Customers are saying

Customers are delighted by the Nest Audio's excellent sound quality, ease of use, and impressive bass response. Many appreciate its compact size and stylish design, finding it easy to set up and integrate with the Google Assistant. However, some users have experienced issues with Bluetooth connectivity and software glitches. A lack of aux input was also noted as a drawback by some customers.

    How have we gotten along this long without one. Smart speakers for every room in the house so we can link them.

    I've had the old google home speaker for a long time... upgraded to this one. Honestly, if you're only buying one... the sound isn't that much better. I'd recommend buying two and pairing them... there is a noticeable improvement in the sound that way.

    I am very please with the sound quality. It is not a show stopper in the sound department, but better than the Google Home. It does have trouble picking up female voices. Well at least my wife's :)

    The sound quality is pretty good in a single bedroom Apt. There are couple of issues after using it for a month. Randomly turns off and constantly disconnects from Google TV Chromecast

    Great improvement over the first generation Google Home. Sound quality is great for the size of the speaker and the microphone seems to pick up the hotword much better now that it has 3 microphones.

    Fantastic. Placed on either side of the bed near the wall, we get noticeable bass from these "heavy" little speakers. Be sure to boost the treble a bit in the Home app, for some sources at least.

    Got the dual pack and the surround sound feature works amazingly! Not the deepest base compared with some of my larger speakers, but certainly better than your average smart speaker and otherwise has a crisp sound.

    Purchased for my mom to be a chime for the Google Ring Doorbell. Works very well with it. Very annoying to have to say "Hey Google". We keep accidently calling it Alexa. My mom was able to set it up without me so that is a plus.

    Wonderful smart speaker. Hoping for a higher fidelity speaker from google some day as third party speakers I have tried (Sonos Five) don't have the functionality I'm looking for.

    My Nest mini would often disappear from the list of cast options plus I wanted an audio upgrade so I picked up a Nest Audio. I use it to cast my iBroadcast library and it does a great job.

    Sounds good but lacks bass, because it is small. They could've designed a better unit by incorporating a small subwoofer. But at this price point, that might be impossible.

    Needed music for my large kitchen. Bought a Google Nest Hub. Needed a speaker for the other side of the kitchen. Bought the Google Nest Audio. The 2 work really well together. Great price for a quality speaker.
