Product reviewsApple HomePod Smart Speaker | Voice Activated with Siri | Space Grey

Superb at the right price

Purchased both second hand on eBay for £250 which I believe is the correct price level for these wonderful speakers.

Siri integration is just right for music listening and not much more at the moment. However it’s music first for me as I wanted audio quality in a non intrusive package, multi room and works with Apple Music - these are perfect.

I have had a Sonos One and much prefer the audio of the HomePod as well as looks and the feeling of more privacy (I just don’t trust amazon or google as much as Apple (that’s why you pay more))

Enhanced Siri + £50 RRP cheaper and these would be 5 stars!Read full review...

Not great at all

Bought speaker thinking it would be the best as Apple but how wrong was I half the time it does not work with home app and on setup it’s saying that some items mite not work correct as my internet is not compatible so ring Apple they try setting up same problem they told me my router is not compatible wow was my word was, I regret buying this as Constant problems you ask for light on plays music and so on or don’t work at all, I looked up on google and this is a common problem alone with the security risk as liked to your Apple ID and does not use the same chip used in iPhone what a joke of a speaker at £280.00 it’s a ripoff.Read full review...

Easy to set up, discreet, and excellent sound quality.

Apple's HomePods give excellent performance even as a stand-alone device. Set up is easy, with only the power cable to worry about, and the device sits discreetly in the background rather than dominating a room.

The sound quality is first rate, especially when the background noise varies, and it's hard to believe that it's all coming from a single device.

We've also recently bought some HomePod Minis, and they've turned out to be much more fiddly to set up properly. What a shame that the larger HomePods are no longer made.Read full review...

The Sound Proves It. . .Now That's What I Call Smart!

Apple's HomePod is a really smart speaker, which thanks to serious levels of engineering, produces sound better than anything I've heard in such a small unit.

The heft when removing the HomePod from it's box, instantly lets you know that you are holding something very special indeed. A few minutes later, after painlessly setting up via an iOS device, you are met with an incredible sound.

It is simply. . . WOW!.

Siri, the onboard musicologist, works as intended and depending on how you have Siri set up, can set reminders, alarms, control HomeKit compatible Smart Gadgetry (like Philips Hue lights).

I absolutely love my HomePod and am very pleased that I bought one. The HomePod is a properly smart speaker.

The sound proves it.Read full review...

First Class Product

Great product, first class quality as are our other Apple products.
Home pods are easy to set up and sound great even better when used in pairs.

Pure audio brilliance spoiled by a few shortcomings.

Stunning sound quality for such a compact device. Very neat looking and beautifully made. The sound quality just makes up for the lack of an auxiliary input for connection to my vinyl turntable, the poorly featured Siri feature and the mediocre App. However, I am prepared to tolerate these shortcomings for the sake of the superb listening experience!

Music to my ears!

Just got my 4th HomePod so finally have stereo pairs in both my sitting room and bedroom. They are linked to my MacBook, iPhone, iPad and Apple TV all via the Home app and work together or separately almost seamlessly. For film / TV the speakers produce really good crisp sound and, whilst they don't (quite) match a cinema surround d system, they are not far off. For music they are in a class of their own. The range is fantastic, high notes and voices are crisp and clear and the bass tones add real depth. I bought one direct from Apple at full price and the remaining three (boxed / sealed / new) on ebay, saving between £60-80 per unit - the latter being a more realistic price/value in my opinion. Thoroughly recommended.Read full review...

Quality, ease of use, maintained by Apple

Great quality: the sound will bring you joy each day. Microphones work even if you're quite distant, the homepod is getting updates and new features like phone calls, multiple timers etc. Not your grand-parent's Siri :-) Replaced an existing google home, which went on ebay... Homepod Recommended!Read full review...

Look & Sound Great, but...

I bought two Apple Homepods so that I could have them for stereo in my lounge. They look good, sound excellent and were easy to set up.

I haven't given "good value" because Homepods are quite expensive and not as versatile as some other offerings.Read full review...

Exactly what I was after

I had an Amazon Echo prior to buying this but found that I didn’t use a lot of the features, and that the sound quality just wasn’t what I wanted.

Bought the HomePod and couldn’t be happier, the sound quality is great and for the price it’s nice to have Siri integrated tooRead full review...
