Apple's new HomePod Mini comes at a much lower $99 price compared to the original HomePod which is now $299.
There are some pretty awesome new features like the Intercom feature, but in this video, we are going to focus on sound quality by listening to three different genres of music.
At the same time, Google released a new Nest Audio speaker which is much louder and should have better sound quality with a dedicated woofer and tweeter for the same $99 as the homepod mini and Amazon has brand new 4th Gen Echo and Echo Dot for $99 and $49 as well.
Which smart speaker is the best in terms of sound quality and features, and what limitations do they have? Lets find out!!

To me, gonna be homepod despite volume kinda mid.. its clean and balance.
(Edit): that rock track really made homepod outwash lol
For sound quality, HomePod. For smart home device compatibility, Echo. So get a bunch of HomePods but a few of Echo dot (Echo dot are sometimes bundled for free when you buy other smart devices anyways.) 😆
@@wcheung2008 I'd say just get the normal echo, sound is similar to homepod and it's alot more useful
There is an error with the icon not above the dot when the rock song sounds. Whoops! Nice video though! :)
It is not about sound quality
But which ecosystem that u using
If I want sound quality
I won't be buying any of these speakers
The echo dots sound absolutely terrible lmao
Lol it was so bad
Check the price
They are not meant for hifi music. Speech sounds great on it so communications, notifications, audiobooks, etc work real well. Combined with the pricing, it's why Alexa is #1 in that market.
@@a55tech ohh ok
The echo do is a speaker is facing the front but the mic was on top. So it makes the sound of the echo dot even worse, the echo dot is actually has a decent sound.
I laughed out loud when I heard the Echo Dot.
Check the price
@@soberanisfam1323 stop saying check the price
@@soberanisfam1323 You get an entire room full of garbage for $10, but would you buy it? It is literal trash garbage, but hey, its only $10.

@@savioansel4433 The camera is on top, but he said the mic was in front of the devices.
That tiny HomePod has some good sound quality tbh
Listen up don’t u think that home mini sounds the best and most natural among all four of them.

You messed up the sound editing in the rock section
If I were to buy them, the HomePod mini and echo are the best. They have the best sound quality and base
I was so triggered by this
That was stupid. It’s the whole point. How can you mess that one up
Yeah I was so confused until I saw the HomePod mini light wasn’t on at the right time.
I also noticed that
Rock music:*starts*
UA-cam subtitles: [Applause]
LOVE the Homepod Mini. As I'm already vested into the Apple ecosystem (iPhone, Mac, AppleTV, etc) the Homepod is the obvious choice for me. I also own Echo, and although Echo is "technically smarter," if you use Apple devices, Homepod has some tricks. For instance, I use Carplay in my car. With a Homebod, all I have to do is tell Homepod where I want to drive to for navigation. Seamlessly, once I get into my car and use Car Play, my navigation is automatically set up. LOVE that. With the Incredible Sound of the Homepod Mini... I'm ALL In!
Think it depends. I am invested into the Apple eco system (Phones, Laptops, Accessories) and I decided to go with Google/Nest for my Smartphone eco system. They all work great together.
Is the HomePod mini sound like really really good
Suggestion for future videos: show us what they sound like at lower volumes. I find the sonic balance drastically different on these when your rocking a party vs having it on in the background at work or for socializing. I have the new echo and I find it gets harsh as hell as it gets loud too.
Another suggestion is to test the audio with them close to a wall. No one would put an echo on a table in the middle of a room like your test. Put them on a shelf like we users do. That will affect bass balance. Thanks!
I'm surprised apple hasn't made a speaker in the range between their two models as a $199 model would sound great. I guess you could stereo pair two of them.
In the rock comparison you forgot to change the icon to Echo dot, it may confuse some people.
Sorry guys editing mistake, but trust your ears. At first you hear something that sounds terrible (echo dot) and then something that sounds amazing (HomePod Mini) lol..
Max Tech no problem! It’s just a little mistake, nothing wrong. The video is still really entertaining.
@@MaxTechOfficial it’s fine, you can always tell when the HomePod is playing as it lights up at the top.
That's what I was thinking about. I though he messed up the audio recording on the HomePod Mini or something.
The sound test, the HomePod mini wins. Everything else except the echo (larger one) is muffled, and the mini is amazing
@UC1JkF9XpdA2PnPx4T_Qe9Zw hOme pod mini is not directional , 6:15- it covers all area
@@ajmalrasheed882 wut?
@@chef_latte UA-cam broke his response, as evident by the weird username... he meant to reply to someone else.
Mic placement is very important
You're wrong. Nest Audio actually sounds better overall. I have both, and the original Homepod.
