My mother loves it! She uses it mostly as a speaker but connected her Samsung to it and loves how easy it is to turn her tv on without her tv remote

Thought I would try something new and get into making my home "smart" and so glad I did. The Google Home Mini is a perfect device/assistant. It works seamlessly with Google services as expected. If you are a Google/Android power user as myself, this device is a must have!!!

We bought this to put in our daughters room since we have other Google Homes in other rooms of our house. The color went really well in her room and was better than just a standard grey. We love the voice features and it's nice to be able to play music or control smart plugs without having to access another Google Home in another room. It's also nice to be able to ask the time, check the weather, or make a hands free phone call if needed. These are handy little devices and I'm finding it useful to have them in almost every room.

I bought the original Google Home on Black Friday last year. It has been a solid companion. We wanted to move the Google Home into the kitchen, so we we decided to get a Mini for the bedroom. It works just as well as the Home, with a lower-quality (as expected) speaker. There are some Google Assistant features that would make it even more useful, so I'm giving 4/5 for now.

These make life very convenient. You can control your smart devices, play music, ask Google assistant questions... And they take up no space whatsoever.

I really like the small size and it fits perfectly on my bedside table. It is great to listen to music at night and just speak a command to stop it.

Very easy to program. I was able to connect it to our Nest thermostat in a few steps unlike the "Alexa" module which is giving me problems trying to connect to it.

I'm not an audiophile, but I've been impressed with the sound quality for such a small little speaker. Easy to setup and use.
