Google mini looks good in living room and mic is able to pickup our voice from 15 to 20 feet and audio is pretty clear. I wish it had audio out to external speaker.

Like the small design compared to Echo Dot! Can change the voice to male so it does not sound like Alexa. Between both Amazon and Google, Amazon still has the edge.

We got this for my son to use in his bedroom for music, for an alarm clock, and for a Google enabled device. It works perfectly in all 3 areas. As an alarm clock, it is loud and easily programmed. The music sounds really nice, though I wish there were volume buttons on the top for parents to use. It also answers all of his questions. I am glad we bought it for him.

I loved the bigger one so much I decided to get these as gifts....I can't wait to use the broadcast feature --- so much better than shouting or texting my kids ;-)

I’ve owned this mini for nearly one month. I am impressed by this very small electronic device. I’m still learning its operation but it was really easy to setup for a lady 65+. I purchased two for myself (one upstairs one downstairs) and one for my son and one for my daughter. They are also happy with the mini. I hope to add additional electronic devices soon.

Smarter than Echo Dot

This device has better sound than Echo Dot and is much "smarter". It recognizes different voices and integrates with many more apps. I love pairing it with the Chromecast for a great TV experience. I got another one free with a Nest Hello doorbell camera, and the Mini announces when someone is at the door - and who it is since Nest does facial recognition. Crazy awesome tech!

Good for news and weather and quick searches. Without home automation setup can't really take full advantage of the device. Buthas music and few other fun features

It is taking a while to find out what Google Home can do. A few things I have asked it, it told me it cannot do. But I like the way I can connect it to other devices! I think I will enjoy it as we get to know each other better! (Yep, I know I am being anthropomorphic!
But, hey...I've never had a device that speaks to me, plays music I want to hear, etc.!!!

I installed this in my mother's home.
She loves being able to ask Google to play classical music, turn on her lights, turn on her television. It even tells her what the day is the weather outsdide and the time. We can add all of her appointments on there with reminds and Google will tell her everyday what her certain reminds are, it's her new best friend
