The Google Home Mini is a great product for anyone. Great for anyone who likes hands free music, Google, and any other command your phone can do

Picked this up to add as a supplemental component to my existing Google tech. We have Google WiFi and an OG Google Home so this was the perfect add on for an additional way to interface with our system from adjacent room. The wife doesn't know it yet but she'll be finding one of these for her night stand in a nearby stocking very very soon. = ]

I bought this to have automation controls through voice in our bedroom as well. We have the Google Home in the living.
The only negative I see is that the two devices are not synced up. I have to setup them up individually. I have not spent a lot of time looking into this, so it might be something that I am not doing correctly. For example, I can turn off some lights from the mini but the home device does not recognize the same command. This is the main reason for 4 stars instead of 5.

I love all Google products, and I expected the same sort of intelligence + prediction mechanisms in this Google Home that I'd find in the other products. It's close, but not there yet. Commands & integrations with other apps are okay, yet lacking.
Biggest complaint is having more than one of these within earshot of each other. You WILL have sync issues until the mesh software gets fixed
Still fun, though! Decent speaker, useful features, and great aesthetic.
I use it every day

Google Assistant truly shines on Google devices because they include all the features. Sound is kinda lacking, but it's really worth the price!

Search capability is great, but I opted to stay with mi echo dot since the google home mini doesn’t have an audio out jack. Total deal breaker.

I’ve enjoyed quality products for over 20 years from a reputable store where the staff is always friendly and willing to you get what you want and stands behind their top of the line products. Thank you Best Buy.

I like the interface that I get with this tech. It pairs well with my nest thermo and I use this product daily for many different tasks like playing music to setting timers, to getting info from the web. I love that I don’t have to type a question and can just ask the mini it it responds accurately.

I like that it's small. I'm not crazy about the color but my daughter does. This was pretty easy to set-up too.
