Functionality of the 1st and 2nd generation speakers are identical. The only visible difference is the size of the plug housing.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Nest Mini is an improvement upon the first-generation Google Home Mini device in a handful of ways. It has improved sound, added wall mounting capabilities, hears better, learns most common music and smart home commands (US only), and gets faster over time. The first and best Google Home to get depends on your preference and needs.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They are nearly the same: same size and features. The Gen 2 has a round slot for regular power adapter while the Gen 1 has a micro USB slot for powering and could therefore be powered in more ways. Gen 1 had some issues with bricking (mine did, ended up in the trash and replaced it with Gen 2) so I’d go for Gen 2.
