Customer Ratings & Reviews

Nice sound but this is not a fully matured product. I have had to call AppleCare more than 6 times because of problems such as music playing on my iPhone AND HomePod mini at the same time, transferring from iPhone to HomePod mini intermittently working, HomePod mini just stops playing in the middle of a song. I made sure AppleCare was doing screen sharing and I had the camera open so they can visually witness problems and they admitted what I’m reporting are real problems. I also did screen recordings of other issues and at Applecare’s request, I sent it to them but before they can go to engineering, they require I add new profiles and keep exact logs (dates, times, issues) every time something happens because they said “there’s millions of lines of code so engineering cannot find their own problems with complete detailed information and profile added”. AppleCare offered to replace my NEW HomePod mini with what they call “replacement stock” and when I asked if I would get a new replacement, AppleCare said it would probably be a rebuilt one and not a new one. I paid 100.00 (plus 15.00 for AppleCare) for a NEW HomePod mini and I don’t want a rebuilt replacement. I will not buy other’s as I planned to until this product’s problems are resolved.

Apples HomePod is really nice and has great sound, easy to use.

I was not sure how Apple would make the HomePod better, and yet they made it better and smaller. This little speaker is an improvement on the industry leading smart speaker. You will never be disappointed with this speaker. The best part, is that audio processing is performed on the speaker and not shared with your neighbors.

Great sound in a small package. Easy to set up and use.

This little smart speaker is far better than I expected. It is worth noting that my entire family is immersed in the Apple eco-system. That only enhances the functionality. Sound quality is much better than other speakers in a similar price range. Highs can get a bit “hiss-y” on some music. The average music track is awesome with great, rich sound.

Wasn't very impressed at all. It would have trouble connecting to my iPhone 12 Pro Max sometimes, was slow to respond to commands, and sound quality was good but not great. Without a touch screen or anything, I just don't see it being as useful as something like an Echo Show 5, which I also recently bought and use more.

Excellent sound and build quality. Siri can hear me over loud music and from other rooms in my home. Works very well with Apple Music. The unit itself feels heavy and very solid. Sleek design.

Surprise by the sound quality from this little speaker! This is the only speaker I use in the bedroom.

A great compliment to my HomePod. I use this mini in the bedroom and I have all the features of Siri on a HomePod in a smaller package. The sound is good, although not as good the original Home Pod, but very acceptable. Also doesn’t take too much space up on the night stand. Now I just need about 3 or 4 more for the other rooms in the house.

Answer.....NO! I love the quality sound and the richness of the bass! It was so easy to set-up. Just plug it in and place your Apple device close to the HomePod an enjoy your favorite tunes! The only complaint I have, is that you cannot link SiriusXM. Overall I rate the system a 5 however, I am giving a 4 because of the SiriusXM.

I love all apple products including home pod mini. I previously purchased two home pod minis one for my nieces graduation, and one for myself. I decided to get another mini to pair with my other mini plus my HomePod to get Surroundsound with my television sets. It became a game changer for me. Highly I highly recommend the HomePod mini.

This HomePod mini is great for asking Siri to add things to my shopping list or home automation tasks. The sound from this little speaker is way better than I expected. If you are in the Apple ecosystem and are looking for a HomeKit hub this speaker will fit the Bill!

Very easy to use and great sound. It connects to device easily.

Great for small room and for Apple ecosystem users. But one can get a better airplay speaker value from JBL Link among others for less money when on sale. I doubt the auto room calibration is going to make that much of an impact but still $99 isn’t bad for an Apple audio product

Sometimes I run into issues with this product. I’ll call for Siri on my phone and response will be very delayed on the pod. In general connecting is harder than it should be for new phones on the home app.

Nice sound. Great size and quality. I definitely recommend.

Has very good sound for such a small speaker but trying to work out how to set defaults and work in coordination with Apple TV, Apple Watch and iPhone. So many questions and things to try to figure out to make it work the way you would like.

This is my second HomePod mini. I use mine mainly for music. They are synced so that I can now enjoy my music in different rooms in my house. There’s a good chance that I may purchase another one or two in the future. FWIW, I have similar products from other companies. My HomePod minis are far and above the best, and are my favorites.

Good speaker, siri wont listne sometimes while in the shower

Awesome be product. Easy to setup and use. The sound is great.
