I’ve been using the HomePod (2nd gen) for a while and it’s easily the best sounding smart speaker I’ve owned. The audio is rich and clear, the bass is surprisingly deep for the size, and it fills a room without sounding muddy at higher volume. Spatial Audio tracks sound especially good. Setup was basically instant with an iPhone, and the whole Apple ecosystem integration The built-in room sensing also seems to make a real difference depending on where you place it. You can play Spotify, Apple Music, or any app to let you share the audio. Downsides: it’s not cheap, and Siri still isn’t as flexible as Alexa or Google for random questions. But if you mostly care about sound quality and you’re already in the Apple ecosystem, this speaker is 100% worth it. To get access you have to be on the same WiFi

My family and I recently upgraded to an Apple HomePod. This device is very well built, having a sleek design and weight to it. The accessibility is convenient. Once connected to network, you can select commands on iPhone or by voice. We enjoy listening to music, so that has been the biggest feature thus far. I also have used it for a timer and answered a phone call. Loving it so far!

Bought 2 of these to use as a sound bar for a projector setup in my work apartment. The sound is super amazing and exactly the quality that would expect from Apple. Delivery was super fast and well received.

Upgraded from the mini to this beast and man what a difference it makes! The 5 speakers in this thing completely fills my garage with equal sound.

If you use Apple products, you can’t go wrong with this. It works flawlessly with all of my other Apple devices and sounds great. Thinking about getting a second one to pair with it.

Great sound! Very impressed by the responsiveness and sound of this product. Highly recommend!

Set them up as a stereo pair. You will hear subtle nuances in tracks That you never knew existed. Hear “missing” music that never has seen the light of day in my old Sonos stereo pair. Game changer. Nothing comes close to Apple Products. Ever. In this price change

I bought two of these for stereo sound for my Apple TV and also because I have a lot of Apple devices. It is amazing when it works. The experience is ruined somewhat by Airplay because of how unstable it is for streaming Spotify. Note that at the time of writing, Spotify isn't natively supported but can still be played with an Airplay handoff. Apple Music is perfect though so if you don't use Spotify, you are well off then.

The HomePod does a lot of things very well. The soundstage is very good and the Siri voice-activated features are really handy. It isn't quite the sound of the old Bose speaker I had, but it is just as good in its own way, depending on the music. Overall, a good value, especially if you are already using Apple products such as the iPhone

It is stuck on configuring.
