    Great in a small space. Would recommend getting 2 if you plan on using them with a TV. They don't distort at high volume but are lacking in the base. Overall a great value compared to the larger Homepod.

    Excellent sound quality and I had zero problems setting it up and setting it as a stereo pair with my previous HomePod. Also works great with my Apple TV and I love the sleep timer

    Incredible sound for its size. Very easy to use. Best speaker I got so far (and I also have bang and Olufsen products) Only issue : having a Apple Music subscription is mandatory if you want to use the voice recognition.

    Very nice item. Sounds AWSOME and is super easy to hook up and install. So perfect to add with your iPhone. Does a lot of cool stuff and works great with other HomePods in the house.

    The amount of sound this thing puts out is phenomenal. A single HomePod is perfect for a smaller room, like a bedroom. I highly recommend purchasing this item, especially when it’s on sale.

    I’m a huge fan of Apple, so it’s. I surprise that I like my HomePod. It’s a wonderful addition to my setup, and it makes controlling my smart home devices much easier. Siri can hear me much more easily using the HomePod than she can using my phone or watch. I’m a lazy lazy man, and I hate light switches. I just want to tell someone to turn off the lights for me, and since my wife is just as lazy as I am, Siri is the best. I also use it as the sound for my Apple TV. I don’t have a sound bar or anything, and the TV speakers are not the best, but with this item, the sound is much more full and more immersive. It’s not as good as my home theater setup I have downstairs, but for a bedroom, it’s great. Now I just need a second one, to link them in a stereo setup.

    I love Siri and all of the Apple ecosystem, these little HomePods don’t pack the punch that the larger ones did but for rooms that need a voice assistant and not big sound… these are perfect. Especially when paired.

    It’s a fancy little speaker that can sync to your phone and other Apple devices. Siri falls short on what it can handle compared to Alexa or Google. Unless you have an Apple TV to operate as a hub for HomeKit devices, I don’t think it’s worth the purchase.

    I love this speaker and for its size the sound is awesome! I know it’s not high fidelity but if you’re in the Apple ecosystem then they’re a great addition. This was my 2nd speaker, I have one on my first floor and one on my second floor and I’ve been amazed on how well the microphones works for voice commands my lights are automated and the speaker picks up the commands even when I’m in another room. Also from what I know your privacy is much better off than other products and I’m willing to pay extra for that. Just hope it gets smarter in the future.

    I purchased the Homepod to replace my Denon receiver and bookshelf speakers. The sound quality and compact size of the Homepod is amazing. It's sound better than my old equipment and takes up a fraction of the space.

    Great little speaker to extend my music experience from the living room into my bedrooms. Best part is how easily they connect to my main HomePods and create a whole-house listening experience.

    HomePod speakers are a little different than your typical wireless speakers. They use WiFi, not Bluetooth for transmitting sound. While WiFi has the bandwidth needed to transmit all of the music, I wish that using Bluetooth was an option. I bought a pair of HomePods as I wanted full stereo sound. In this case, two HomePods are at least three times better than a single one. In my opinion, I've never heard speakers of this size that have such deep, full bass. The problem is Apple's software support for HomePods with AirPlay. They work well with iTunes and independently using Siri, but no other Mac software supports HomePod as a stereo pair. That means that no Safari-based music can use them. When Apple updates Mac OS to work with stereo HomePods, I would probably give the product five stars.
