I have both the google home mini and the amazon dot.
I by far love the google home better because you can customize voice commands using IFTTT. Amazon dot is unable to sent text messages.
Google home mini is also convenient to let you know what traffic is like before heading to work and what weather is going to be like just with a simple phrase. It's also good at setting timers and reminders and shopping list.

Pretty loud for its size, I turn it down a lot. So far I’ve connected the doorbell, tstat, and sprinkler controll to it. Pretty neat for a free device I got from purchasing A Nest Hello.

So far my husband and I are really enjoying the google home mini. It is easy to set up and doesn't take up much space. I love the shopping list and recipe features. When I have her read recipes while I am cooking it goes through step by step and lets me go back if needed.

Google Home Mini impressed me so far. The speaker is more deep and louder the competition.

I purchased this item to use as a speaker for my bedroom. Surprisingly, the small speaker is able to fill the entire room and the microphones are extremely responsive. I was also pleasantly surprised at how responsive the device is. Every time I say, "Hey Google" the Google Home Mini always responds.

First the speaker is not that loud, but it's a mini, so it should be used in a place that does not have much background room. I have one in my bathroom, room, and a larger Google home in my living room now. This mini is perfect for playing a bedtime Playlist or telling you the news when you wake up.

Good speaker and music sounds great. Has some issues, but not enough that it makes a difference. The other thing is that it is small and discrete.
