is that the M1 macbook behind you? ;)

I could literally feel the disappointment run through me when you asked Siri for those jokes.

I mainly use mine as an alarm clock. It's just cool to go to bed and set an alarm by talking to a device. I live alone, so it is also just nice to say, "Hey Siri, goodnight," and get a response. Okay, I know that is a bit sad... I also keep up with news from home every morning when I wake up by saying "Hey Siri, please play ABC news." Also - I like how you can ask it to play ambient noise, like rain on a roof... These are probably not the intended main features, but somehow, it has become an important part of my life within such a short time.

Thank you! I love how unbiased your reviews are, to the point and yet encompasses everything.

The intercom feature is literally calling for your kids to 'come downstairs' 2.0 :D

You have to got to appreciate how cool the intros look.

just added two mini's with the mission battery base. I use them as a stereo pair for my desktop Mac mini and Apple TV home theater and move them around wirelessly as needed. They've proven to be really great so far. The integrations into my set up is very minimal and portable now.they are great!

I appreciate the objectivity in this review. I have the OG HomePod and agree with everything you said 100%. Not sure if I’ll go with the Mini for a second speaker but interested in going the Amazon route to go deeper into the smart home automation eco system

Okay so there’s a point where you reach the peak of intro coolness. This is that. Hollywood level dude. That’s insane.

When I ask Siri for a joke, it’s always puns like : “Tell a joke about sodium?” *”Na”*

7:38 Thanks for intercoming my entire house. The fam said to say they are doing great...

I love your reviews. Gives me everything I need and has influenced a lot of my purchases

When Siri told the second joke I could swear Marques would say "So don't buy the Home Pod Mini. Thanks for watching"

"Hey Siri, tell me a joke." "I'm listening..."

I’m the third option at the end. I’m using my Apple TV a lot now, can’t afford a sound bar and thought a stereo pair would work well. Plus that compatibility all working in the Apple eco system is ideal. Thanks for another awesome review. Love your content

I just got a home pod and it's fantastic and I love it!

Old Marques: "So I've had the homepod mini for about a week now" New Marques: "Let's talk about my week with the homepod mini" 🙃

KZfaq needs to give mkbhd an award for best intros for the year

The sound is exceptional, love the nature sounds

This answered all my questions. Thanks for the amazing review. May start with just ordering 2 mini.

My Siri's response when asked for a good joke: "To the person who stole my glasses: I will find you. I have contacts."

Marquee Brownlee: makes a slick intro. Also Marques: has an M1 MacBook behind him, which this video has been edited on!

I use this for my room and when I play music the entire apartment listens to the song XD and the audio quality is absolutely top notch, Siri is good enough for the tasks I need a smart speaker to do.

Phenomenal review man, I love the unbiased facts that you provided and comparisons to other smart speakers. Thank you so much!

0:01 even your drawer has a notch

"If you ever get to touch it" wallet: hes not wrong

I have an Ecko I got for Christmas last year. I'm getting two home pod minis, just because of the eco system! They are just really cool!

For me the biggest factor in buying a device like this is privacy, so it’s a shame to see that this wasn’t mentioned here. Google and Amazon have awful track records when it comes to privacy, whereas Apple (whilst not perfect) has proved time and time again that they not only take privacy seriously - but go out of their way to include privacy preserving features in their products.

me: doing hw marques: *uploads* me: due to personal reasons i am no longer doing hw

"Hey Siri, tell me a good joke" Siri: "Your life"

Wow the intercom system sounds amazing This part of the video made me want to buy now thank you for the details you shared about this product I have to look at the top to make sure I spell your name correctly

I am literally in love with your videos.They are informative, calming, and transparent. What else more can a techie ask for??

"Alexa", Add Apple HomePod mini in shopping cart.

The “good joke” that siri makes is about siri herself being a spy

That was an awesome honest review taken from all viewpoints of every ecosystem between the Google Alexa and Apple thank you

I just really love watching your reviews!!! Love from Philippines!!

1:28 Impressed with the WHITE BOARD CREATIVITY!!

the level of talent this man has when it comes to reviewing tech is marvelous. It's like he's telling a story and never misses his mark. Beautiful reviews with astounding outros. Bravo my friend, much love, keep up the good work!

Dude, you are gifted to explain things. Well done and thanks (again)

Great review. I’m convinced that I need one of these.

2:49 that globe right there have some serious message for whole world

That feeling when MKBHD just intercommed my whole house.

I would've been interested to hear how audio compares to the new Nest Audio, because even though Google's product is full sized and they have a small sized offering that you talked about, the $99 Nest Audio price is the same as the Homepod Mini so more of a direct competitor in that sense.

I picked one up last week to play with while I’m saving up for two of the big HomePods for my home theater setup. Once I do I’ll put the mini in the bedroom.

'' for something that's 3 inches tall gives a lot of audio" -She

that intro... transition... is godlike

I accidentally do it over the top of the Mini. It does it pretty quickly and easily! Love it a lot.

