This HomePod mini sits on my nightstand and makes a great replacement for an old alarm clock. I have Siri wake me with my favorite U2 song and then stream my favorite station, give me the weather report. Surprising great sound from such a small speaker.

I wanted something similar to Alexa but made by Apple. It’s okay but I may not keep it. I feel the cons outweighs the pros with this little pod. While the sound is quite loud for such a small little speaker, the glitches I’ve experienced with this pod makes me want to return it. I love the intercom feature and that I it works with the Apple Eco-System but I’ve noticed when I try to play music on my Apple TV in the living room, it plays on the pod in the bedroom instead. For it to stop playing I have to use the home app to pause the music on the pod, AirPlay the music from my phone to the Apple TV and sometimes it’ll work. Other times I have to unplug the pod. It’s really annoying and while it’s not too expensive, for the price it shouldn’t be so glitchy. Music will randomly stop playing when it chooses too and half the time “Hey Siri” doesn’t even work.

Great sound for a speaker this size! Adding words because I have a minimum character count like this is grade school.

I’ve always been an Apple girl and I love the mini size for more compactness. It does exactly what I need it to as an entertainment piece.

Amazing compact assistant. I have a Alex dot and this by far out does it in every competition. The bass when playing music is very good for the size. A little pricey but you won’t regret it

We have two of the mini's and two of the full HomePods (now discontinued). For teh size, the Mini's sound great, but definitely not as strong as the full HomePod. My biggest issue with the Mini is just max volume...they don't go as loud as I would prefer. Overall sound quality is still great though.

I am so very pleased with my purchase of my Apple - HomePod mini. TThis small speaker has a lot of punch and other features I am still discovering. I would not have a problem recommending this item for purchase to both my friends and family.

I wish I had more rooms in my house so I could have one or two more. The regular size version has a much better sound but these fill in the gaps and it’s useful to use in my kitchen when I’m cooking for Siri making my timers go

Integrates Siri into your home in a beautiful form factor packed with amazing sound. I was pleasantly surprised by HomePod’s ability to spread music throughout the room, creating a sense of sound coming from around the room. Set up was incredibly simple using your iPhone to seamlessly share your home network details and adding to your Apple Home app. I was amazed at how well Siri could detect my voice commands from two rooms away. No need to have an Alexa device in every room! Well worth the investment.

Great sound quality for such a small speaker I highly recommend it bought on sale better yet!

The sound qualify is amazing for such a small speaker. It fits right in with the regular HomePod. I almost can’t tell the difference between them. The handoff function is pretty cool too. I recommend these and have bought a number of them as gifts.

Bought two of these to make a quick stereo speaker setup for a bedroom and was blown away by the soundstage these are able to provide even when the speakers are on the rear nightstands! It was a bit of a pain getting them to properly connect to an AppleTV due to a weird iCloud issue, but now that they are working right, they’re perfect! The 2 biggest things for me were the alarm feature (so it’s louder than my phone) and the intercom feature (girlfriend can walkie-talkie like the Apple Watch) as I am a DEEP sleeper.

I bought another Homepod mini since Apple has made it possible to select the Mini’s as the main speakers. It sounds great although you will have to reset the speakers by unplugging them so the volume setting corrects.

I bought 4 at one time to set up as stereo pairs in two different rooms. The setup was easy. The sound is great. They work well with each of the Apple TVs they share a room with. My issue is how frequently they disconnect from WiFi. I have to restart the pairs once or twice a week. Each time I use my Apple TV 4k I have to go to the audio setting to have the sound come out of the speakers as well as the TV. Siri is not as "smart" as Alexa or Google which was expected prior to purchase. I purchased Homepod because I am so invested in the Apple ecosystem that it just seemed a natural addition. Outside the nuances, they perform exactly how I expected.

I have mostly amazon products in my home, and wanted to start looking for alternatives to playing my music on those devices, as they were starting to fail me, and I am an apple user. However, this homepod mini wasn't what I expected. The overall sound is cool, but it feels like an over priced wireless speaker. The features don't justify the price, so for now I'm sticking with the ability to air play to the amazon devices. Can't see spending more on a full size homepod based on what I've experienced so far.

Awesome Smart speaker... I had to wait a bit but it was worth it. All of the things you see online about it are true and it is a powerful little HomePod (size of softball). I might even get another one later in the future but having one for now is plenty...

perfect and connects so easily. i mainly use it in my bathroom for showering. 100% recommend. kinda wish it connected to alexa tho.

Great sound from a small speaker. Setup was a breeze too!

Great little speaker, but it is limited. Only works in the Apple echo system. If you have all Apple devices, then you are good. If you pair two of them for your Mac or Apple TV they sound even better. Wish Apple allow these to work with other devices.

I read all the "'hey Siri', is not Alexa or Google" and that is alright, I can look up things too on the internet, I'm not lazy, but the Apple Homepod is the best in this speaker class and beyond. The sound is the best, better than Bose or any other brand. I bought two and set it up as stereo speakers. Bass to Treble is beautiful and well balanced. You do feel the Bass but it's not overpowering. The sound actually feels like a 3D sound not a surround sound. I bet in the near future, they will be able to incorporate that surround sound with having multiple Homepods configuring with one another about distance and sound levels. You will love this Homepod. "hey Siri" will evolve.
