Ever since Christmas last year we have been gradually transforming our home into a smart home. The Google Home mini has certainly helped us out. Just got the basement finished and we were able to apply this down there. Can sync them together. Thumbs up!

Although it is the first generation model, it doesn't lack much from the new version. Amazing sound quality when listening to music and good sound pick up from the microphones giving simple tasks and commands. If u are looking for an excellent home assistant device this is the one. It understands the "common" tongue much better than the Alexa. This is a must have!

I recently began purchasing several Google Home Minis along with the Google Home Display throughout my house. All devices successfully connected without conflicts. These little guys are great to play music throughout the whole entire house. These were on sale 2 for 50$ a great price for them. Highly recommend going with Google Assistant if you are thinking about getting into the smart home devices.

Hey Google - turn Christmas tree on! This simplified everything from that to simple math, reminders, calendar events, weather and how long it will take to get to work. Love it!

It is very useful for day to day activities & updates and having nice time conversing and chating with Home Mini. Connected to Smart plug which is fun controlling home devices.

I have various Google Home products throughout my house, and the Mini provides the "best bang for the buck", in my opinion. It does all the same basic stuff as the bigger, more expensive, Google Home device but lacks the excellent sound quality you get with the bigger device. If you are simply looking to control some other smart devices with it, grab a few and place them around your house. They are great for this. If you want to use them for music playback, expect to be underwhelmed and wanting the regular Google Home or the Home Max.

I wasnt sure if I should get the regular Google Home, but the price on the mini was good....turns out that the functionality of both are the same minus a louder speaker (which i dont need), and a wider range wifi receiver (which wasnt a problem for me)

Bought google home for bigger rooms like living room and these for garage and guest room. "Ok Google" now controls everything in my home from doorbell to lights to thermostat.
