Mmmm nah....
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker is fine but the cloth gets dirty and it’s not like you can easily clean it. I don’t recommend it. Go with something else that just has smart functionality. Like try Sonos. Refurbished it’s the same price and better quality.

Posted .Hi ThatGuyD, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We´re sorry to hear of your disappointment with the cloth for your Nest Audio Speaker.
Here are some helpful tips to care and clean your Nest Audio Speaker:
- Unplug the device and power adapter before cleaning, during lightning storms, or when unused for extended periods of time. Do not clean your device while it is powered as this may cause injury or damage to your device.
- Avoid solvent and abrasive material that may cause damage to the product surface.
- Do not use any chemical detergent, powder, or other chemical agents (such as benzene) to clean the device or accessories.
- Exposure to makeup, chemicals, and dyed materials such as denim can stain light colored devices.
- To clean your device, we recommend gently wiping it with a soft, lint-free cloth. Use a dry cloth to remove streaks, smudges or dust.
- To disinfect your Nest Audio Speaker, you can use ordinary household disinfecting wipes or 70% isopropyl alcohol-based wipes. Don’t use wipes that have bleach.

Posted .Hi there, thanks for posting your feedback about the Nest Audio, and we’re sorry to learn that you have trouble getting it to sync with your Hue lights.
If you're unable to control your Philips Hue light bulbs via voice commands through Google Nest or Home speaker or display, we suggest trying the following steps that might help:
- Connect your mobile device to the same Wi-Fi network that your speaker or display is connected to.
- Make sure your speaker or display and Philips Hue bridge are on the same Wi-Fi network.
- Make sure you're using a mobile device that has the same Google Account that is currently linked to your speaker or display.
- Make sure you're using the same Google Account as the primary account from within the Google Home app.
- Verify Philips Hue light bulbs are linked in the Google Home app.
- If your lights don't appear, force close the Google Home app and try again.
If your Philips Hue light bulbs are still not listed under “Devices” then follow these steps to relink your account.
- Go to the Philips Hue mobile app and confirm you're able to control your lights via the Philips Hue mobile application.
- Try the following voice command word-for-word: “Hey Google, turn on the lights.”
We understand that you’re thinking about returning your Nest speaker because of this issue. But if you’re willing to consider using it, we’d be more than glad to provide you with services and support here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Not impressed
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Junk. Not nearly loud enough. My 5 year old Bose Soundlink blows it out of the water. 0-50% volume is all but useless. My phone speaker is louder. This thing is either defective or Google knows how to "filter" the reviews...

Crippled Device
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Google apparently stole some of the tech from Sonos, so now the group speaker functionality is broken. I only bought these speakers for that function. Also, I got 3 of these and one of them had to be returned because it wouldn't stay connected to the wifi.
