A:AnswerHi James, there is no difference in the smarts between the Nest Mini and the Nest Audio. They can do the same things, including broadcast. The only difference is the size and sound quality.
If you are looking for great sound, get the Nest Audio. If you are looking for decent quality sound in every room, get the Nest Mini. Also, note that the Nest Mini frequently goes on sale for $30.
Hope this helps!

A:AnswerI think this is a speaker just to do commands as assistant, not much of a Bluetooth speaker. I would reccomend JBL for sure if you want a Bluetooth speaker and to have more base and more in volume. This can only do so much and it’s really to just talk to it and for it to do things for you as in like turning off tv , making phone calls and etc..
A:AnswerGreat question, Lola. Yes, you can listen to the radio stations of your choice on the Nest Audio. Though, premium online radio streaming requires a subscription. It will also respond to voice commands. Here’s a guide with more details: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7071793
A:AnswerYes, you can. On the back of the Nest Audio, next to the power cord, you can toggle the mic switch on or off. Your Assistant will say whether the microphone is muted. Please note that Google Assistant will not respond to your voice commands if the microphone is on mute.
A:AnswerYes. Make sure to be specific on which speaker or display you want to stream or play content. (For example, "Hey Google, play podcast on living room speaker.") If you have multiple devices and you did not give specific command to which speaker to stream, it will play content to the last speaker you gave command to.

A:AnswerI just found mine in the front corner of the lot after the hurricane hit. It was buried in saltwater. I plugged it in and it powered right up. It's a little scuffed and the mesh on the top is gone.
A:AnswerUnfortunately, this feature is not supported. While you can pair your Nest Audio with your laptop and turn it to a Bluetooth speaker, the microphone is designed to allow you to talk to Google Assistant, make audio calls, and detect sounds (with a Nest Aware subscription in certain regions, and if you have enabled this feature).
A:AnswerThey can be used as Bluetooth speakers (say "Hey google, turn on bluetooth") and work as expected. I don't think the speakers can transmit anything to a BT device. Your audio source (phone, mic, whatever) would have to be the device sending to BT earpieces.
A:AnswerThe Nest Audio like other Google Home speakers and displays, have no internal battery. They must be plugged into a wall outlet using the included power adapter and cable.
