Customer Ratings & Reviews

Picked up a Google Nest from Best Buy and couldn’t be happier. The staff helped me choose the right one for my home, and setup was simple and fast. It works great with my other smart devices and makes everyday stuff like adjusting the thermostat or checking the weather super convenient. Best Buy made the whole experience smooth from start to finish.

Excellent sound quality and integrates into our existing setup well. Perfect for our master bedroom!

Overall the sound quality is decent but not as good as some Bluetooth portable speakers out there with similar size It is worth $50 Also it doesn’t support casting from YouTube. It is supported through YouTube music app. It should support from YouTube.

Good sound quality. I bought this to connect to Gemini— Still haven't figure out how to get it working correctly. Good speaker though.

It was a very useful and life altering device! I use it for a lot of my life routines and day to day uses. It has great connectivity options with other smart home tech and it even has absolute ground breaking audio for in home use for median to larger sized room. I don’t know if I could do with out it tbh and would love to get another.

Great sound quality in comparison with Nest Mini for a reasonable additional cost; also looks nice and is generally convenient to use. YouTube Premium is a useful supplement for streaming. I had mixed feelings at first about having a front-firing driver (speaker) instead of top-firing in the Mini, but it has worked out fine where I ended up positioning it in the room. There are a few quirks in Google Home including coordination of multiple Nest audio devices, but they are tolerable, and I think eventually the system will be fully streamlined.

I have Google as my start home system and I have a Nest Hub Max, and a Nest Mini speaker as the main voice control devices. I saw this speaker on sale for 50% off, so I bought two of them. Now I can cast music too all my google speakers as a surround sound system in my dining room. The speaker is more responsive to voice command comparing to the Hub. They are good speakers for average need. If you want a full blown immersive sound system with a log o adjustments, these are not the ones. But for average everyday use, smart home control, these are excellent.

google delivers amazing sound with massive bass and pretty loud volumes. it connects with all your subscription music services, and can do anything your smart assistant can. it does not have any issues with your phone assistant because it takes over and does as you command. works flawlessly with the google nest smart home thermostat, and all my other smart home devices. I liked it so much i went back for a second one for another room. Much more responsive and accurate than amazon alexa devices.

I waited 2 years to buy these. Kept thinking they’d come out with a new model or someone would post a pretty annoying issue. Which btw, when you disable the mic on the speakers there is an annoying ORANGE LIGHT that is always visible. So if you wanted to just Bluetooth audio and not worry of the always listening google overlords, you can’t without a bright Orange light. Anyways, the sound is great, but the sound is awesome with 2. Typically the case with a lot of speakers, they sound better in pairs. These go on sale twice a year. Wait for the sale and buy 2

Good looking unit with terrific sound for such a small device. Very easy to set up.

It's better than the gen 1 Google home. It sounds better, it hears better, and it does for the Google home is supposed to do.

Works and sounds great. Use it almost everyday. Only reason for less than 5 stars is that it's not super easy to connect. The other issue, mostly my own for not researching better, is that I can't just connect via Bluetooth. Brought it camping thinking we could chill with some good music and could only chill... No music.

We used to struggle with the Nest MIni hearing us when the music was playing above 50% volume, but this hears us much easier so we’re not having to scream from 20 feet away to turn down the volume. Sound output is also much better. The low end has the biggest increase in sound quality compared to the mini. For $50 it was definitely worth the upgrade.

Sound quality is noticably better than old Google Home or obviously the Nest Mini speakers or Nest Hub Mini. Really wish they would bring back the big Google Home Max speaker for actually impressive sound, as this still can't begin to compete with the likes of Sonos/Bose/etc. The Google Assistant however has stagnated and doesn't feel like it's improved at all over the last 5 years or so, which is disappointing when buying a new product. But it's a solid product overall and if you're into the Google Home ecosystem it's a no-brainer recommendation.

Very nice sound and easy setup. Better than the Google Mini it replaced.j

I would highly recommend those Speakers. The sound,quality and the ease use of bass .I am having them around my house just wonderful and relaxing to listen to my favorite music.

Love these speakers! I have six of them in the house so I can play my music loud. $50 is a great price...thanks Best Buy.

Our Nest Smart Speaker works in stereo with our display, and the music sounds much better. Easy to set up and works great.

Great loud sound and exceptional quality. Great value for the price

This speaker is one of my favorite possessions. I use it for everything. I ask tens of questions a day, I have background music going at almost all times, and I use it to control my smart devices. It's a wonderful smart speaker. Easy to set up, and works well. It can understand me well, and does a good job answering my questions. I prefer this to the amazon echo.
