Customer Ratings & Reviews

Its been almost 11 months that I have purchased this amazing tech from Apple and am totally content with the product and its features. Me being in Apple ecosystem, this complements rest of the Apple devices. Right from morning songs to controlling devices, this operates flawlessly as expected. The Mini came in well packaged and was an experience to open the package from Apple. Once opened and powered up, the setup was very easy, if one has an Apple ID. The apple id can be tagged to the Mini by scanning the top of the Mini and things get synced up easily. There are multiple uses of Mini. Mini can be configured first using the Home app from Apple, where it is considered as a Hub. Once configured, it can be activated by saying "Hey Siri" followed by your instructions. From using it as a hub in Home app to as a Bluetooth speaker, it works like a charm. This being a good speaker, gives amazing music output. With most recent updates, it also has lossless sound, but I am eagerly waiting for spatial sound to be played using iPhone on Mini. All in all, this is the best Apple device that I use at my house to control other gadgets and also use it as a speaker.

Well designed. Simple to setup. Nice to be able to sync multiple ones throughout the house.

Almost perfect. The size is great. The audio quality is great. Controlling it with the iPhone is a little finicky in the sense that it’ll sometimes disconnect from the phone and just start playing random music similar to what you were listening to. Also it would have been nice if the cord was detachable. Plus using the fat power bricks Apple gives kind of sucks.

If you are part of the Apple ecosystem and use Apple Music, just buy it now. It’s powerful, it’s small, it’s classy. I got four. Intercom feature is actually my favorite part!! Only complaint: white plug comes with the space gray HomePod, which is an unusual design misstep on apple’s part (meaning if the plug is visible, you’ll have to get a black adapter so it matches).

Small but mighty. We paried two minis for the bedroom Apple TV and they’ve been great. Great sound for how small they are. They do not support Dolb Atmos though as a stereo pair but that’s okay they still do a really good job. Not at deep of bass as the regular HomePods but they get the job done. Also both bedroom minis were the out of the box for a 20 dollar discount and still worth it.

Sleek design, great sound. Easy to use with multiple family members.

Works great. ~ Some small setup issue but resolved it fairly quick. Just be sure to have apple-ID information complete & be sure the smart speaker isn’t sitting on or near home stereo speakers or high power devices like a home theater receiver. This way it receives an undisturbed signal from the home WiFi. A bookshelf or uncluttered nightstand is a good choice. ~ Don’t expect crazy loud volume of music from this unit. It can fill tiny/small rooms just beautifully, but for large open rooms will require an additional speaker for more a enjoyable music experience. I feel this size of this smart speaker is best suited for dorms or personal spaces. It’s larger companion is best suited for the larger/open spaces such as big living rooms. ~ Siri responds well, as long your internet connection is strong. Just be sure to pay attention yourself for Siri’s lights or Siri’s audio u’huh response. ~ I myself have been enjoying mine mainly as a low wattage sleep sounds speaker & occasional small music list listening. (In use for at least 10-hours dally, if not longer.) Before, I used a low watt surround sound system. But it still used too much electricity for me to be comfortable with. But this unit is perfect. When the speaker is asleep, it’s power consumption is almost nothing. That makes me happy as well.

Because I use a lot of Apple products I decided to give this one a try as well. The sound is good. Just as good as my little portable Bose speaker. I can use it with my Apple TV. I can just say “Hey Siri, turn on TV” and it works. It is also used to turn on lights in my room. The one con is it sometimes doesn’t work either it doesn’t understand you or whatever. That can be annoying. My backup, sorry Apple, uhm is Alexa. Price was a little high.

For its size the sound is amazing. The question is the price. For this price you can get a full size echo which is gonna pack more punch. But the mini still has some tricks up its sleeve. It works great with apple TV and supplements the sound from my HomePods helping me hear voices better when I watch TV.

I purchased this to get better volume in multiple places in my house. The sound is incredible!! Definitely glad I made this purchase. I also ordered another large pod to increase even more. Apple products are superior to any other brand.

For such a small device, the sound quality is excellent. And, it is easy to move from room to room. So convenient. Its ease of set-up and use is excellent, as well.

Bought this to replace the other female voice assistant. The sound quality is much superior and of course works seamlessly with my iPhone. It would be nice to have some type of small display on the unit.

Sounds amazing and very interactive with Apple TV and smart appliances

Situation I found myself in last year: Alexa had just gotten dumb. I mean DUMB. Moreover, no amount of opt out settings could stop the unsolicited suggestions that I really did not want to hear about. Alexa integration with Apple Music was also poor. So for the simple purpose of controlling g music, smart home devices and setting kitchen timers, it just made sense to get HomePods. Siri is still very far from being a great digital assistant but for simple voice control, she gets the job done painlessly if you’re home tech is Apple centric.

The color is cool, easy to use sound is good ……..

Sound is great, idk why it took me some times to get it to connect to my phone (meaning to send text, or transfer call), but after I rebooted my phone it work great. Just make sure it’s on the same connection. All in all luv it and works great to use with all my other apple products, especially the tv if you want that digital sound

I love that it’s super small so it can fit anywhere. even though it is small it can fill an entire room. i love to play music and i don’t have to put it very loud to get it to fill the room. the audio quality is great!

I put off getting into the smart home stuff for a long time but got on board once these HomePod Minis came out. I’ve got five spread throughout the house and for the size they’ve got excellent sound quality. Syncing audio across rooms works well. Setup is super easy as long as your in the apple ecosystem and have an iPhone. The only downside I’ve ran into is cleaning the mesh fabric. I haven’t found a good way to do this yet.

My first smart speaker. I’m one of those “old people” trying to keep up with technology. Easy setup. Good sound. I’m just scratching the surface of what it can do, but so far, so good. I’ve added my tv and several smart plugs and lightbulbs and am looking forward to maximizing the features as I learn more about its capabilities.

I use the iPad mini as part of a Smart Home system. It is really worth the money and the time it takes to set it up! It’s great to be able to create patterns such as having your doors lock at a certain time of night or having the lights come on outside just before you get home or even being able to have your doors locked and unlock When a contractor comes to the house or when you get home! This little device also works as a great speaker with wonderful quality
