Great as a pair
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased another one, and I set up as a pair of very good sound a lot better Than one by itself. Very nice to add to the ecosystem when you set them up as a group awesome. If you have a Google hub max, you can have that playing your music and use the pair together. Awesome fantastic set up.

I would recommend this to a friend doesn't play two channels stereo over bluetooth
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Upon trying it, I realized it was playing one "channel" of the song over bluetooth. So for example, if a song breaks vocals into one channel and instrumental into another, you will not hear the song as it was intended. I noticed that the Google Home does the same thing. However over streaming service such as Spotify, both channels of the song are merged as they are played over the speaker (for a more "as intended" experience). The thing is, I like the option to play my own music rather than wifi streaming services. I thought about getting two of these to get the "full stereo experience", but really was looking for the one speaker solution so I balked at that.

The hub is better
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have this setup next to my bedside. In hindsight i kind of prefer the nest hub to the speaker because i can never remember all the commands so having the screen to be able to do things is nice. but this gets the job done all the same

Nest Audio
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is very good, however reliability of the google app is very poor. If google ever fixes the home app these speakers would be very good, until then be aware these speakers are just OK.

Marked Improvement in Sound Quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am all in for the Google Smart Speakers. I have a display or speaker in every room. When a friend complained that they missed having radio stations in their kitchen, I suggested this product. I purchased it, set it up and they couldn't be more thrilled. They like it for the radio stations, but they are learning to love it for the smarts. Also, looks good in the room and sounds great

Posted .Hi there, Jimmy. Thanks for your feedback about your Nest Audio, and we're sorry to hear you've experienced difficulties.
We understand how frustrating it can be when a product doesn't live up to expectations, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused.
We suggest trying these steps that can help improve your experience:
- For sound quality, we recommend ensuring your Nest Audio is placed away from walls and other objects that could obstruct sound. You can also adjust the equalizer settings in the Google Home app to personalize the audio experience.
- For connectivity, please check that your Nest Audio is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your other devices, and that the network signal is strong in the area. You might also try restarting your router and Nest Audio.
- For pairing issues, it's important to follow the pairing instructions in the Google Home app carefully. If pairing still fails, please try resetting your Nest Audio to factory settings and attempt pairing again.
If these steps don't resolve the issues, you can contact our support team through the Google Home app or by visiting https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Definitely glad I updated
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had and loved the original Google Home since week 1 and wasn't sure an upgrade was needed. But apart from how pretty this is, the reviews uniformly said the sound was much better, and it's true. Even if I didn't use G Asst, a castable speaker with this level audio is unbelievable for $99. It made holiday music fill the house! I have a battery-operated base for my original, so that moved to another space. One star off because I still can't move through songs with touch features; asking for the next song 10 times to advance an album or playlist is not optimal.

Posted .Hi NuDogD, it's great to hear that you love our Google Nest devices. We do apologize for the offline connectivity issue you are having with Nest Audio.
There are a couple of reasons that may be causing the offline issues you are experiencing with Nest Audio. Here are some recommended steps you can try that can prove to be helpful with the issue:
- Check for possible congestion in your Wi-Fi network. Removing some of your connected devices can help free up some bandwidth space. You may then check to see if you will still experience the same connectivity issue.
- You may also check for possible sources of interference such as the thick walls and appliances in your home.
- Resetting Nest Audio is also a good idea to try out. This process will erase all data and you may need to set up your account again. To reset, check out this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7073477