The icon indicating which speaker is active is screwed up in the second test with the echo dot failing to get the icon at all.
The Echo Dot and Echo have eq settings in the Alexa app that can and need to be adjusted. Once I adjusted mine the sound was much better!
The OG HomePod destroys all these though, so that's why I'm gonna continue using them for my new house as well
Yeah I got one and it blew me away so I got another soon after. They are so good!
The OG HomePod is also three times the price of any of these speakers in the video
@@leebeeskee Ikr, they're absolutely fantastic when they work in pairs. Only problem is that, you are limited to only a pair though. I have 2 in most of my rooms, but in my living room, makeshift part hall and basement, I have to put a pair in every corner and synchronise them manually to play the same song and start together. Otherwise, it doesn't just give the same room-filling immersive spatial audio feel I get in my bedrooms.
@@leebeeskee I wish Apple would introduce a new device to connect more than 2, something like a 5.1 surround subwoofer, something like an AirPort modem maybe. Or they could also bring it out with a software update to AirPlay, where devices compatible with AirPlay 3 allow you to pair more HomePods together. Now that would blow me away.
@@Darkshadowguy yeah, so? I couldn't give a sh*t about the price if it meant sacrificing quality. A better product remains a better product, even if overpriced.
like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....
hahah "sounds defective..."
Home pod mini in stereo is amazing especially for the size.
I second that👍👍
Best UA-cam chanel...very sensible and to the point comparisons....keep up the good work boyss 👍🏻
IMO
the best sound: HomePod mini
the most useful one: Echo
personally I would pick homepod because it sounds well, it’s 360 sound, it is small and I could have it easily outside, Siri isn’t the best but it is “usable”
How is Alexa that much better than Siri? I recently bought an Echo because i wanted to use that legendary assistant everyone talks about, but Alexa is pretty much on par with Siri on my HomePod in my experience. What scenarios show Alexa’s dominance?
@@jackmanning1117 they have a much better eco system (smart home appliances wise) than the Apple’s HomeKit. Most of the cheap smart home devices support both Google Home and Amazon Alexa but not Apple HomeKit. Also sometimes Siri is just stupid compared to other assistants.
Nah Bruh, the nest crushed it for EDM and classical. Plus the Google assistant is more smart than both and understands more commands U don't have to repeat shit.
@@harryxie981 oh yeah I don’t use any smart devices so I couldn’t care less about the smart home ecosystem. I just use my smart speakers for playing music and answering random questions (which Siri seems to be just at good at as Alexa)
@@harryxie981 but that is not a great argument for the Echos or Alexa itself. The approach Amazon took with Alexa is quite dystopian. Since they couldn‘t care less about privacy, you can usually connect every smart home device that‘s out there - but usually at the cost of privacy AND security, plus quality of the product itself. Every major brand that I‘d trust is easily available as HomeKit compatible, Philips Hue‘s, Ikea‘s trådfri, Elgato Eve, Bosch, Vocolinc, etc. I have my whole apartment set up with smart home stuff and HomeKit is by far the easiest way to control all of those and make automations. Maybe on par of Samsung‘s SmartThings or even better. If you have the cash and don‘t want your data to land on chinese servers, definitely go for HomeKit. I use it every day and it‘s just awesome.
2:15 this song is stuck in my head since the MacBook Air M1 review :S
Great video, super comparison!
Please do a similar compare for the bigger Home Pod too please.
I love the way you do the test! Could you do a test with the Google Nex, HomePod mini, HomePod and Logitech Wonderboom?
Okay yes, sound quality is highly subjective . But I feel that the Nest Audio deserves so much better than in this video. Yes, it has not this shattering low end, but it sounds so balanced and great for all types of music. The HomePod Mini is really U shaped to my ears (but not bad by any means) Sometimes I believe that everybody has forgotten about what good sound really means. To my ears the Nest Audio is not far behind the Sonos One. Only con is that it is very directional, so the sweetspot is a little bit small
You forgot a few other things: the Echo does not only have an aux-out. That aux-out can also be configured as an aux-in. On top of that, it also sports a full featured Zigbee Hub.
Nice comparison! I’m keeping my HomePod mini. Keep up the great content!
Where did you place the microphone for recording these comparisons?
Just FYI you can boost the bass on the Nest Audio.
Great job! Thank you this really helped me.
I just got the Homepod Mini for Christmas, it is amazing!
wow definately amazing sound comparing review. I actually experienced both homepod mini versa google nest mini and found that homepod mini is amazing!
Thinks max, I was waiting for this great video.👍
I have a HomePod mini and I LOVE IT!
