitant, but once I got it to connect baby it does just what I need it to do I love this and it’s not big and bulky and fits right on my nightstand for easy use

Looks great, easy to set up and use, and sounds great! Amazing to use for surround sound with AppleTV!

Amazing sound in this little package. Almost as good as its bigger sibling. Don't think of it as a competitor for Amazon and Google devices. Amazon's primary goal is to sell you stuff. Google's primary goal is to sell you (your data, that is). Their "assistants" are pretty good at what they do but the speakers don't sound all that great. Apple is about the music; they don't sell your data. Siri does what it's supposed to do. HomePod and HomePod mini are for music and they work beautifully and sound great.

The sound from this minute orange sphere is more than expected and it slides under your new M3 iMac if you are tight for desk space. Great for listening with your iPhone or with your Apple Music account. 2 thumbs up!

Grabbed three of these and have not been disappointed. I never would spring for the original HomePod due to the cost, but the price on these allowed me to have one in the den, living room, and the bedroom. When you have them all playing in sync it’s the easiest ‘whole home audio’ you can get. Handoff between my phone, Powerbeats pro headphones, and the mini isn’t as smooth as I like but it doesn’t take much to get it corrected when it does mess up. One of my best audio purchases in years.

If you are in to the Apple system, the mini is perfect for small rooms with plenty of available volume. While it cannot reproduce deep base, unlike it’s bigger brother it does not try to produce bass sounds that are out of it’s normal range, which is a plus. As long as you don’t crank it all the way up, the sound is very good given its price point. If you use IOT devices using Apple’s HomeKit, it can be your required hub and enable vast improvement in Bluetooth connected devices that use Thread.

This is great product. It’s louder than you think and can fill a room

Bought this to tie some home automation items together. Works great. Good sounding speaker for such a small package as well!

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.

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!

I came for a second home pod because I already have one the bigger one actually and they didn’t have it so I purchased the mini and it was a great purchase especially for the 100 dollar price tag it works in sync with the bigger HomePod and I use it as an intercom.
