been very happy with my homepod mini - doesn't seem like there's many additional features in the larger size one (except for higher sound levels?)

I enjoy the HomePod mini we were gifted in the kitchen. It sounds fine for what it is but Siri is basically a glorified kitchen timer as it fails at least 70% of the time at answering a question or even turning lights on and off.

Is it too much to ask to say “Siri turn off all lights except kitchen island” and expect it to do it? No matter how many times I have reconfigured things in the Home app it just can’t do it I have to ask it to turn off all lights then turn on the kitchen island :facepalm:

Yeah, that sort of low hanging fruit is a bit annoying... although if you find yourself doing that a lot, adding a named shortcut / scene for it is a decent workaround.

The main thing the full-size HomePod brings is more speakers for better sound.
