Great design, incredible sound, easy to set up (when it works)
Siri needs some work, lack of third-party app support, can mark furniture, Rating:
The Apple HomePod is, undoubtedly, the best speaker we've ever owned; it looks great, sounds fantastic and it packs one hell of a punch for a 7in-tall device. However, it's not perfect. Siri still needs a lot of work to even come close to matching the adv...
Abstract: So before I get into the HomePod I will say that I brought this out of my own money. I wanted a smart speaker which worked better in the Apple Eco-system than the Amazon and Google alternatives. I've also had this from the release date, so I have been pla...
No radio, Made a mark on our worktop, No multi-room support, No multi-timer support, Only works with Apple Music, Siri sounds horrid
If we were grading the HomePod on its sound performance alone it would be a slam dunk. Apple has produced a small speaker that produces a sound way above its stature, in a way that is enjoyable to listen to whatever you music you're in to. It is a natural...

brilliant sound, can hear you very well, full production at low volumes, choice of male or female voice
Siri not up to scratch, no Bluetooth or analogue audio in, no native Spotify or radio, no Android or Windows support
As a simple wireless speaker the HomePod sounds truly brilliant, knocking the socks off most of the competition, including systems costing more. But because it is locked down to Apple-only devices and services it might not be as easy to fit into your exis...
Excellent, nuanced sound, Great design, Easy HomeKit setup and control, Streaming support via AirPlay
No built-in support for Spotify, Pandora, or other apps, Requires iOS device running iOS 11.2.5 to set up, No Bluetooth or Aux jack for non-iOS devices, No multi-room support at launch
Do buy the HomePod if you are a hard-core Apple user and perfectly happy with Apple Music. Do not buy it if you own any phone other than an iPhone or want to listen to music sources other than Apple Music...
Amazing sound quality, Siri voice accuracy is high, Attractive, understated design
Siri is limited, No Bluetooth streaming, Apple Music subscription needed for a worthwhile experience
Once again, we come to the familiar question with Apple: is it worth spending your money on this product, or are you better off doing so on one that's cheaper and does a lot of the same things, albeit without, perhaps, the same level of polish?The Apple H...

Apple's HomePod has left a seriously good impression on us. It looks great, has a vast array of useful smart features and can finally bring Apple Music to your living room via voice control.However, it's biggest selling point is simply the way it sounds...

Excellent highs and lows from the sound. Design
Price. Midrange sound not perfect. Confusing UI
There's nothing terribly wrong with the HomePod, so why am I slightly disappointed with it? Perhaps it is that Apple is guilty here of over-promising and under-delivering?When the HomePod was revealed we were told it was going to blow everything else away...
