Why I'll never buy a Sonos again
Google is finally realizing that one of the biggest reasons people buy a smart speaker is to be... a speaker. First generation Google Home was a great smart device and a mediocre speaker. Now with the Nest Audio we finally have an incredible Google Assistant device with an incredible speaker. I love the sound it produces. I love how loud it gets. I love the look of it. I love how sensitive the microphones are. I LOVE the price. I was on the fence about buying another Sonos One speaker, but I'm glad I waited because this is half the price, sounds just as good, and is a way better smart speaker. Also for some insane reason you still can't cast music to Sonos. Good riddance Sonos, hello Nest Audio.

Hey Google
Great upgrade to the Google home line. Speaker's quality is clear and has decent bass. The assistant is very responsive and the device itself is very nice to look at so you do not have to worry about finding a location for it that is out of sight. Setting this bad boy to max volume will definitely get your place shaking.