I have it too. It’s amazing! I did a sound comparison with the HomePod mini, Echo, and Echo Dot. The HomePod mini smashed the Dot, and it had better bass and clarity compared to the Echo. I love it!
HomePod mini sounds the best out of all three sounds amazing !
As an apple fan, the echo sounds tHe best
For 99 % of people price matters. The danger of getting in to the Apple eco system is that, you get locked in to the high cost system. Sure Apple products are great but once you go in, customers are committed to that high cost eco system. The ultimate decision is always 1) Do you mind the high Price eco system? 2) Do you mind being restricted in terms of accessibility in Apple's ecosystem? But I do agree Apple's devices are great sounding in a such a small package.
Good comparison! I bought a white home pod mini, I loved it so much the next day I went and got a space grey. Stereo pair in a room is amazing! And they look perfect, they melt in their surroundings.
That’s so funny I did the EXACT same thing haha. I love both colors and they do melt in the surroundings and look great . A suggestion ..check out the Spigen coaster stand on Amazon…there like 11 or 12 bucks and the hp minis sit on them they look nice in them
Fucking finally a real test of these stuff
No one on UA-cam was able to do it
You are now my favorite channel after mkbhd
I was already kinda planning on getting myself the HomePod, but dang it sounds nice! I already have some “real” stereo speakers hooked up to my tv, but in my small room you don’t get their full potential unless centered in front of the tv watching a movie or gaming. The HomePod should be great for Siri and my smart lighting setup, and for softer music or ambient audio whilst in my corner chair behind my big speakers.
Part of the test is should include how well the microphones hear and respond to vocal cues.
I strongly agree 👍🏾
For a small device, the Apple HomePod Mini sounds really good compared to the two bigger speakers. Almost on par with them at a fraction of the size.
Bass is my preference.
1:04 thanks for mentioning this. I have an usb-c powerbank and I think it is an big deal it can do this. (Although it unfortunately can only give 15 watts where the HomePod needs 20. But the updated model that I need to inevitably buy when my current one dies, because it is more than 3 years old now, does have it.)
The echo do is a speaker is facing the front but the mic was on top. So it makes the sound of the echo dot even worse, the echo dot actually has a decent sound.
He actually has the mic in front of the speakers as he stated in the video
I have a set of paired full sized HomePods in my living room and love them (got them on sale at Best Buy earlier this year for $200 each). Just bought the mini for my home office and am very impressed. I also really love using the phone handoff feature for calls. Regarding this test, the mini continues to impress. Naturally the larger speakers can achieve higher volume levels. One of the best features that the apple products have is the ability to hear you even while playing at loud volumes. This had been a serious source of frustration with my Google and Echo devices, granted they are older models. I am not sure if Google and Amazon have improved their listening skills on these newer models. Lastly with regard to Siri vs. Alexa vs. Google’s smarts, I would take security over diversity any day. Yes, Apple’s ecosystem is walled, for good reason.
Great video! The HomePod Mini sounds much more “open” to me compared to the others. Can you compare the HomePod Mini to a Sonos One?
No real comparison will be made between the Homepod mini and another speaker at the same price or less expensive.
No medium or high sound is sent in your direction, but only the bass.
It is on a piece of furniture, at a distance of 3m that the comparison must be made with the microphone on the person filming and not above the Homepod.
The rock part was a bit off, but otherwise great comparison!! That HomePod mini is surprisingly good for its size... 😧
I've the eco dot 4th gen first time having one and its amazing sound quality is superb
The HomePod sounds incredible and it’s more than loud enough for me and I just use it too listen too music and too ask very basic questions too Siri so I’m gonna be getting that
I had an aneurysm reading this.
Thank you for 60 likes
I agree 🔥🔥🔥
The HomePod mini had the best overall sound in most tests especially for the size. My only wish was that there was a hardware mic turn off switch.
@Raul Tomusca Can't tell if serious. 🤔
The HomePod mini does't send any data to Apple until it hears "hey Siri" and you can even turn that off through software in the home app. I suppose accidental activations could be a concern, but overall it has excellent privacy.
I just know someone is going to reply "apple says it doesn't send any data but they could be lying," to which I say, Google could be lying about what that mic switch does, or they could have a secondary microphone built in that isn't affected by the switch, or one of a dozen other things that would let them still spy on you, all the switch does is give you the illusion of extra control. Unless, of course, you decide to take it apart and analyse every component.
In the Home App you can turn off listening for HAY SIRI it’s still in the App so it wont be listening 👂
My only wish was that siri didn't suck overall lol
Id rather SIRI SUCK instead of Send my INFO out like GOOGLE And AMAZON thats the PRICE for PRIVACY ill pay it / watch the show NEXT on HULU
the homepod mini is just a flipped echo
Oh my god
With a much better sound 💪🏻
I bought the HomePod mini and I am impressed with its great sound but could be a little louder.
