Small, powerful and responsive. This is our second Google Home powered device and it has performed on par with our other full sized device. Simple functions fully hands free operation and decent sound quality. The included cable is a good 6 feet long and more than enough to place in good distance from an outlet. The only drawback to this device is that there is no battery backup to allow for free movement. Connectable to our existing Google, Nest smart device ecosystem with options to set up key phrases to perform operations with other connected devices.

I have it rigged to my other google/vizio speakers, and I am always satisfied how my phone will always connect. I never have problems with it lagging or not connecting to this home mini like I do with the main 5.1 channel stereo or bass. It packs a good sound to it for such a small device. I don't have it set to listen for 'ok google' or even to the internet, as I'm odd with my data like that... But, for my purpose, I enjoy it. I give it 4/5 instead of 5 for the fact that these devices probably are doing some listening in on you. My dev buddy made some of the apps that tie into the home mini/google home and even he flips the switch to keep it from listening in. Sooo if that's not telling, I don't know what is.
Also, I received this from BB for free for buying smart lights. Best things in life are free. As long as you use Google Play, or pay for Youtube Music, or even Free Pandora or Spotify, you can connect to the home mini. I recommend it as a cheap 'satellite' speaker for a sound system with VIZIO/Google connected devices.

I like the price of the mini, even though the speaker isn't as good as a full-sized Home.

We love our Google Home Mini. So much so that we now have 3. Listen to the news, get the weather, listen to your Spotify play lists etc. Set up is fairly easy and they take up hardly any space. Sound quality is decent for such a small speaker.

My fiancee got me a Google Home Mini for Christmas in 2017. I love it so much, I decided to purchase 2 more for the house. Very convenient. I can listen to music, ask questions, plan my day, set timers, reminders, etc. Great little gadget for only $25!

If you have one or more of the other Google Products like the chromecast this little thing works great. The $20 discount makes it a better choice
