    Great Speaker, Google Assistant hit and miss

    My most common use case is asking about the weather or playing music, which it does a great job at. The Google Assistant has usually been very good at providing helpful answers, but it can sometimes be a pain, not responding to a command that worked the previous day, for example. This odd behavior is somewhat normal for all of the assistants though, so its not like there is much of a better option out there. Works great if you are in the Google ecosystem.

    • Brand response from Nest Support
      Posted .

      Hello there, JNorris. We appreciate your feedback on Nest Audio, and we’re glad that you find it useful and great with your Google ecosystem. We hear your concern about the performance of its Google Assistant.

      Being specific with your query will help you get better responses. Make sure the Nest speaker recognizes your question correctly. Ask the same question to see if you will get the same answer. Alternatively, retraining your Nest Audio with the Voice Match can improve your experience, especially if you have other family members sharing your device. Here’s how:
      - Open the Google Home app on your mobile phone or tablet.
      - At the top right, tap your account.
      - Verify that the Google Account shown is the one linked to your speaker. To switch accounts, tap another account or Add another account.
      - Tap Assistant settings > Voice match > Add devices.
      - Make sure any devices you want to link your voice to are checked.
      - Tap Next, I agree.
      - Follow the in-app steps.
      - To get your personal information, you must turn on Personal results.
      - Tap I agree and proceed with the Voice match setup.
      - To invite others to set up a Voice Match for tailored results, tap Invite, choose your communication method, and send the invite. To skip this step, tap No, thanks.

    Amazing speakers, we got 2 and the stereo set up is really food. I only think it’s worth buying while it’s on sale though, we got it at $50 each during black friday

    Bought for my parents because their old google home mini was slow. The device hears you pretty well and does what it is built to do efficiently. Great quality audio as well.

    Easy setup. Sound is good for a $50 google speaker and assistant. No complaints. Not audiophile quality but really decent sound. Not extremely loud but loud enough.

    Perfect Living room smart speaker

    The speaker is a perfect balance between a Bluetooth speaker for home and a smart home device. Being a Google assistant but also acting as a speaker to play songs with some more bass and usual smart home assistants this is perfect for a living room setup.

    Great little speakers

    This speaker packs a punch for its size. I own two of these. along with other variations of google speakers and this one is right up there for clarity and quality with the google home max that was sadly discontinued. Would buy again if looking to upgrade my smaller speakers. I have not tried to pair them into stereo but I am assuming they will sound even better than a single!

    The little speaker gives a pretty decent sound considering it's size. Very responsive to voice commands. Caught it on sale plus had $15 in rewards so $35 for this was a great deal!

    Good sound, and I like that it pairs with other speakers for stereo and for speaker groups. Not as good or as useful as a Sonos Play:1, but will be significantly better if they decide to let it work with a Chromecast or TV.

    The sound in this slightly larger Nest Audio is fine. As long as you are not looking for an immersive sound experience this smart speaker is good plus simple to set up and easy to use.

    Much larger and heavier than the Google Nest Mini. Nice upgrade! Works great with Google Home app (for family member with speech issues) or voice recognition commands.
