Great sound, and works great in Apple ecosystem

After having one of these for a few weeks and being blown away by the quality of the sound coming out of it, I bought a second one to put in a different room. It's pricey, but I love the convenience of being able to easily play music/podcasts/internet radio from my phone to the device with a tap or a voice command, and hearing a fullness of sound that is better than what I get from my 5.1 home theater system. I wasn't much of a Siri user before, so was mostly getting this to be a network-connected speaker that integrated well with my Apple devices, but now use Siri on it regularly, including to control HomeKit devices. The setup couldn't have been easier. If you're already invested in the Apple ecosystem, and can afford the cost, getting one of these is highly recommended. Only removing one star because of the high cost - otherwise I'm really happy with HomePod.

Love my HomePods

Bought it to make a stereo pair. Sounds amazing. Great price, free delivery. Thanks Adorama. Not sure if it's something I did wrong, but the iOS stereo pairing was not as slick as Apple make it out to be, the option didn't appear until the new HomePod had completed a iOS update; seems they must be on the same iOS version which is fair but a little confusing at first.

Good sounds quality in a flawed product.

Good sound quality. The delay in playing music and movies from a mac is disappointing though. Apple needs to fix that - especially for a product at this price point.Would I buy it again - no.

just a speaker

This is not really a smart device. It seems to be quite dumb compared to Google and Amazon's versions. The sound is amazing, but I can't think of a good reason Apple can't be doing more with Siri here.

Great Speaker and Home Automation Interface

By Thomas A.

Fantastic sound! Amazing that “Hey Siri, …” works at normal speaking volume even while music is playing loudly. Works flawlessly with HomeKit to control my house.

The new sound of home
HomePod is a powerful speaker that sounds amazing and adapts to wherever it's playing. It's the ultimate music authority, bringing together Apple Music and Siri to learn your taste in music. It's also an intelligent home assistant, capable of handling everyday tasks - and controlling your smart home. HomePod takes the listening experience to a whole new level. And that's just the beginning.

A breakthrough speaker all around
We completely reimagined how music should sound in the home. HomePod combines Apple-engineered audio technology and advanced software to deliver the highest-fidelity sound throughout the room, anywhere it's placed. This elegantly designed, compact speaker totally rocks the house.

Deep bass. Engineered to lower the boom
We built the high-excursion woofer with a custom amplifier to play a wide range of deep, rich bass. A powerful motor drives the diaphragm a full 20 mm - remarkable for a speaker this size. Meanwhile, HomePod uses an advanced algorithm that continuously analyzes the music and dynamically tunes the low frequencies for smooth, immersive sound.

Seven tweeters. Amazing sound from every angle
HomePod has a unique array of seven beamforming tweeters. Each with its own amplifier and transducer. And each custom designed with a precision acoustic horn that focuses sound for tremendous directional control. Creating an all-encompassing sense of space - and consistent, high-fidelity audio everywhere in the room.

A8 chip. The biggest brain ever in a speaker
An Apple-designed A8 chip powers the most complex audio innovations in HomePod. Like real-time modeling of the woofer mechanics. Buffering that's even faster than real time. Upmixing of both direct and ambient audio. Beamforming so the microphone can hear you over the music. And advanced echo cancellation. So you get amazing sound without even thinking about it.

Beautiful design with a purpose
HomePod is wrapped in a seamless mesh fabric designed for both aesthetic and acoustic performance. Available in white and space gray, it's gorgeous from every angle - yet virtually transparent to the music. And at just under seven inches tall, it can fit anywhere in your home.

It's easier than easy. It's automatic
Setting up HomePod is quick and magical. Simply plug it in and your iOS device will detect it. Equipped with spatial awareness, HomePod automatically adjusts to give you optimal sound - wherever it's placed. It can even hear your requests from across the room while loud songs are playing. All you need to do is enjoy your music.

Senses the room and tunes the music. All by itself
Place HomePod anywhere in the room. It automatically analyzes the acoustics, adjusts the sound based on the speaker's location and separates the music into direct and ambient sound. Direct sound is beamed to the middle of the room, while ambient sound is diffused into left and right channels and bounced off the wall. So your music sounds amazing, wherever you are in the room.

Create stereo sound with a second HomePod
Put another HomePod in the same room and they automatically detect and balance each other. With advanced beamforming capabilities, a HomePod pair is able to create a wider, more immersive soundstage than a traditional stereo pair.

AirPlay 2. Add HomePod to more rooms
When you add HomePod to more than one room, the speakers communicate with each other through AirPlay 2. Play the same music everywhere or play different songs in different rooms. You can also control any other AirPlay 2-compatible speakers.

The ultimate music authority
HomePod is built to bring out the best in Apple Music. With the intelligence of Siri and access to virtually all the world's songs, it's like having your very own musicologist who learns and plays what you like and helps you discover music you love.

Over 45 million songs in your home
Apple Music unlocks virtually every song you can imagine. Siri helps you find exactly what you want to hear and what you want to hear next - including new music across a huge range of genres and moods. And friends connected to your Wi-Fi network can stream their music right to your HomePod. Don't have Apple Music? Try it free for three months and cancel anytime.

Responds to your voice. And your touch
Tap the top of HomePod to play, pause, skip a song or adjust the volume. Touch and hold the top to talk to Siri. You'll know Siri is listening by the LED waveform that animates with your every word.

Home to an intelligent assistant
HomePod is great at playing your music. But it can also tell you the latest news, traffic, sports and weather. Set reminders and tasks. Send messages. Hand off phone calls. And HomePod is a hub for controlling your smart home accessories - from a single light bulb to the whole house - with just your voice.

Siri has all kinds of answers
Thanks to Siri, HomePod is great at the things you want to know and do, in your home. Set timers. Convert measurements. Get translations. And get live news, sports, weather and traffic. You can also create lists that anyone can add to.

At home with calls and messages
Use HomePod to send messages using just your voice. And when you receive a text, Siri can read it to you. For hands-free conversations, start or receive a call on your iPhone and hand it off to HomePod.

This is how you command a room
Just say "Hey Siri, turn on the lights" or "Hey Siri, make the room cooler." You can even ask Siri to set scenes, like "Good morning," that put multiple accessories to work - all at once. A wide range of accessories work with Apple's HomeKit platform. Just add an accessory to the Home app, then control it with your voice on HomePod.
