Customer Ratings & Reviews

The HomePod does everything I'd hoped for, and more. The sound is simply amazing, and the Siri interface controls my numerous "Smart Home" devices with ease. Set up was a snap. "Hey Siri, Is my garage door closed?" integrated so easily with the Insignia Garage Door kit. It listens... and listens well. "Hey Siri, set a timer for 35 minutes." "Hey Siri, how many teaspoons in a cup?" Coupled with Apple Music, any song or group that comes to mind is brought to life. I can't say enough good things about it, except I'm not quite sure how I got along without it before!

The Apple HomePod produces the best sound that I found in a smart speaker. It is very intuitive and easy to set up. The design is excellent. I am impressed with the premium quality audio.

I was hopeful the price would come down. I patiently waited and it did. I own an Apple TV and a Roku. when you listen to music with the HomePod, the sound is amazing. I’m working on getting better speakers for my AVR. The set up I have right now sounds great when you’re watching a movie. Not so much for music alone. Saving up for better quality speakers. The only con I have to say is the electrical cord is a little short. You can’t place it far from a wall without an extension cord. The best thing I like is it doesn’t try to sell you anything. Oh yeah, the bass from this little cylinder HomePod surprised me. Amazing. Siri fun to have. Gotta get used to talking to it so it’s a learning curve. I’m thinking of getting one more to go stereo with it. Maybe at Christmas time.

HomePod is the best smart speaker! Great sound with good amount of bass and it’s pretty loud. Easy to set up. Overall great speaker. Purchased at a good price thanks Best Buy!

This Apple HomePod is excellent! I’m in love with it. Amazing sound, great quality and compact size and sleek design, as everything that comes from Apple. I highly recommend this product.

I recently purchased the Space Gray HomePod after thinking about it for a few weeks, and finally pulled the trigger. I'm glad I did. Since I have many other Apple products, it was a no brainer. Even though it doesn't do as much as other smart assistants at the moment, I really think that it will in the future, with more HomeKit enabled devices and once AirPlay2 rolls out. This speaker really sounds great, and can go much louder than most people will even play it. But even at high volumes, it still sounds great with no distortion. Highly recommend for those that are already heavily entrenched within the Apple ecosystem.

Wow wow wow great sound. Easy to set up and Siri listens well even if you have full volume and you are across the room! No need to shout, just speak and ask Siri for whatever you need.

These speakers sound excellent. I EQ my music so I can get the sound I want but this speaker sounds good all by itself. I listen to most of my music out on the deck and this speaker sounds as good loud as it does low. It’s something I didn’t think about before but sometimes I want great music at a low volume when I’m talking to someone and sometimes I want great music at high volumes, this speaker can do both. At low volume simply EQ your music to whatever genre you prefer and it can sound full at low volume. Can’t say enough good things about this speaker. Cons: it has to be plugged in which might be a negative for some people but not me.

Sound quality is shockingly great but it’s what you’d expect from Apple. The device is much bigger than you would think. Siri isn’t awesome by any means but she is still evolving and so will the speaker that’s the great thing about Apple. Definitely try to get this on sale if you can cuz they are not cheap. That is probably the only negative thing I could say about it is the price Apple tends not to discount their products much more than $50 but on the flip side you no that you aren’t paying for a poorly engineered product either.

Works very well with all three people in household. After getting it set up it recognized all three of use when speaking. I have three networks on different bands and it chose the 2.4ghz band when setting it up. I had my phone on the 5ghz band and the hand off would not work. Be sure to have phone on the same band/network. When setting it up be sure to choose which network band you want cause the only way to change it is a complete reset. Sound is very clear and good clear bass for its size. It will pick up the hey siri comand from another room with a normal low voice with music playing loud. Use the command (Set volume to 50%) to change or set volume. Hope this helps!!

