    I've had both Alexa and Google. Google by far has already surpassed Alexa. I'll do my amazon shopping through the website. Think about it. It's Google compared to Amazon. Hands down great purchase!

    Just bought the Google Home Mini and so far I really enjoy it. I'm new to smart home technology and I've felt that this product is a great start for those that want to dabble into smart technology.

    Nice product but limited utility for me

    I like the design of this product and the voice user interface. After playing with it for a while though, I don't think it has such great utility unless you are real home automation type. I don't have colored WiFi light bulbs or a WiFi controlled door lock or ... So for me, it doesn't really do anything I could do with my Android phone. I probably should get a smart thermostat and more toward voice control of my household alarm system but haven't been up for the new infrastructure costs. The small amount for the Home Mini is very minor compared to the devices.

    I got this so that I could turn off lights & turn on the fan without having to get out of bed. I'm still finding more things to use the google home mini for but it is working how I expected so far.

    The Google home mini is a good home assistant for helping you with most of your day with things like weather, traffic, reminders, etc. However, if you already have a good home or other house ai product, I'd recommend away simply because the energy home tech hasn't evolved much.

    I bought this product after reading some reviews. While I liked Alexa it different offer me the kind of info I needed. Google mini is like having a conversation with Einstein. It knows everything.

    Added this as a companion to my present Google Home. The mini was place in bedroom on the 2nd whereas Google Home is on the first floor. Both control all my Hue lights. Also I can play independent music on each device at the same time or play the same music on both devices. Or play music on either one. They work independent of each other. It was easy to install. Looking to get a 2nd Google mini for the basement.

    This is great to put in additional rooms in support of main Google Home assistant. The list of things you can do with the Home is growing day by day and this is a device that gets better with age!

    I've used this for quite a while and have been quite happy with it. I've had zero problems either in setup or operation; have never had to force a reboot by power cycling (though a few storm power losses have). The sound quality for voice (its primary use) is more than adequate. The music sound quality is good - not great - but I'd never expect great sound from such a tiny speaker. Overall well worth the investment.

    I bought this as a gift for my father. Ever since I taught him how to use it, he’s been very satisfied with it. He can ask Google anything at all, from the weather, to most of the United States History, Google tells you immediately. Google Home Mini also lets you call friends and family, play music on Pandora and much more. I’d recommend this to anyone who wants to give Google Home Mini a try, it is definitely worth it!
