    Easy to setup with all apple devices. Make sure wifi is strong for there are times it skips when streaming. Not like a typical bluetooth speaker, needs to have wifi. Other than that, great quality speaker and great siri integration.

    The sound is amazing for such a small smart speaker. I thought Moving from an echo/Alexa smart home to a HomeKit/Siri would be a difficult transition, but this made it easy. I am an apple fanboy though so this review may be biased

    It super easy to use, I got 3 of them at the house and they connect to each other with no problem, I can listen to the same song all over the house or I can have a different song play in each one of them.

    As a smart speaker it's slightly underwhelming. the best advantage to the homepod is that it adds room-aware functionality to homekit commands - that is, 'turn off the lights' will work to turn off the room that homepod is in, without asking you which room. with a bunch of these around the home, homekit becomes extremely useful without having to be overly descriptive with each command.

    I love this little thing. Although I use it mostly for music it really comes in hand. The mic is incredible. The volume of music can be on max but Siri still responds. Great piece of tech. I have one so far but I plan on getting more.

    Apple has done amazing job with privacy and the integration of my current ecosystem of an all apple household. Love that I can turn my tv on and off with my Apple TV. My favorite feature is the intercom.

    Very, Very Happy with This Purchase

    I bought this for a very specific purpose: to enable an elderly person with cognitive difficulties to listen to the classical music she loves. When it’s paired with her iPad and Apple Music, all she has to do is say, “Hey, Siri, play Beethoven,” and it does. It also happens to be beautifully designed and deliver remarkably good sound quality for something so small, but that doesn’t really matter in this case. What does matter is that, as Apple used to say in its advertising, it just works. And that makes it well worth the admittedly high price.

    The sound out of this is very surprising in a good way. I bought 2 for my kids’ rooms and they really love them. Definitely great quality and perfect for them to have dance parties in their rooms. Would absolutely recommend.

    The Apple Homepod has excellent sound. I’m not a speaker expert but the sound on this speaker is great! You do need to place it in a good spot to get the best sound (not obstructed by too many things on a counter or shelf). I got it on sale for $200 and definitely worth it. I also like that they don’t make money off of my voice commands, unlike other speakers... Also very easy to install. Literally plug it and my iPhone detected it automatically.

    Good sound quality, but disappointed that I cannot stream my SiriusXM subscription directly from the internet. While I can send music via Bluetooth to the device from my iPhone, I can only stream Apple Music directly from the internet.

    These are pretty nice setups. I purchased four to replace two first generation HomePods. I like that the Mini’s can be paired into stereo mode, but I’m disappointed that Bluetooth isn’t available as a connection option. ITT seems if ever a device would benefit from Bluetooth streaming, it would be the Mini.

    I really like my Homepod minis and plan to buy more for the house. I think the sound is great. I love being able to create a stereo pair with them and use with an Apple TV. I find it a bit annoying that I can't use them as the default sound output like a pair of Homepods. Get us that and its 5 stars.

    I wanted to try a home speaker. I decided to go with the mini HomePod since I have Apple products. Setup is easy and the sound is better than I expected for its size. If you looking for a more robust sound then this is not it.

    This little guys works great! Lots of sound. We also have the regular HomePod although it does not get as bassy it is very clear. Also it picks up Siri commands easily so the mics works great. Great addition to our HomeKit set up.

    I was blown away by this little speaker, and I used to be part owner of a recording studio in L.A. I own three HomePods (3x the price), and these little guys are almost as good. Don't hesitate if you're thinking of buying a couple!

    Being a Stereo buff in my life, I bought 2 of these when they showed up on Sale. No sense in buying just one, in my opinion. They pair easily and they just work like they should. I don't ask much of my "toys" like many do, so there may be things that don't work for others, but I LOVE the sound and the volume is never too high, but always ultra clear and well defined. If you just want excellent sound without trying to entertain the neighbors, this is a beautiful sounding speaker. As with all things Apple, easy to set up, easy to operate. It Just Works
