Overview
- Fills the entire room with rich 360-degree audio that sounds amazing from every angle
- Boundary-pushing computational audio creates the full, detailed tones of a much larger speaker
- Place multiple HomePod mini speakers around the house for a connected sound system (note: requires multiple HomePod devices or AirPlay 2-compatible speakers)
- Pair two HomePod mini speakers together for immersive stereo sound
- Send intercom messages to every room (note: requires two or more HomePod speakers)
- Intercom also works with your other Apple devices, so you can send and receive messages through CarPlay while you're driving, on your AirPods during a workout, or with your Apple Watch when you're running errands
- Siri can recognise the voices of up to 6 different family members and give each one a personalised experience (note: multiuser features are available in English)
- If you have to head out, seamlessly hand off audio by bringing your iPhone close to HomePod mini
- Works effortlessly with your Apple devices, so you can pick up an incoming call from your iPhone, listen to music on your Mac, or upgrade your TV experience by taking the sound from your Apple TV to the next level

- Wrapped in a perfectly seamless mesh fabric that's virtually transparent to the sound passing through it
- Backlit touch surface on the top provides quick control

- Sounds Great. Works great. Looks Great.Reviewed by TheListener45 - 25 novembre 2020
For it's size, it sounds great. Better if you pair it with a second for stereo sound. If you are invested in Apple HomeKit and the Apple ecosystem, and use Siri for things like your daily update, calendar, reminders, shopping list, podcasts and especially Apple music - it works amazing. My wife and I are each able to use it and it's tailored to our individual accounts and our shared shopping list in reminders. We use it to control all our lights, cameras, doorbell, and garage door, as well as using it for multiple/different timers while cooking. Intercom feature is helpful too when we're on different floors in the house. Will most likely end up getting a few of these for various rooms to take advantage of multi-room music playback and smart home control. The white colour complements our home decor nicely. Other music and podcasts apps work with it through airplay, but it's best suited for those all in on Apple. I switched over to this from our google nest products for increased privacy and to better integrate with our iphones, watches and apple tv. It's not perfect, but overall a fantastic experience at a good price compared to the OG homepod that definitely has better sound, but does the same things.

Report - Great Sound, okay assistant.Reviewed by James - 12 septembre 2021
For context, I am deeply invested in the Apple ecosystem. iPhone, iPad, Mac, Original HomePod, Apple Watch etc.. The sound is phenomenal for a speaker this size. Good bass, crisps highs, solid mids, its sounds great. The design is incredible, the whole top is an led touch surface, it will light up when you activate Siri and when your playing music. The problem comes when you use Siri. Because of Apple’s approach to privacy, Siri is much more private compared to Google and Alexa, but with that come a “dumber” assistant. Siri doesn’t know nearly the amount of facts that the other two do. Voice recognition is pretty good, although you need to be sharing an Apple Home with each family member to work. If your in the Apple ecosystem (Apple Music, iCal, iMessage, Reminders) this is great. If you use Spotify or google calendar, I encourage you to have a look at Google offerings. Otherwise, this is a fantastic device.

Report - Great design, poor software.Reviewed by Steve - 27 avril 2021
The biggest selling feature for me was transferring audio to the speaker with a tap, using the U1 chip. Unfortunately these chips don’t work very well. I will have to physically hit my HomePod several times with my iPhone 12 before it realizes I’m trying to transfer audio. When it does transfer, if I’m using Apple Music it tells me I’m already listening to it on my phone And that I should upgrade my account.

Report - Great gift.Reviewed by Anonymous - 8 janvier 2021
Bought this as a Christmas gift for my mother. Arrived just in time to give it to her. From all the reviews online, Apple HomePod mini seems to be one of the most recommended for a native Cantonese speaker. Setting up the device to her phone was effortless and hassle-free. Got her using it in no time. She absolutely loves it.