Thanks for the review! I loved the HomePod and I wanted something to pair with it for another bedroom

Simply the most intelligent, concise and non biased review of any product I’ve ever seen. Thank you.

I will buy the homepod mini as soon as Spotify is enabled

perfect! that last sentence about what the HomePod is best for is exactly what I wanted to hear :D

I just got one of these for Christmas and I love it! Took a bit of work to get it set up properly in my Home (since I’m a kid everything defaults to my dad), but everything is good now and the HomePod is excellent

2:38 "Where does a matte black globe guide you ?" Marques: "dBrand HQ"

All I heard MKBHD say was, "For something 3 inches tall, it gives you A LOT-" 😎😎 I know baby.😎😎

Thank you I was hoping you had a review on this bad boy 🤘🏼

Always the most informative on all reviews. Keep it up bruhh ✊🏾 💯

I swear the production quality of this 12 minutes video is higher quality than most Netflix shows

He saw Apples transitions and is really putting them in his videos 😂

I just purchased one yesterday, January 5! I am enjoying it.

I love how your video starts so awesome! 👌🏻

I noticed your intro quality has been improving and I supper appreciate the extra work you are putting in!! I had to show my sister that cool transition you made. Keep it up!!

So... is Siri spying on us? 🤔

I just bought one and there’s so many features I didn’t know about 😮

Informative and well presented. I’m waiting on mine to ship. Thanks from Orlando Florida.

4:03 Marques’ reaction was more funnier than Siri’s joke

I watched this on my iPad. Every time he said “hey Siri,” my iPad responded. When he said, “hey Siri, tell me a joke,” my iPad paused this video and told me a stupid joke.

Nice review. I think I’m going to give it a try. Thanks for sharing!

I’m so happy I saw this video I’m literally going to binge watch all of the videos you’ve realised as it’s so informative as an avid apple user myself.

When you said “Hey Siri what’s good everybody” into the intercom feature my apartment lit up like a Christmas tree 🤣🤣🤣

"Let's talk about my week, with the home pod mini" MKB trying hard to find synonymous phrases to keep it fresh.

"Hey Siri, intercom everyone: 'Hey Siri, intercom everyone'" - infinite loop?

I listened to your video via my new HomePod Mini. It was shockingly great sound quality.

Me: doing homework Marques: *uploads* Me: I don't need homework, I need *video*

I'd love a comparison video on the sound quality across the different smart speaker line ups. Like rank them all out by sounds then extrapolate price, features and stuff from there.

Killer review as always man! Enjoy your videos!

Multiple HomePod mini review videos I’ve seen yet this is the only one I needed to see. Ty

It’s amazing how he makes better intros every video. It’s just proves how his creativity is not limited and he is still progressing every day. Love it!

I almost can’t stand how honest these reviews are. They open my eyes and break my heart. Great job 👏🏼

Great experience and review. I have never seen another guy with such a great demeanor, incredible presence, professionalism and personality. I’m hooked, man. Thanks for highlighting that you can be a guy doing this without going all crazy and boisterous. It’s really refreshing to have someone present themselves as you have here. No wonder you have such reach. Glad to subscribe. Peace.

Excellent review! Thank you!

I just realized that this is one of Apple’s cheapest products

I literally was in search of the review for this little guy! ON TIME!

I typed in HomePod mini and saw your thumbnail and clicked as I love your posts and reviews and use what you say as the truth. You really are a great KZfaqr! Thank you for another great review and help/info ❤

I would love an "A year later" review for this

“For something three inches tall, gives you a lot of audio” You hear that shrimp gang, we makin noise!!

Years later and I still love and am impressed with the sound quality of my original HomePod

Underrated little speaker, use it everyday!

Nice I just got a home pod mini as a gift made my day as I def have some apple products and use them all the time can’t wait to set this up later!

My mom could use this to call the whole house for dinner.

7:38 My Homepod picked up that message and my wife is now super confused by that intercom message 😂

Got a hompod mini, today. Got a great advice about my purchase from this.

2:50 When you're so minimalistic that even your globe is black⚫

When he said,'' the thing feels premium when u touch it...if u ever touch it'.' I felt that.

That intro though Marques, biiiiig kudos 🔥

SHEEESH the intro Marques 🔥🔥🔥🔥

No one is talking about how dope the intro was especially the camera move..i think he was using the robot

I'm still waiting on mine to arrive, but I am still so curious if I should've bought 2 for the stereo feature. I kinda wanna hear it first but lockdown sooo

I still prefer the original HomePod when it comes to sound quality. I have two and paired them as stereo and the sound is just amazing. Love it!

I agree with the 1 2 3. I have have the other two for years but did not like the price point on the original HomePod but now I just ordered the HomePod before watching your video. I have many apple products so might as well have it too.🤣. I do like how Alexa runs most things in my hose. I know I’m limited with HomeKit but it will control the Apple TV now so that is a plus.🤙🏼

I think I'll just get one. At least then I'll still have that "free" charger for my new iPhone.
