    Amazing speaker. Not only works with Google assistant but the sound quality is very impressive. The best part is the ability to connect to other Google speakers, which will give you the ability to create your own sound system through the house

    A step up from the original Google Home...

    As an upgrade to the original Google Home, this is a winner, with a lower list price to boot. It looks like, well, a speaker (how's that for a curve ball from Google?) It's still the same minimalist interface as the home -- lights in front and touch sensitive area on the top for adjusting volume or starting and stopping music playing. The sound is an upgrade from the original Home and is a lot more full. These can be paired, so two speakers can play stereo sound. They are louder than the original Google Home and have a more full-range sound (from low frequencies to high), although the bass isn't going to knock your socks off. During the holidays they were sold in pairs with a discount, and that's a pretty good way to set them up, as a pair. You manage the speaker through the Home application, just like all the other Home / Nest products. So if you're already using Home / Nest products, this is a super-easy upgrade. If it's your first smart speaker, this is a good way to start.

    I bought this on sale to replace a Google Home Mini in my kitchen. I was expecting improved sound over the Mini, but was pleasantly surprised by the clean bass and generally well rounded audio.

    First of all I really like the Google assistant. In combination with Gemini the assistant offers up far more information than any other AI on most topics. The sound quality and volume are good! I fully expect that this device’s capabilities will continue to improve. At this time it’s not as good at controlling smart devices but they may be my current setup.

    Has great connectivity. I've found if you are looking for a smart speaker that has quality sound without breaking the bank, and are not beholden to the amazon specific offerings (like adding things to an amazon shopping list), this is preferable for me. It also uses better natural language in my opinion than the other. Also if you're like me and like to ask your smart speaker random questions, I find the google assistant provides me more comprehensive answers.

    It's great. It's small but loaded with sound. I was a skeptic when I saw it and quicklh changed my opinion when I listened to it. If you love music and want good music with you this is for you!

    I bought to add to my other Google devices and as a music player when I'm working around the house. It's easy to set up and relatively portable (I have an Amazon Echo speaker that is much heavier). The sound quality is good and it has all of the other Google features. Finally, it works well as a Bluetooth speaker once you learn how to connect it.

    The Google Nest Audio is a fantastic upgrade from the Nest Mini. The sound quality is rich and clear—perfect for enjoying music—and it's incredibly responsive for voice commands, making home automation effortless. I bought it to replace two Nest Minis, and I’m beyond satisfied. Totally worth it

    I bought this one to replave my old Google speaker I had for years. This one works great and can be very loud if you need it to be. I have had zero issues so far. It is much larger than my last one from google and wish it was a bit smaller, but I would still recommend this to anyone looking for this type of speaker for their home.

    Great sound, easy and fast setup. Speaker groups works way better than Alexa. No sound drop outs like I was getting with Echo and finally I can do Youtube Music to speaker groups! Looks sleek and matches home décor well.
