    Just imagine... washing up and getting in bed - you're all tucked in and your pillow is fluffed just right. Just as you are closing your eyes ... you remembered - oh no, i forgot to set my alarm 30 minutes earlier... well, don't fret because, " ok google, please set my alarm for 5:30 am" and then you hear a reply, "Your alarm has been set for 5:30 a.m.". Poof just like that youre asleep and you didnt have to move.

    The Google home mini may not be the best speaker in town but gets the job down. If synced to Spotify it'll play from your music library and almost any song you can imagine.

    Still getting it linked/setup

    The device is not as intuitive to set up as other electronics. I usually do not struggle with these things, but I have yet to be able to figure out a few features and there are very few helpful online reviews. I am able to link other programs such as Spotify, Pandora, etc, however after linking the proper tabs such as “music” do not show up where they seem like they are suppose to. Every time I ask it to play a song it tells me I need to choose a default music player, but the “music” tab that I need to go to (as listed in the instructions and online) does not exist within the app on my phone. I am sure it’ll be nice once I have it working properly, but at this time it’s a bit annoying!

    Great little device especially for a gift. Way better than the Alexa and Echo dot (I have both of those too) has more capabilities that I will actually use (unless Alexa does too and I just dont know about it). Looks better in charcoal then white.

    This technology is so fun! We started with 2, but have purchased 2 more (plus the home station). We listen to music throughout the whole house using pandora, ask google questions about any random thing that pops into our heads, and broadcast messages throughout the house to call the kids to dinner or whatever. The draw on our WiFi was a bit much so we had to upgrade - but it’s well worth it!

    This is a really cool novelty item. It has potential to be a great home connection device but I just can’t justify paying for the other connected accessories at this point.

    I was skeptical about this product at first but now I'm so happy I tried it. I've integrated a living room lamp wifi plug and connected a chromecast for streaming and the family loves the ability to turn off the lamp or play any movie by just asking the mini. The ability to add something to my shopping list the moment I realize we need it has been a life changer too. I make so many less trips to the grocery store!

    These google home minis are great to put around your house. Whether your using them to play music or asking them to find things on the interwebs, it's an amazing convenience to have. The speakers sound great and it had an amazing ability to pick up your voice and understand the commands or questions you have. Highly recommend.

    I live alone and these are my best friends. They are much better than my alexa devices. They are dependable. I use them to control all of my smart lights and outlets, and to check the weather, and for basic googling, and to play my Google Play Music collection. I'm a musician and an audio engineer and I think these sound just great!

    Google Home definitely has the edge!

    The Google Home Mini has the edge over the Amazon Echo Dot when it comes to actually answering questions and finding the right results. As for smart home capability, Google seems to have caught up in a big way to the Alexa devices. Also, it's a bit easier for me to play Spotify and such over grouped google home mini devices at my place than it is to use it with Echo Dot groups.

    Not sure if it is my wifi router or Google software, but it can be a bit finicky some times. Had to change to non-5G to stop disconnects but this is more of an issue with my router. Speaker doesnt sound all that great but that is expected considering the price. Otherwise, I am happy with the 2 that i have. Love that they can be setup to play in sync with other google speakers and products. Just really makes life a bit easier with reminders, alarms, controlling my other smart products, and just keeping me on time and on task.
