Customer Ratings & Reviews

Home pod connects through Bluetooth and uses Siri. Just like the “hey Alexa” home pod uses “hey Siri” and I like how I don’t always have to find my phone or manually do it. The sound is amazing. It is loud and really balanced.

This is our go to home speaker now. We have it in the kitchen and the sound quality is amazing. The only thing we're waiting on is for Apple to allow Spotify to stream natively on it. Right now, you can use your iphone and say "Play <song> on spotify on Homepod" and it will stream through your phone. But I would rather just talk directly to the homepod via Siri to say "play <song name>" and do it. It works this way ONLY if you pay for Apple Music. (Apple Music is okay but our family is pretty invested in Spotify so we don't want to switch over.) Highly recommended!

Great speaker and design is excellent but the purchase is for the sound and not the integrations. It definitely lacks integration with other services, but when you use this for sound alone it is worth the price.

Sound is amazing especially when you have 2 or more HomePods running in stereo mode via AirPlay 2, but even just one shakes the house. The bass is clean and mids and highs are really clean and crisp as well. Love what apple did here.

HomePods didn’t seem to be very popular but I don’t regret buying this. It sounds great and is really useful in our kitchen. It’s also nice since it plays well with my Apple TV and other Apple devices.

I absolutely LOVE the sound quality of the HomePod. I can hear it all over my house. Also, it can hear you say “hey Siri” even over the loudest volume. I use it so much, it’s so great to have instant access anytime verbally.

Excellent sound quality and I had zero problems setting it up and setting it as a stereo pair with my previous HomePod. Also works great with my Apple TV and I love the sleep timer

Very nice item. Sounds AWSOME and is super easy to hook up and install. So perfect to add with your iPhone. Does a lot of cool stuff and works great with other HomePods in the house.

I purchased my first HomePod when it was originally released. I was very impressed by its sound quality. The Siri functionality, although limited at first, has consistently been improved via software updates. I am thoroughly immersed in the Apple ecosystem thus its smart speaker was a logical choice for me. When I saw Best Buy’s $199 price, I didn’t hesitate to purchase an additional one. It works very well as a stereo pair with my original HomePod thus providing an even fuller, richer sound experience. If you already have additional Apple products, you can’t go wrong with this speaker.

Sounds great. Really handles the bass wonderfully. I’ve been using two of them in conjunction with my Apple TV to create surround sound and it works perfectly.

I’v had my first HomePod-Black back in the very first month of the official release. Until last month, I’v been using it everyday for music and automation, Siri works accurately when invoked. Quality of sound is “ Indiscussible” sound is clear and bass is amazing. Apple ecosystem provides smooth and piece of mind experience. AirPlay from any Apple devices can be streamed easily on HomePod and to have better sound experience “Stereo” you can add another speaker and link them together. This what I exactly did, two weeks ago I purchased my second speaker and create stereo pair which is amazingly blasted my audio experience. I bought it on sale for $199.99 which reasonable if I consider other brands.

The HomePod is an excellent small speaker. It’s not the best smart speaker but the sound quality is thoroughly enjoyable. I have slowly been replacing many of my Echos with HomePods as the budget and special pricing opportunities allow. I still maintain a few echos for the additional capabilities available with Alexa. One should always be cautious of first generation Apple products. The first Watch and iPad were both underpowered. The first iPhone was missing important features such as GPS and 3G connectivity. The HomePod’s first gen fault is being over-engineered. It’s remarkably advanced hardware that overshot the demands of the main market for smart speakers. This makes the HomePod an exceptional buy when on sale.

I am an APPLE die-hard but I never would have bought this if it wasn't on sale. The setup couldn't be easier. The sound blows the doors off of almost everything else. Great for FaceTime audio calls with family. There is no worthwhile home-assistant value though. It's laughable how far behind Apple is in the field.

I own 3 Homepods now and plan to pick up a few more to scatter around the house. With the latest updates to AppleTV, I use the Homepod so much more. I'll put on a movie while doing housework, and Airplay the audio from the movie to all the Homepods in the house. I do the same thing with music from my iPhone. I do have 1 Sonos Beam also included in the mix, but the Homepod sounds better than the Beam (it sounds shallow/like it's in a box) My only complaint is having so many smart home devices, streaming, and other wifi things, I can overload my WiFi/router. Need to upgrade that next.

HomePod was easy to set up and the sound is incredible. Bought the HomePod to automate my home and it just makes it much easier. No scrambling for my phone to turn things on or off. “Hey Siri“ makes it a breeze.

Mediocre smart speaker... AMAZING sound! If you want it for asking it complicated questions or even complex commands it sucks. This is a speaker first a smart assistant last. I bought these to connect to Apple TV as a home theater setup, it works great. I ask it to play music, ping my iPhone, pause/play what's on Apple TV or other minor things and it works great. The music out of this thing is incredible not one hint of distortion, sounds crisp, almost real like if I was there with the instruments. It's my favorite gadget in the house! I highly recommend if you want them for music and not for smart features.

The amount of sound this thing puts out is phenomenal. A single HomePod is perfect for a smaller room, like a bedroom. I highly recommend purchasing this item, especially when it’s on sale.

I put this speaker in my bedroom and it's so nice to have a useful speaker. I usually use it to control my HomeKit devices from my room and a sound machine when I sleep. The sound is amazing, the bass kicks, and it gets really loud. It's not the best smart assistant but it does what I wanted it to do. If you can get this on sale for 200 or even under (open box deal) then I would totally recommend it. I do want to buy more in the future to put it in nearly every room. It also pairs really fast. If you have other Apple products it fits well in the ecosystem.

The homepod produces the best sound I've ever heard come from a speaker the lows, mids, and highs are all spot on. The bass is perfectly tuned as well, perfect rumble with no distortion. And Siri is getting more intuitive with each update.

I saw the sale of 100.00 off and had to jump in and buy a second This one sounds as good as the first very easy setup just like magic and the room space is perfect. Works with my Apple TV unit
