    I love my Google Home Mini. This little device is so much fun and very useful. At the price, just buy one it is well worth it.

    Didn’t expect much due to its size but it’s actually pretty awesome! Clear sound. Good looking. Does what it’s supposed to do.

    This is a neat little device and I haven't even come close to experimenting with all of its capabilities yet. Has a great speaker and understands me well, I've not had to repeat myself once.

    I enjoy the capabilities of the speaker, it's loud and clear, only downfall is sometimes I have to yell for the thing to hear me if it is playing music or turn the volume down by tapping it.

    Very handy for listening to music or asking for weather forecast. We received one as a gift and bought a second one. Love it!

    This is my 2nd Home Mini and I love it. It is great, and sets up immediately with the rest of my devices (including 2 regular Google Homes and a Pixelbook and a Pixel3). When I use voice commands, all of the devices triangulate my request and only the closest 1 answers to me, which I think is pretty smart.

    Good product, but it won’t make me leave the Echo

    Let me start by saying that I have a number of Alexa devices, including 3 of the 1st gen Echo, and couple of 1st gen of the Dot, a couple of 2d gen Dot, and a Spot. I’ve been pretty happy with them as we’ve built our Smart Home capabilities, but was interested in trying out the Google Home Mini after getting a recommendation from someone in the family. When the right sale price came along, we took the opportunity to pick one up at Best Buy. The Google Home Mini is an attractive, small smart speaker; it is really much nicer looking than both the 1st and 2d gen Echo Dot (I don’t have a 3d gen, so can’t do a side-by-side). It is very responsive; in fact, I’d say it is slightly more responsive than any of the Echo products. It “speaks” clearly, but I think the voice sounds a little more artificial than that of the Echo. In the “smarts” department, I haven’t asked it anything it stumbled over yet. I wouldn’t recommend it as a primary means to listen to music, but then I don’t find playing music on the Echo devices to be very appealing, either. They’re both fine for short periods of listening. Overall, I’m glad to have had the opportunity to try the Google Home Mini, but I don’t find enough value added to want to abandon our Echo devices. Honestly, if Google had been first out of the gate with a smart speaker, I would probably feel the same way about abandoning their products. It’s good to have choices, and I think you just have to decide which “universe” you’re most comfortable in - Google’s or Amazon’s. I don’t think you can go wrong with either at this point.

    The mini is awesome. Very good for such a little speaker. Ask for the weather, time, play music, reminders, etc. WORTH IT!

    The Google Mini is really helpful and actually saves a fair amount of time. We use smart bulbs in our house so we can turn our lights off and on with the device. Also, instead of having to look stuff up online we can get most information by asking our Google Mini. We liked it so much we bought 2 (One for upstairs and one for downstairs) and also bought one as a gift for Christmas for someone. Definitely recommend it. Also, I find the answers to be more accurate than on other devices like Alexa.

    I really like Google products. If you have a choice between this and the full size get this. I have both and prefer this one.

    Best Thing I Didn't Need

    I couldn't justify spending $129 on a Google Home, but could spend $29 on the discounted Google Home Mini without a second thought. It has replaced my phone as my alarm clock, but I don't have any other smart home devices for it to interact with, so I mainly use it to tell me the time when I wake up in the middle of the night. Other great uses are telling me about my day with some news bits after, asking for today's forecast and the current temperature, and playing Spotify with the sleep timer.

    Setup was easy. Just plug it on and open the google home app. Easy setup from there. You can link multiple accounts to this device.. There is so much you can do with this device. The sound of the speaker is surprisingly good for how small it is. I can be more then 50 feet away and will hear me when I ask for assistance.