I have a Wonderboom v1 which still surprises me with its sound and volume.
Could you do a HomePod vs Wonderboom comparison?
My bedroom is pretty much the only Smart zone in the house as I live with my family still so the Homepod Mini is plenty loud enough and sounds fantastic lol plus that Apple ecosystem is always phenomenal
I have the Nest and I really like it, loud enough for the room, and looks great on my living room, my friends and family love it also! It's my first smart speaker though, before I had a Archeer a320 that really have great bass, but Nest is more balanced in cord instruments and vocals and the assistant is great, the best buy always depends of your personal taste and the space you want to fill with sound
I wait Daily for your video.
For privacy alone the HomePod Mini is the clear winner. We have a full size HomePod and it's amazing.
Great review, thanks!
I like the integration with my iPhone. Got to go with HomePod mini
Does the new echo sound better than the previous gen?
I have the last year’s generation cylinder type, and it’s pretty good.
I'm well and happy in my Apple ecosystem, but the audio quality and value of the Nest Audio is unmatched. I don't really care for Apple's features in the Mini, and tbh Siri is still trash, so the Nest Audios have been awesome and I love them.
I liked the homepod mini. I bought one as a computer speaker for my sons zoom classes. There was like one second lag on it so I ended up using the homepod mini in his bedroom to airplay my toddlers favorite lullaby UA-cam video. I can only do it with the homepod. I might buy three more minis
One expensive solution to make HomePod more compatible to other smart home devices is to buy an echo dot, then ask Siri to intercom to a room with echo dot and say something like “Alexa, turn off light” 😆
The Echo and Homepod mini rocked! 😍😍
Bought HomePod mini this Christmas 😀
Not expected result, I have Google Home Max and powerful bass is the best thing about it 😂
I already ordered the HomePod mini. Hopefully it wasn’t a mistake 😀
Glad to see the one thats winning is mine :) Echo 4th gen.
That haircut and beard fade looks fire 🔥
The HomePod mini has amazing sound quality despite its small size! definitely the winner of the test
Google assistant is better than siri tho
@@dnghn.design But Siri doesn’t send ur data to apple like google assistant. And sell them,meh.
@@dnghn.design Siri is slowly improving. On some tests I can see Siri answer 40/50 questions while google assistant 46/50. Not a lot.

@@kelvin3350 true
Idk if the other products have EQ adjustment like the nest audio but when you crank up bass and treble on the eq settings they sound a lot better. I would never listen to my nest audio on default settings
I already got two homepod minis and been watching this to make sure of my choice and wow I'm shocked about how great the homepod sounded in comparison to the echos and google home. Definitely going to be keeping this.
OMG same!! I’m listening to tons of videos to convince myself I made the right choice with going with the HomePod Mini.
That fact that you guys have to "check" if you made the right choice lmao. I bought the Echo and immediately fell in love. Great quality sound, it's an actual smart speaker unlike homepod with simple Siri commands, and the fact that you can plug it in to any bigger speaker is amazing as it transforms essentially any speaker into a smart speaker with Alexa. I mean seriously, the things you can do with an Echo is insane.
@@luludvega the echo has crap sound which is why you can plug it into any other speaker with better sound.
I paid $49 for my Amazon Echo, and I just looked online and now they're on sale for $28.99
Oof😂💔
That’s Black Friday for you
Wow i paid $99 Dollars for HomePod mini last week now this it’s still worth $99 Dollars/oh my 😳😉

You’ve sold me solidly for the paired HomePod minis for my Mac mini Silicon setup.
Worth noting that stereo pairing doesn’t work with macOS (except in the TV and Music app)
I set up such a pair , about 3 hours ago. They are very good ( and I wear hearing-aids ) I have only tested them out on music from my Apple Match collection, so far.
4:55 why is the HomePod lit when you’re showing the echo as playing now?
Have You tested the Atmos function of the HomePod after the tvOS 14.2 upgrade?
This was an interesting comparison.
Being an old-timer, who uses a pair of hearing-aids, the sound coming out of my iPad Air 2 was terrible. However, I watched your review, again with a pair of decent powered speakers which I have connected to my MacBook and the differences were much more evident.
