Amazing sound effortless to setup way better as a pair.

Very great sound quality and loud.. definitely recommend

I bought the speaker to pair with one I bought for a condo in Belize. But once I configured it to the pair in my living room it functioned as a middle center and fill in the gap between the pair. The sound is nothing short of awesome. I’m listening to old music and hearing it for the first time.

The speaker is fantastic, Siri works really well with home kit

We have been looking for a small sized smart speaker for a while but we were not super impressed with the other options out there. We heard one of these on display and were hooked instantly. The only downside is that we wish it could go a little bit louder at times. But aside from that the sound quality is fantastic.

Apple did a great job on the sound of this speaker. I just wish it was compatible with more devices. I use this and Alexa. Alexa for turning smart devices on and off and Apple for good sounds. And information. I wish the price would go down or they make a portable unit. It would be awesome

The Apple HomePod is amazing for its music listening experience, simple Siri tasks and controlling HomeKit items. I’m looking forward to the updates that will mature Siri. Siri capabilities are basic at best. Siri that lives within the iPhone is more advanced than the one that lives within the HomePod. But having Siri always listening within HomePod is so great. To start music so easily, or control HomeKit items on a whim, is very convenient. I’m happy with HomePod!

Sound quality is very good and setup is quick and easy.

Excellent product from Apple, makes it perfect for my ecosystem, good sound quality and works properly with Homekit, the stereo sound that it offers when playing movies through Apple TV is just great !! Homepod highly recommend

I bought two of these, and let me tell you, in stereo configuration they are absolutely incredible. I was amazed by one: I stood next to it and admired the quality and volume, and then stood 15' away, and it sounded as if it was the same volume and quality--unbelievable. I bought a second one the next day and couldn't be happier!

This is my fourth Apple HomePod, what can I say, its an apple product. It sounds great, looks great, but is on the pricey side. I bought all 4 for $199 each when on sale. Glad I did when I did, now apples discontinuing them. Wonderful speaker, it’s a sad day for me.

The homepod has a beautiful sound quality. And the way you could sync it to your phone is awesome.

Awesome speaker Siri is getting there She needs to do more things and be compatible with other devices and apps

After researching all the other tech savvy speakers out there, this one is my favorite. Not only did I purchase one but I definitely went back and bought a second one for our home. It is very helpful with helping me keep up to the minute on news and even weather and also helps with hands off help.This beauty can read my text back to me and all.

Absolutely incredible sound and extremely easy to use.

I bought several HomePods to replace Amazon Alexa’s in my home, due to privacy concerns. At first, I was pleasantly surprised by how little functionality I lost, with the help of some bridge apps, like Yonomi, Siri Shortcuts, and a piece of software I use called homebridge, I obtained off github. I was also surprised by how good they sound. I mean, they don’t sound anywhere near as good as a real home theater/hi-fi setup. But, for smart speakers, they’re leaps and bounds ahead of the others. Unfortunately, that’s where the love affair ends. I could absolutely care less about music. I don’t even have Apple Music installed on any of my iOS devices. I consider the Music to be malware. It takes over your device every chance it gets, often ignoring the last audio source listened to, in my case it’s mostly podcasts and audiobooks, to shove music down your throat. I DISLIKE this behavior and the HomePod is completely infected with Apple Music. If the HomePod misunderstands anything, its defaults to Apple Music and tries to play a song. Just now, I was watching a tv show and the actor said, “seriously?”, and the HomePod replied, “I don’t know who is speaking,” and then started playing music. Some random song that I didn’t care for. OMG! Then, this morning, I asked Siri, “how long will it take me to get to my next appointment?” Siri responded, “I can’t find that song,” then started playing some random music. I then asked, “how long will it take me to drive to my next appointment?” Siri responded, “traffic is light to John’s Barber shop in St Marys, so it will take about 45 minutes.” A) that is not the location of my appointment, B) I’ve never heard of or been to John’s Barber Shop and C) I don’t live in St Marys. I live in another town that is 45 minutes away. My appointment was literally 10 minutes from my house. Using the HomePod with the Apple TV is also frustrating. One of my Apple TV’s is named Theater Tv. I can say, “pause Theater tv,” and the video will pause. Then if I say, “play Theater tv,” Siri will respond, “I’m having trouble playing your music,” then about 30 seconds later, a random song will start playing. Another problem is when saying, “unpause Theater tv,” Siri will respond, “playing on multiple sources,” and will turn on and start playing music on multiple TVs throughout my home. OMG this is so annoying! Then I tried to set up some Siri Shortcuts. I’ve got a Logitech Harmony remote and I used Yonomi to bridge Siri and the Harmony with Siri Shortcuts. I created a shortcut to turn on my projector, another to trigger the 3D Movie scene, one to control the AC unit, and another to turn on the theater room. So, when I asked Siri to, “turn 3D movie on, “ or, “ turn AC on,” or, “turn Tv room” I either got told that Siri didn’t have the capability or that there was no such room. I had to chance the names of the Siri Shortcuts to just random words and phrases to get them to work. 3D Movie became Bigtime, Tv room became just the word Maple, and AC’s became Turn Cool Breeze On. Then, there are connectivity issues. Just about every morning, one of my HomePods, when given a command, will respond, “Something went wrong, please try again later.” Often, rebooting the HomePod, from the Home App, fixes the issue. But every few days, one of my HomePods will have to be deleted from the Home app and re-paired to get it working again. Moreover, I get, “device not responding,” responses when trying to operate one of my HomeKit devices, by Siri on my phone can communicate with the device without issue. How is it that Siri on the HomePod is so much more incompetent than Siri on the iPhone. They should be the same, right? But, they are not. I called Apple to see if I could get some help and the senior tech was snarky to me and basically told me I was doing it wrong (kind reminded me of Steve Jobs telling everyone that they were holding the iPhone 4 wrong) and that I had to learn a whole new vocabulary to use Siri and that I was going to continue to have to name things random words, and remember them all, because that’s just how Siri works. He also flat out refused to troubleshoot Siri Shortcuts....Wow, just wow. If you’re buying HomePods just for music, I guess they’re fine. But if you’re buying them for smart home control, be prepared to be severely disappointed. This is the most un-Apple like experience/product I’ve ever had. They’re literally like disappointment and frustration generating machines. There is no delight to be found here. Siri is unbelievably stupid and incompetent at home control. Since home control is my primary concern, my only concern, I can’t give the product more than one star.

Amazing Product. Amazing Sound. I have 2 of them. One on right side, One on left side. When watching Movies it feels like you are in a Movie Theater with unbelievable sound. Watching & Listening to basketball game you feel like you are in the arena watching the game live.

Easy to set up great quality sound with a good selection of Apple Music I can”t believe how much better the sound is we tried Montavoni, Andre Becelli, Bruce Springsteen& Bon Jovi all greens sound great! Since we are spending so much time at home this is pure entertainment

At the beginning I was kind of skeptical about spending $350 in a speaker, but was already so developed in the Apple ecosystem I knew it would have to be done. I am beyond satisfied with my purchase and it exceeds all my exceptstions across the board. Worth every penny and I love it. So I’m begging you to spend your 35,000 pennies as well!!

Use this all the time, sounds great. Bass is awesome!
