    If you have invested in apple products, then this little but large speaker is the one for you. The sound is great for such a small speaker, and with the new update, you can do so much more. Love how I can tell it to unlock my doors, turn on lights, turn down the ac, and ect. Great product with a lot of potential.

    Sound quality is good on the unit but I actually had to Google to figure out how to get it connected to my iMac. Good sound and deep bass. Ended up returning it just didn’t make any sense when I have my phone right there for Siri and my computer right there with built-in speakers to play the videos

    The sound from the HomePod is good....I just wish it was great. Yes, it is better than the Amazon device but 3 times the price. If you plan to use this as a hub for your smart home...you cannot set it to play music for an automated scene. Recently, Siri appears to be slowing down as well. Apple has a lot of work to do to catch up with Alexus.

    I've bought so many speakers that I can remembers: Bose Soundlink, Bang & Olufsen A1, Harman/Kardon Invoke to name a few. This speaker is the best. I just hope Apple allow playing Spotify using Spotify connect instead of AirPlay or Bluetooth. And the Bass is amazing.

    Yes I’m a fan boy. Yes I love apple. I also like nice things that work in general. This just happens to be one of those. It’s a premier product that - if you’re in the Apple ecosystem - is untouched. I have multiple soundlinks from Bose (love them) but this has the Apple Music thing down. If you can spare the 400 get one.

    Got it on a sale for $50 less. I’m fully invested in Apple HomeKit and this helps control everything. My kids use it more than me for the music capability but I like it as a hub for my smart devices. The sound is very good. I just wish it was cordless. Siri picks up on everything even while the music is playing!

    If you’re deep in the Apple ecosystem like I am this speaker is great for you. It can do all the basics that you need, Siri, play music, use Home devices, set alarms, etc. The sound is phenomenal. Definitely would recommend.

    I bought this as an open box item and saved quite a bit off the normal sales price. Speaker shipped on time and in as new condition. Go directly to YouTube to learn how to set up. It is very easy once you learn the secret. Great bass sound BTW. I liked it so much I bought 3 more

    Recently we decided to purchase the HomePod. Coming from the google home mini, this is heaven. The sound is so deep and rich, that any type of music is a delight. Also you can sync it with all your smart home devices and SIRI help you turn them on or off. Definitely a good purchase.

    Picked up two extra Home Pods while they were on sale for $249.00. I have a ton of smart switches and plugs throughout my home. Have added these throughout the home. They work great and pick up voices from a long range. Price was the issue at full price. Otherwise I would have given 5 for value.

    Great sound and functionality. Siri does a goos job with understanding all the people in the house. She even knows which one we are. I can tell her to play “my” playlist and she know who I am. Music plays great on this device.

    Got a great deal on this product. I was happily surprised at the sound quality of the HomePod. The full sound easily fills my small 1 BR apartment. Music, movies, gaming...it all sounds phenomenal and crystal clear. Awesome addition to my HomeKit as well.

    I bought a HomePod for my home office and use it everyday. The sound is fantastic and having Apple Music behind it gives me the best quality streaming music and the HomePod makes it sound as good as it can get. I ended up buying three more HomePods - one for my living room and two as gifts. I love the HomePod.

    After AirPods became my most used tech device in years, I figured I’d give the HomePod a chance. The Siri functionality is adequate, and will improve over time with updates. However, the sounds you can get right out of the box are insane. FAR above the quality of other smart speakers. Strong recommend for any Apple user.

    This is very cool if you can have it work along with any other Apple home devices. I have it linked to my tv, my lights, my door lock And Apple Music. It’s very nice to be able to just ask Siri to control everything!

    Got for my MacBook Pro 16. Is stunning in my office setup. My hearing and especially my comprehension is diminished as I age. I can honestly say that the technology in this speaker enhances my ability to comprehend talking programs as well as increasing my musical enjoyment.

    ... sounding smart speaker! The microphone for the Siri commands are near perfect. Some may say others are more “intelligent” but it provides all I need. HomeKit is a pleasure. No problems syncing as well as adding devices. Did I mention the sound lol

    I want to start by saying that I am a huge Apple product fan. I have been for years so when I saw this come out I was pumped. But now that I’ve had it for a while I hate it. Half the time it doesn’t connect to my internet, it turns on and Siri talks randomly with no “hey Siri” command. I’ll stream music from my IPhone to it and that constantly drops off. I will say that the audio sound when it works is phenomenal but paying $350 for a speaker is silly. Apple needs to work on making this thing better. I say stay away until it’s improved.