As it happens, just before I listened to your review on my iPad, I had set up a pair of Mini-Homepods , as a stereo pair in my living room and was so impressed by the clarity. , Most of my music is Classical and perhaps future demos could include a short snatch of Elgar's Cello Concerto , or a violin piece to see how non-amplified instruments sound.. I'm sure that some people do listen to such music amongst the younger group , that you aim your channel at. One more thing : having the speakers on that hard worktop might make the sound somewhat harsh. Perhaps a heavy cloth or anything softer might make a difference.
I also have larger Homepods installed in three other rooms (I live alone ) so my house is also filled with such waking music as Shake Rattle And Roll or Rip It Up . Thanks for your efforts in making interesting videos.
How are the HomePod minis as a stereo pair? I think one has great sound for being so small.
@@truthistheKJV .
I am listening to the stereo pair in a room about 15' 3" by 25' and they are sharp and clear and plenty loud enough. But I am playing popular instrumental tracks from the 50s and 60s, such as "Telstar" and "Take Five" ,and the bass in those days is nothing as heavy as modern rock, say. Remember, also that I am wearing hearing aids set at normal levels, so my hearing will not be anywhere as good as normal.
Of course the depth is not as good as the larger HomePods, but look at the price difference. My advice is , if you have the money, buy a pair from Apple, try them You have 14 days to return them , if you are disappointed.
Good luck.
Hmm well I have Amazon echos all around my house right now, but I’m not sure. I mean I already have iPhone 12, iPad Air 4, and MacBook Pro 2020. Should I go with the HomePod to keep up the Apple trend?
Im not sure if I caught it but did you adjust the EQ setting for all devices or are they straight out of the box
The bigger echo smashes it. Best sounding out of all of them. Get 2 and set up as stereo pair and they’re stunning.
On the echos, did you adjust the eq? By default they are kind of bad until you tweak the levels.
I got an Amazon Echo Dot. TBH the sound is great for me, It's got some bass and the music doesn't sound as bad. Worth the price for me. Oh, and if you put the Echo Dot at a corner, you can definitely feel the bass....
When the homepod mini came out I immediately switched from the echo show and it sounded so much better and it was much easier to use
Love your vids!
I lol’d when he said the echo dot sounded defective 😂
Agree. The HomePod mini was fantastic.
The thing is that Amazon always but there products on sale vs apple is very stubborn
the elephant in the room: you don't like the nest audio and you want something to match your Apple watch
I would personally go with the HomePod mini because of the sound and the looks especially with the $99 price tag you can’t go wrong
homepod has this upper mid spike and low mids are kind of scooped compared to the nest, but overall really great. the big dot has awkwardly present highs.. nest has the best midrange, homepod allaround winner?
if the homepod mini supports playing sound unplugged from the power source and waterproof, I'll definitely buy it
All these except the echo dot are good speakers. I will get the Homepod mini considering the size and design.
The HomePod got that base it sounds compared to the others I can say in person it’s even better
Got me a couple of Nest speakers on sale from Google with 33% off a few years ago (only €66 each). Probably the best tech investment I've ever made. When paired up & output adjusted via the equaliser settings those really pack some punch. Assistant works very well in general, but on occasion I get a response telling me 'I can't find the other speaker in this pair' for playback which can be somewhat annoying. For the price I got them at it was a win-win situation.
I sincerely hope Homekit gets better, faster (in terms of support for devices). Because that HomePod mini is relatively cheap for the sound it gives!
Most devices don’t want to adhere to Apple’s privacy rules. That’s why HomeKit support is lacking.
The speaker icon is not moving between HomePod mini and echo dot
I don’t know if you will consider to make a video about the new Home Theater on HomePod and Apple TV 4K. But, I’m still waiting for that.
Amazing comparison brother.
In the second song he mixes up the echo and HomePod mini clips because you can see the white circle on the HomePod mini when the echo is supposed to be playing
I'd like to see a comparison to the built-in sound of different iPads and the Homepod Mini. What will I gain if I get a Homepod Mini vs using my iPad for sound? Thanks!
The HomePod mini will be much louder and sharper than any iPad on the market trust me 👌🏼👌🏼
Can you also compare Sonos One and Böse 300 or 500? They are also very popular and supporting Google assistant and Amazon Alexa.
Man all I wish is that the HomePod mini had a louder sound I might wait till apple releases another HomePod next year or the year after
OMG THE MINI SOUNDS MAD GOOD
Got the dot for next to the bed for the clock and smart assistance. Got the regular Echo for the living room.
I own all three one in each room on the first floor and basement. Google has the best smart assistant, Amazon controls my smart home and I love the skills, finally I love the sound of the HomePod mini. The other two add more audio so when I want to listen to louder I use the Google or echo. But when I want really loud music with great quality I use the six out on the Amazon to a better speaker.
Thanks… i know what to buy now ☺️🎶🎵
