    I really like the HomePod primarily because of the quality of the sound it provides and how well it is made. I also have an Echo device in the house and Alexa has more capabilities than Siri at this time but I am seeing encouraging news about future enhancements to the HomePod and some of the services I use. Apple has a lot of room for improvement on the capabilities of Siri via HomePod but it works well with my house's Hue lights and my iTunes library and being able to add things to my grocery list or reminders.

    The HomePod is amazing. It’s very loud with the 360 degree sound and the bass also helps. I’d recommend it to anyone

    The sound is nothing short of amazing. But the networking availability of this product is definitely not up to Apple standards or even a cheap Bluetooth standard. You can not use this unit anywhere except on your home network, and then it is very difficult to get set up and controlled. I travel 80% of the time for my job and wanted to use it in the hotels I stay in, and that’s not even close to reality. 80% of my life, this will be a brick. Will probably give it to my daughter and buy another type of Bluetooth speaker setup….very disappointing in Apple.

    I bought this to complete another HomePod that I already owned. They work great in pairs! I use my HomePods mostly to listen to music or the radio. The sound quality is excellent, on par with Sonos, and can get really loud. The integration with Apple products, such as iPhones and Macs, is seamless. I can AirPlay anything from my phone to listen on my HomePods. And the same is true for my Apple TV, if I want to use my HomePods as TV speakers. Get two if you want stereo sound!

    The sound of this speaker is really hard to beat. It has no alternate input, so it can only accept wireless input. Works great for any device capable of Airplay or Airplay2 connectivity.

    Good HomeKit Piece

    A very good product for people building a HomeKit automated home. Otherwise, a good but not great AirPlay 2 and Bluetooth speaker, and a little spendy for that alone. Add the Siri listening point and the HomeKit hub functions and it becomes a better deal.

    This was a gift my teenage niece- and she enjoys it. Perfect for her bedroom- although Amazon & Google speakers are far less $. We all use Apple/Mac products - but I think for the money it could have more features and not such a cheesy design. RIP Steve Jobs.

    Purchased this device for my friend who has Parkinson Disease and whose tremors made it extremely difficult for him to use his phone. Not only has it make it very easy to use his phone, but it has improved the experience of those with whom he talks on the phone. Moreover he loves the music and knowledge available thru Siri. It has really changed his attitude and improved the quality of his day to day life
