Customer Ratings & Reviews

For making its mark on the smart speaker market, Apple really nails sound quality over everything else. Great sound and clarity, the usual smart stuff is like most anyway. Worth it.

Sounds great for being so small. Easy to use and good range distance.

Love my HomePod mini. Great quality for the money.

Purchased as a gift for my mom and she loves it. Great sound and easy to use.

The Apple HomePod mini not only delivers surprisingly rich sound for its size. Seamless integration with Apple's ecosystem makes it a smart choice for those looking to enhance their home audio experience.

It's a nice speaker. However, my son and I were having a hard time connecting at first. Then when we finally connected my iPhone to it, my son started having trouble connecting his, so I had to disconnect and delete the Home App so my son could connect. Since the HomePod was going to be in his bedroom, I didn't bother to connect my phone to it anymore. Overall it does have a good sound, but the connection to devices it's hard (for us).

Very cute and useful. Plays pretty loud- sound quality is great, too!

The speaker is amazing! I put in my kitchen so I can listen to my music while cooking. Looking to add a few more throughout the home.

Apple instructions are vague, and it seemed for a while that I could only listen to iTunes on it. Don't know what I did differently, but now it works more like other smart speakers, I can stream my internet radio stations. The sound is nothing special, but that's par for a small speaker.

HomePod detects when a regular smoke alarm goes off (not a smart alarm), but does also detect with sound when smoke alarms trigger. Good sound. Allows for HomeKit to function with HomeKit Yale locks.

Compact size and amazing sound quality totally in love with this homepod mini

Sounds great. Simple design and compact. I use it everyday

Use it in my office. Great buy. Easy to use. Sound is very high quality.

This is easily the most useless and unsuccessful Apple product I’ve owned. It’s the first time I’ve felt genuinely undersatisfied with an Apple purchase. Apple markets HomePod as offering “seamless transfers,” but that only applies to music. You cannot transfer or use it for app-based calls like Zoom, Teams, or WhatsApp. A basic $30 Bluetooth speaker can handle those without issue. In that sense, this is objectively worse than a cheap speaker. Sound quality is not impressive either. It’s fine, but nothing special, and in my experience not better than an Amazon Echo. For the price, it’s overpriced and underwhelming. The behavior is also unreliable. It randomly starts playing music without any clear trigger, and when that happens, you often can’t even stop or control it properly from the phone. This has happened multiple times, and it feels unpredictable and buggy. Connection with a Mac is unstable. You cannot rely on it as a permanent external speaker. It disconnects, fails to reconnect, and generally does not behave like a normal audio device. Bottom line: this is not a smart speaker in any practical sense. It’s a very restricted music appliance with confusing limitations that Apple does not clearly disclose. Honestly, a $15 knockoff Bluetooth speaker would be more versatile and seamless for everyday use. Extremely disappointing.

I bought this for my son to use in the bathroom, speak sound is good and great size for a small room.

Got the Apple- Homepod mini just to try it out and compare it to Alexa. It does have very nice sound but doesn't seem to have all the options I get with Amazon's Alexa. Still exploring the options but so far Alexa is better by a lot

Perfect size and amazing sound. We like listening to forest sounds!

Sounds and looks great. Works great with iPhone, Mac, and Apple TV.

Awesome! Modem design and clear surround sound. I put it in kitchen as a station voice control for my whole place home nest.

excellent sound, and easy setup in a matter of a few minutes
