Awesome smart speaker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well I am absolutely amazed with this quality I decided to buy one when they were on sale for about $79 and it was definitely a fantastic investment I bought three in total for different rooms of my house and I was just blown away with how well they sounded, the Google Assistant works a lot better than my Siri it just functions a lot better, also you can activate it even on high volumes which I'm surprised so it's great, also I've noticed after a few days it seems to adjust its sound quality to fit the room because it only gets better over a few days

Major upgrade over the original!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Given the recent sale I was interested to see how the Nest Audio had improved compared to my trusty Google Home. The result? A lot! The sound is much more faithful and carries much more clarity, particularly at louder volumes. The Google Home was downright muddled in comparison, something I hadn’t ever noticed! Response time is quick on commands and the updated alarm sound is pleasant. All in all a great, affordable assistant. If you’re looking to skip the screen, this is a no brainer for a home speaker for a kitchen or bedroom!

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The Google Nest Audio Smart Speaker is a great value for money for offer price of $60, if you primarily are going to use it for listening to music. It took me some time to get adjusted to volume buttons.

Great for listening music
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker is kind of loud which I like it when I listen to music. But what I don't like is that whenI try to ask Google assistance something you really need to be close to the speaker so it can pick up your voice.

Posted .Hi Kekia713, thanks for sharing your feedback on your Nest Audio. We're sorry to learn that you're experiencing some difficulties with your device's Google Assistant and how it's not picking up your voice easily. We'd recommend that you retrain your Nest Audio to better recognize your voice. We also suggest adjusting the Hotword sensitivity as it may also be helpful with the issue. You may follow the steps below:
Retrain Voice Match:
- On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app.
- At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match.
- Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain.
Change Nest Audio's Hotword sensitivity:
- Open your Google Home app.
- Select your Nest Audio.
- At the top right, tap the Settings (Gear) icon.
- Then tap Audio.
- Then tap "Hey Google" sensitivity and adjust the slider to make your Nest Audio more responsive to the Hotword.
If the issue still persists then we advise that you reach out to our support specialists so we can better identify the issue and help you with troubleshooting tips. You can contact us on our Google Help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
Solid Performer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use it mostly for music and sometimes for weather and news. I find that occasionally, the Assistant has trouble finding an album, but most of the time, it is spot on and amazingly fast. Sounds quality is just OK and the volume can be erratic at times. Still, I am happy overall with my purchase.
I would recommend this to a friendNice, but
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.These are nice speakers and work well with voice commands, but the don’t have the sound of an echo or a HomePod mini. This might be due to the YouTube Music only playing hd.

Great Improvement Over Original Google Home
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this to replace the original Google Home I've had since that one came out in 2016. Nothing wrong with that one still, but I saw this on sale and jumped at the chance for an upgrade. Nest Audio definitely delivers on better audio and seems to be more responsive in general. I like the look the of it as well and it blends into the background nicely. I'm considering purchasing a second one eventually to make a stereo pair, but overall no complaints or regrets from a regular Google Home user.

nest audio review
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great speaker for playing music. Good product that does much more than I bought it for. The only negative thing is that it is very heavy, so don't drop it on your foot.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend It’s basically just a bulkier nest mini
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the price, just buy two nest minis and create some surround sound experiences for your place for the same price with better results
