    Puts The Smart in Smart Speaker

    Sound is clear, and voice recognition is accurate. The smart interactions are fairly solid, with many topics forming actual conversations. The Google Assistant can use context from the previous question and result to answer new ones without having to start all over.

    This is a much better sound all around than the predecessor. Has more bass and get balance on sound. Google Assistant is awesome! Best efficient and quick to respond. Great job Google.

    We picked up two of these for our 1,600SQFT Open concept Office. We were replacing a 3 Google Home Mini setup. These things sound amazing. The sound is richer and fills the space with music, without being super loud. If you are looking to upgrade, these are worth it.

    Great sounding speaker, even better when paired with a second one. The sound is above average, not SONOS, but they are a close second place. If you are familiar with Google Assistant ecosystem, then you probably know what can be done. Great smart speakers!

    This is just ehh ok. It's a little better than Alexa due to not trying to spit out ads every time you ask it something, but it's been difficult to convert over due to having Ring devices and it doesn't support them.

    Seems like the product is a nice addition to my ecosystem however it just doesn't seem as good as the orginal Google home. And the volume difference between the two is very noticeable. But the bass is better.

    Much richer sound than my other "home" devices and the ability to pair two together and have real stereo is great. I was hoping for a little more overall volume, but am still very pleased with this purchase

    Upgraded my Google Home with this and like it so much, I got another one. Affordable option for music and love the new options for Google Assistant. Endless things to do with the Assistant and great quality of sound. Use mine for steaming YouTube Music and SiriusXM.

    LOVE IT BUNCHES. Great sound, responsive. Its annoying that Google repeats your commands, expecially if using unit when watch TV, in the bedroom or when company is over. Actually it is annoying all the time to hear it repeat!

    The Google Assistant is by far the best virtual assistant available. The nest audio packages the assistant in an incredibly powerful/robust speaker package. The audio quality you get from this thing is just amazing.

    The speaker sounds great for its size. Good highs and mids. Bass lacks a bit but can be adjusted in settings. Sounds even better as a stereo pair. Google Assitant is a plus and having access to major music streaming services and podcasts is a huge win.

    Got this on sale and then applied $10 in BB gift certificates. Good sound and functionality, overall. Still like my old Insignia brand speaker that shows the time and temperature, though.

    Works great. I have it in my shop to listen to music while I'm working. Uses my Sirius streaming to play my favorite stations. I just say, "Hey Google, play Willie's Roadhouse," and it works every time.

    We bought 2 of them for our bed room so we could have a them work as a pair. Didnt need 2 for that lol ONE works just fine. Sound quality is good and responsiveness of the speaker is great. Beyond that its the same as any other Google Assistant infused product.