I listened to these play in the store, and decided to buy two for my family room. I know speakers can sound a lot different once you get them set up in your house. I took them home, powered them up, went through the setup options and paired them as a stereo pair. The sound really good. I did a sound comparison between the HomePods and my Bose Soundtouch 30's. The sound is pretty equal. I'm selling off my Bose. The setup up procedure is pretty simple. I also have an Apple TV. I can stream sound from the Apple Tv to my HomePods.

I own smart speakers from the other two major companies but wanted to get a Homepod to compare all three. I wanted until it went on sale as I did not think it was worth the everyday price. When it comes to music and audio this be by far the best on the market. The sound is excellent and the bass is a lot better than I could of imagined. When it comes to asking it do searches, turn on the lights (Hue) and other things it is not really good. It tells me the lights are not available all the time, I don't know that one, or something else. All of the other devices not issue. I get annoyed if my phone/ipad is closer than the Homepod the music will stream for the that device. I have to get closer to the Homepod of make sure all other devices are locked. I do like the Homepod but if you not into listening to music or podcast I really can't see a reason to get one.

This isn't your normal smart speaker. Yes I'm an avid Apple fan so it only made since to get an Apple speaker. I only use Apple music too so this only made since to buy an Apple product. Setup was easy and especially using HomeKit has made it even easier while away from the house. The sound quality is superb! Just enough bass and the tweeters get the job done. I see a lot of reviews that talk about Siri and it not 100% but I don't use Siri anyways so this didn't distract me to buy. I'll be purchasing another one soon. Best speaker I have ever own and totally worth the money with using it as more than a speaker but also home security while away.

This speaker packs a punch like no other speaker I’ve owned. I’m no audiophile, but I definitely notice deeper bass, and more details in songs than my sound bar. I may get a second one down the road to see how good the stereo pairing feature is. I like that airplay allows other iPhones in my household to play sounds from other apps besides Apple Music. It was a very steep learning curve to figure out how to figure out the airplay menu on the phone, but I eventually figured it out. My girlfriend likes to play the Calm app on it. I’m good with just playing songs on Apple Music through Siri. All in all it was a great purchase.

As someone who has used Amazon devices for years now, I've had my fair share of mishaps with Alexa so I decided to fork out the extra money for a HomePod. Alexa wouldn't always hear me, even when the room was silent, or she would, but wouldn't complete my request (play music, turn on lights, etc.), but Siri hasn't had nearly as many issues. I was lucky enough to find this on sale for $200 and since I have several other Apple products, it works seamlessly with their ecosystem, just as you would suspect. I think it sounds great, but I personally wouldn't pay more that $250 for it, so try to find it on sale!

if you're looking for a powered speaker & have an iOS device, look no further! This has amazing sound in a small package and super easy to use!

I'm a person who doesn't use a smart light, a smart home electronics so to me the speaker aspect of it is really worth it. The HomePod is definitely one of the best purchases I've made this year. It has such an outstanding sound quality with just one in the room. I did a test to see how loud this speaker is so I put it on 75% volume, closed my bedroom and walked around the house and I could still hear it from upstair and downstairs. The con with this device is it has difficulty recognizing classical music. Siri just butchers some of the classical and when you try to repeat it in the way Siri does, it won't be able to play that piece of music so you have to manually play the song in via iTunes or from your Apple device.

Integrates Siri into your home in a beautiful form factor packed with amazing sound. I was pleasantly surprised by HomePod’s ability to spread music throughout the room, creating a sense of sound coming from around the room. Set up was incredibly simple using your iPhone to seamlessly share your home network details and adding to your Apple Home app. I was amazed at how well Siri could detect my voice commands from two rooms away. No need to have an Alexa device in every room! Well worth the investment.

Love how loud this speaker can get without ending up sounding distorted and being able to use Siri without needing your phone all of the time is a plus as well.

We use this ALL the time. We have it at home in the living room. The sound is amazing. I can see why people buy more than one if you have a large home and want the sound throughout the house. We use it with our phones, for the TV sometimes, or just using Siri. It's great because as questions arise at home, we yell out to ask Siri the answer without a concern of where our phones might be. The sound quality is very impressive and it is so small you could put it just about anywhere (where there is a plug).
