    We are using this in the living room with the tv as a sound bar. The sound is so much better than the original output from the tv speaker

    All of my smart devices are staying reliably connected much better now. Even switching out a new router for an upgrade didn’t affect the IoT at home, I was reconnected in an instant after setup.

    Super bass sound and looks great too. I am also using it as our Home Hub for smart garage doors, lights, etc, with the Apple Home app and Siri control of those appliances. Can be annoying at first because it will just start to randomly play music if you turn it on. After you get used to how airplay works, it's much better to just send music to it by phone or computer. It can hear you pretty well, so you might want to keep it away from the TV, since people often say things that sound like hey siri.

    So. I have a yellow kitchen. What are the odds?? To say I love this product would be an understatement. I help they release even more colors, like red, green, and purple.

    I bought this to go with my regular Homepod, hoping that it would pair with it in stereo and it does! It works. you can play both with AppleTV. Awesome sound for a small speaker. Thinking of getting more,

    The only thing I don’t like about it is that it didn’t come with a matching (black in this case) usb-c wall plug. So I have to use my white usb-c wall plug from be another device. It looks tacky.

    Best Sound, but Regret Buying

    We purchased the Homepod because after comparing all of the speakers in the store several times the Homepod seemed to have the best sound out of all of them. We didn't care so much about voice control and knew that was a complaint, so we went with it because we just wanted the clearest sound. All in all, it honestly probably is only just slightly better than Bose and Sonos as far as the sound goes. As far as everything else goes it is AWFUL. I knew other reviews complained about Siri and voice control, but it is legitimately worthless. I can ask her what the weather is like that is where it ends. You can also ask her to play music in your iTunes, but sometimes it doesn't find the music and if you didn't purchase a song or album directly from iTunes than she will not find it which is pretty annoying because the majority of what we own in iTunes, a few hundred albums, was imported from our CD collection. Wouldn't be a problem if Siri/Homepod would just connect to Spotify like every other speaker, but Apple wants you to pay for an Apple Music subscription so they've purposely made it so Spotify can only work by manual input and not voice control. You can not ask Siri on Homepod a question beyond the weather..... it can tell me the temperature and if it's raining or not, don't ask anything else, it doesn't know, it can't look it up. So whatever, we're old, we lived in the time before AI and voice control so it wasn't as important of a feature for us, even though it would have been nice to have. The thing that makes me absolutely, completely regret buying this thing is that there is MAJOR audio lag. It is about 2 to 3 seconds, maybe even more, behind whatever device you're playing audio from. So you stop the music, it stops a few to several seconds later. You want to watch video on your tv or computer and play the audio through you're amazing sounding speaker? TOO BAD! They're mouth is going to be saying the word well before you hear it come out of the speaker. I wish we had just bought a Sonos or Bose system. We cool have had two speakers for the price of this hunk of junk and now we're so far out of the return period we're stuck with it. Do not buy it. Just don't. It's not worth the money, it's not worth the tiny fraction of better quality sound, don't, don't, don't.

    I really like this pod, white isn’t my first choice but, it still looks good. I picked up 2 for the kitchen and will eventually add on more for every room for the intercom function.

    Great Sound in a Little Package

    I happened to get this device when it was on sale for $199.99 and can say it was definitely worth it! I am always amazed by how much sound and the quality and clarity of it is from such a small device. It probably is worth full price for what you get because I’ve tested other devices in this category and price range and although some of them may have better smart features and integrate better with other smart devices you have in your home, none of them can touch the HomePods sound.
