Customer Ratings & Reviews

This speaker is not by any means the best, but does its job well. Pair them with another one and thats when it shines

Great speaker for the size. Simple but effective design. No integration issues, def recommend.

Purchased primarily to use as the smart hub in my living room (specifically for my front door lock). The smart hub functionality is great. Works well with my lock, Philips lights, and alarm system. Siri is super responsive, even while the speaker is playing music. Only reason I’m giving it 4 starts rather than 5 is that music sounds just okay on it. I know the speaker is small and will only do so much, but my JBL Flip 4 really sounds so much better. Nonetheless, I will be purchasing for other rooms to use as an intercom and play music throughout the house.

Love it. Has amazing sound, small, but very very mighty especially if your in the Apple eco system!

Works very well great sound. Nice design as always from apple.

Got this to match the other in our bedroom. Now we have surround sound rain sounds at night for the wife, and murder documentaries for me at night on the iPad.

I am surprised by the sound that comes out of these small speakers. You can fill a room, especially with two paired in stereo mode. Apple ecosystem integration is a must, outside of that, not much reason to purchase this. Myself and my family enjoy these enough to have justified three in the house.

Great sound for the cost, great service, nice portable size.,.works great!

I bought the HomePod based upon two criteria: audio fidelity and integration into the Apple ecosystem. The HomePod performs flawlessly in both categories. First, the HomePod integrates easily into the Apple ecosystem. It “plays nice” with two iPhones, an iPad, two Apple TV units, and Apple Music. Setup was a breeze; it was mostly “automatic” in that regard. I had read where others had some difficulty and the setup felt “cumbersome.” I did not share that experience. The HomePod works really well with Apple Music by itself, and with Apple Play on the iPhone, it will play other streaming services and will also play what’s in your music library. Note that this isn’t through Bluetooth, but through WiFi. I use both Siri and Alexa smart services (I also have an Amazon Echo). I find that both services work equally well for me. Admittedly, I don’t have a “smart home,” and my experience with such services is limited. But Siri gives the weather, sets alarms, plays the news, answers questions, etc. as well as Alexa, in my experience. Second, the sound from this little pod is freakin’ AWESOME! I’m a professional, classically-trained musician and audiophile. While not stereo, the sound stage seems deep and spacious. The bass response is fantastic without being muddy or overpowering. The kids are clear and concise. The highs are crisp without being crackly. Overall, a very well-balanced sound. I can only imagine setting two of these up as a stereo pair. My ‘Pod sits in my office, which is about 12’ x 14’ and it fills the room quite easily with music that is linear, smooth, warm and extremely clean — even at high volume. Since the HomePod “hears” the room and its onboard computer automatically adjusts the sound output accordingly for optimal blend and balance, The music is always well-placed and appropriate for the listening space. My musical tastes are quite eclectic, and the HomePod handles most styles with alacrity and capability. The orchestra sounds like you’re in the concert hall. Choirs are transparent and clear. Jazz is smooth and clear, but warm. Ambient and spa music that includes lots of nature sounds are faithfully reproduced. It will even handle the thump and drive of dance and chill tracks. The ‘Pod is surprisingly objective in its color; it doesn’t “favor” one style over another. That said, every speaker system has its inherent “sweet spot.” This one seems to favor ambient/jazz/fusion. The response seems fairly flat to my ear, without a particular EQ tweak in any direction. Since the iPhone has selectable EQ patterns, the ‘Pod will reflect those choices faithfully. The quality of build seems typical of Apple products: robust, refined, sleek, unobtrusive. Fit and finish are flawless. The controls are touchpad type, and they work well. However, the ‘Pod shines when it comes to voice recognition and vocal commands. It has, I believe, 7 microphones, and those ‘phones will hear you — even over loud music — and you don’t have to yell! I got the Space Grey. I can’t imagine the white staying clean. The power cord is fabric-wrapped and of an appropriate length to reach to an outlet without stretching and without coiling up on itself. My ‘Pod is situated about 3 feet from an outlet, on a small table, and the power cord drapes very naturally. Overall, the HomePod is sleek, unobtrusive, and sonically refined. A very capable piece of sound equipment that not only does not disappoint, but will delight the listener. I’m thoroughly impressed with the HomePod.

Didn't think I even needed this but mano man..how did I ever live without. Great for background music during dinner, cocktail parties...or just leaving it on for the dog when we leave ...without turning on the whole tv soundbar system...just ask Siri. Just ask Siri for anything..you can even make a phone call on it ..and so so much more. Get one and you will be asking yourself how did I ever live without this?

This speaker has fantastic sound quality for such a budget price. Intercom is my favorite feature

Love it - the sound is amazing and it’s so easy to use. The contactless pickup was perfect as well

Highly recommended. Bought this to use at my business while we work. It sounds great and is plenty loud enough to fill a room. We can turn it up to about 80% and jam out from time to time. Employees love it. I ended up adding a second HomePod Mini for stereo sound and that made the sound even better. Can't beat the price and the future proofing with Thread compatibility and the upcoming Matter smart-home protocol.

Perfect speaker for a desk or pair two for a stereo setup

Excellent sound, easy to set up, works seamlessly with hub for lights and all home products

High quality speaker…..the quality is perfect even the bass for the size of the speaker

Great sound, easy setup, and great response from siri

I love the mini HomePod. Which I owe one big too. Great sound. And quality

Love this small mighty speaker. Very good and syncs with all my apple products.

Great sound! Works really well with my iPhone! Small speaker that’s better than my old google home!
