Customer Ratings & Reviews

This is an excellent piece of tech. I never really realized how convenient it would be to just say "Hey, Google" when I'm chilling on my couch and get weather, work definitions, commute info, etc. I have even tried some long strings of commands, such as "Hey, Google, play the latest video from iJustine on YouTube on Living Room", and it nails it like a champ. The phone calls are very convenient as well. Sounds great on my end, sounds like I am on speaker on the other end. The quality when playing music is a bit lacking, but all voice sounds great on it. Definitely a buy at this price point.

Thought I would give a smart speaker a try. Bought this because of the great price. I use it for reminders, listening to podcasts and music in the kitchen. Does all the same things Google assistant does on my phone. Glad I bought it.

It is easy to set up but is a but underwhelming in its abilities. Seems like it would be fine if you have lots if smart home stuff for it to control but it isn't really good at responding with answers to anything but basic questions.

Now i can have a few in spare rooms and be able to hear music, control my home automation or use for scheduke updates on my calendar. Great addition to my home.

love the google home, and the mini is great value for the money, small and easy to hide. sounds great for its size too. (way better thank the competing options)

Use it a lot for playing music at home. Easy to setup with a google email account. It's great for a gift for the price. The sound is ok for being a little speaker, but it can be connected wirelessly with a sound bar or home theater.

For the price you can't beat it. Music is clear and crisp. It's bass is a little weak so go with the bigger one if you really need to. Otherwise great product.

Easy set up. I have mine set up in the kitchen. I use it to set timers and make hands-free phone calls and listen to Spotify! Decent sound for a small speaker!

I love it!! It's a personal assistants in your own home and the Google home mini can basically help with any schedule or reminders around the house it's simple and for a descent price!! And the Google home mini will improve in time

This is an amazing speaker for its size and looks, it integrates well with your home and. Looks great too. Add to all this the power of Google, the source of most of the information we know, and you have a mighty little assistant.

There are other smart speakers on the market, but none comes close to the google home. It crushes the competition in voice recognition and understanding your sentences (artificial intelligence). Google's deep mind AI system is light years ahead of the crowd. This little guy sits in the sweet spot of price and function. Want to hear your music on better quality speaker? You can actually have google home forward all music to any network speaker or any speaker connected to a google chromecast speaker or device. I have mine forward to my Sony SRS-ZR7 speakers which are network connected. Works like a charm. The non-mini google home costs substantially more and doesn't sound much better. I use my google home mini speakers in almost every room of my home. They control my smart lights (hue), my thermostat (nest), my home automation devices (samsung smarthings) which controls things like my motions sensors and my locks. I also control my home theater system through my logitech harmony hub. Just sit down and tell my system what movie to play. It turns down the lights and starts up my entertainment system and begins the movie requested. Everything begins and ends with this device. Ask it what time it is, what the weather is, or any common question you'd ask google.com.

Bought two of the Google Home Minis for my father with the idea that he would use them as speakerphones, as he's hard of hearing. They work great for that purpose and the speaker sound quality is much better than I would have expected in such a small size. The only problem is that Google Home does not yet allow for the Home service to receive incoming calls, despite the fact that he has a Google Voice account/number. So, one star docked for lack of functionality that should be standard. Bought these for $29 each during Black Friday sale, and also received two $10 Best Buy gift cards. So, net price was $19 each. Used the cards to buy the new, heavily advertised Philips One Blade electric razor, which is a winner. 2 Google Home Minis and One Blade for $60 equals one pretty sweet deal.

Only bought it because it was a black Friday price.$29.99..Didn't realize how much I would use it. Setting alarms, calander reminders, timers & phone calls... I wish when i ask it what my next reminder is, it would just tell me that one instead of giving me several for that day. If I try to delete a reminder it goes through the list, then ask which one. It would be great just to tell it what one to delete. Love that it tells me how long the commute is to work when asked. I like that you can set the volume level by saying hey Google set volume at 5, or you can say 50 percent. It is really loud on max volume, but still very clear! Just learning what the capabilities are. I am definitely using it more than I thought I would. I went to BestBuy 3 days later & purchased one for my daughter.

So far set up was simple. Works with all previous items and google home was a snap. Would love 2 have 2 more. Maybe while on sale? Anyhow works for my needs.

I'm very happy with my Google Mini. It was so easy to set up. It easily understands everything I say. The sound quality from this little device is fantastic.

Works the same as the big brother version but without the bigger sound but for assistance work just as well and with the TP link bulb $15 kasa its a good buy

This is much better at recognizing you voice than the Echo dot. It's also better than the regular google home because it's cheaper and there isn't much of a difference besides that the google home is louder than the google mini.

Have a google home and it’s AMAZING. so why not get the Mini for another room?? What a great idea. I’m a little beside myself with how awesome the little speaker is. Really. You’re not going to run a party off it, but it sounds like a little high quality radio, with great range and it gets pretty darn loud. No problem there. I’m ordering more for other rooms. Bought Alexa Dots last year. Meh. Already used this Mini more in 3 days than those 2 Dots after a year. $29 at Best Buy plus u get a $10 card. I’ve bought glasses of wine that cost more. Would I recommend this?? F*** YEAH

This product is good, easy to use, add integrated into my smart home perfectly. This, along with my regular Google Home, makes communicating at home easier.

Hands down the Google Mini is superior. It will search the web to find you an answer to a question. Alexa doesn't. I wanted to know how much it cost to ride a cable car in San Francisco. Alexa was stumped. The Google Mini searched the web and gave me a very complete answer and even told me the hours the cable cars operated.The Google Mini calls me by my name and works seamlessly with my Samsung Galaxy Note. I have to say that I am quite impressed by the well rounded usefulness of the Google Mini. Poor Alexa will play our Amazon Music because its tied to it, but little more than that now that Google Mini is here. If I were to compare speakers I'd say they sound about the same. The larger Echo by Amazon does sound better than the Google Mini, but that's not a fair comparison.
