No. If you’re spending that much on a to then get a proper sound system.

Not a chance.
Nope , invest in a good sound system !
Heck no
It's not the best choice that exists, but if your choices are between tv speakers and a pair of minis, the minis will probably be better.
If you're buying the minis just for this, don't, get a true sound bar. If you already have the minis, you can give them a try.
You'll not get surround, you'll get stereo.
You can set the minis as the default output for the aTV.
I already have some HomePods mini in the leaving room for HomeKit purposes (not for surround tv audio). I am wondering if I could use them as a stereo pair once the new tv will come. Otherwise, I was kind of thinking to buy one regular HomePod to replace the two minis. The purpose is to enjoy a better audio quality and, at the same time, have the Apple ecosystem in a good shape.
I use the HomePod minis for my kitchen tv. It’s mostly for when I want to watch sports and my wife is watching the main tv. For my kitchen tv, I think it’s an amazing setup and great quality. I wouldn’t use it for my main tv though. My buddy has two full size HomePods as his setup and it’s not bad! The minis are too small - I wish they’d let you connect 4 of them at once
Yup. I live in a flat, and don’t need surround sound, but I think it’s an excellent sound for my TV. Light years ahead of the sound that comes out of my TV, at any rate.
TV built-in speakers are crap and the mini homepods are only slightly better. Just about any stereo pair or 2.1 system will sound infinitely better.
I have two minis with my Apple TV and I love it. Could go a bit louder but it’s better than the Tv speakers for sure
Why would you get a like $5K TV and 200$ worth of "speaker" lmao
I use a pair for my m1 iMac. I like the look and how it fits on the desktop.
Dont bother.
