    Awesome little speaker! Set up was a piece of cake and it sounds great for being so small. Interfaces smartthings was also very easy to set up.

    Was late to the party with going to smart home devices but am really getting used to this little guy. Sometimes I'll have to stop and think "why not ask Google my question". Also helps that it's tied to my Hue lights and ecobee thermostat and I can play my music through it as well.

    The chalk color blends in nicely in every room. Easy to setup and connect to my existing 5 WeMo light switches and Nest thermostat (3rd gen) - I now have 5 Google Home devices through my home. My next addition will be a Logitech Harmony Hub to control my home entertainment system. Google’s voice is clear on both the full-size Home and Mini, but playing music suffers on the Mini. Google is Google... full of knowledge, capabilities, and potential. Very capable today, and I’m looking forward to future improvements via free software upgrades.

    I honestly don’t know all the functionality of this device without compromising too much on my privacy. It has a nice sound quality compare to Alexa but setting up the connections seems little more complicated.

    I purchased this item as an after Thanksgiving sale item. I admit that it was an impulse sale buy. However, after getting it home, I found that the item was easy to set up and fun to use. I like that I can get weather updates, play music and make shopping lists all from using my voice. It also functions as my Hub for the smart home that I am slowly acquiring.

    It can play music, news reports from several sources, and well as answer questions from the builtin google assistant. I use it to play news reports from several sources (ABC, NPR, BBC, etc) It can answer questions including recipe questions. It can also play radio stations or receive music cast via WiFi from your smart phones music service (E.g. Pandora) It can be controlled by voice commands or the Google Home smart phone App. Sound quality for a small speaker is good.

    Although a good product, it was beat out by the Amazon Echo Dot just because it does more of what I need it to. For some this will win. It does have good sound quality and good features, just not right for me.

    The sound of the mini is not as good as the full size google home, but does a great job, use it in the garage to get info from google search when working on the car, or to just stream music, nice addition !!!!
