  • Looks great, Sound is impressive, Reasonably price
  • Can't use Siri voice commands with Spotify, Limited to Apple's own apps, Siri still isn't as capable as Google Assistant
  • "Unfortunately, if you primarily use Google services and Spotify like myself, much of the magic of Apple's HomePod mini is lost"...

  • Surprisingly nice sound for the size, Design is very pretty, looking more like furniture than a speaker, Can be paired in stereo, and works wonders when it does, Love how you can throw music from an iPhone to a HomePod, complete with tactile interface

  • But even without that, Apple's HomePod Mini is a curiously cool little cup of sound. It's not a Continental Cup, but it's one that offers something delicious all the same: tasty grooves in a small size.And it's a cup that feels like it gets better over ti...

  • Had the HomePod mini arrived before the original HomePod—as it probably should have—this would have been a very different review. But knowing how well the HomePod sounds, how cheap the Echo Dot and Nest Mini are, and how little Siri does compared to the o...

  • Abstract:  Audio performance is our top criteria for reviewing speakers, but aesthetics matter too. No one wants a hideous hunk of plastic pumping out tunes in their living room, regardless of how good it sounds. Not all stylish speakers back up looks with hi-fi so...
