Really like this little device. Still needs more device integrations, but those will hopefully come soon via a firmware upgrade (this is where it lost the star). I have 3 of these. One in my room, one in the kitchen, and one wrapped as a gift. Very useful for controlling my hue lights or verifying a measurement or recipe.

Works great. I have this and Echo Dot. I prefer echo dot since my home is already connected to that. This is more of a fun toy to put next to echo dot. If i get other home automation that doesn't work with echo then i will use this.

Nice sound and small form makes this perfect for what I need. (I understand the sound is better in the 2nd Gen)

Love this item, easy to use and install. I am thinking of buying one more for a back bedroom. Can't believe I have lived without it for so many years. Only negative is I don't like the name. I wish it had any name other than Google.

I hate to admit it but this is better than Alexa. I have both...and it seems google can answer way more things, where Alexa always say "hmm I'm not sure". I think its a great gift! Who doesn't like technology that makes life easier.

I am so enjoying my Google Home Mini. I can ask it important questions on any topic & get an instant response. It is also great as you can set any type of reminders, set alarms & ask it to call contacts from your cell phone with just a simple request. There is just so much more you can do with the Mini as well. Everyone should have one of these technological marvels in their homes & of course Best Buy is the only place to purchase at the best price. This also makes a super gift you can give anyone!

It is my first, and I do not know how are other similar products. First I think having to add Ok or Hey to the command Google its annoying. We keep forgetting to add it.The speakers are not that good, and sometimes it does not respond or simply replied by saying that it is still learning. It is good, but not that good...

We bought one Google Home and three Google Home Minis, one for each room. The family loves it. I've connected it to my Google Chrome and we love playing around with the broadcast feature. We plan on buying more to give out as gifts.

Great sound for music and helps control smart lights. Nice that it is small and discrete and not noticeable out in the open. Would buy again if I need any more.
