    Great product. Speaker is better than Alexa. It works with my Chromecast and Wemo plugs.

    Google Home is a wonderful and powerful speaker, you can ask it anything and everything. Google Assistant always has an answer for you. The Google Home Mini does everything the same with a smaller speaker but it does get loud. Do keep in mind it's a smaller speaker, so do not expect the same sound quality as the bigger Home.

    First of all the price was absolutely amazing. Got on Black Friday so it came with a 10 dollar gift card. Home mini works great and the AI is very intuitive. In afew cases better than my Alexa 1gen. I paired it with a chromecast that I also got from here and worked fantastic. Also gives me the ability to turn on my tv which is cool. 2 main problems. Sound is not great. But for the price and size. That’s ok. In relation to the first problem. There’s no aux port. Like 2gen echo products. Bummer but that’s ok. Overall a must have for a smart home.

    The Google talking person is easy to train and hears real good. I set this up in my living room I can tell her to do something from my bedroom and she hears me from there. Only problem I've encountered was one night I was watching a home shopping channel on TV and the host told a google product to send a text to someone, my unit responded that she couldn't find that person on my contacts list. I laughed.

    The search assistant is really cool and works almost for any query. The integration with Youtube and Chromecast is the best part that stands out from other smart speakers out there. I have a few Echo devices and I found that Google home mini does really better in answering the questions. However the microphone fails in far-field recognition and hearing us while playing music. I found Echo devices being more responsive in this. Overall a really good smart speaker and you won't regret the purchase especially with the special holiday pricing.

    Love this product! Great compact design, decent sound, a wealth of features. This actually sounds comparable to our amazon Tap speaker which was over twice the price. I wish I could plug this in to a set of speakers, but for $29.99 you can't go wrong. This integrates so well with our smart switches and my google account!

    I bought three of these over the Thanksgiving weekend and there no problem setting them up. I bought them to use with my Phillips Hue system and pairing was seamless there too. The speaker isn't the greatest but good enough for occasionally listening to music. However the microphone works really well and can pick up my voice from ~20 feet away. Overall I'm happy with it and would definitely recommend.

    I already had Alexa devices and Siri with my phone and I wanted to diversify with a Google device. This mini is great for some tasks for a Smart Home and of course for responding to questions or inquiries (i.e. weather, etc.) What I do not like is the lack of integrating what already comes with my Alexa device - Amazon music. This one requires a subscription service. Easy to setup and easy to use.

    OK. Just edged a bit closer to living in the future. - The only thing is; I feel a bit stupid having to say OK Google, or Hey Google before any command. It would be nice to be able to customize the keyword. I know Google wants you saying their name whenever and wherever possible and this is actually a software limitation, but from the users perspective, the software and hardware are a single package.

    Got this little device for $29.99 and it came with a $10 gift card. I bought 4 and put them in every room. The kids love using them for listening to music, using them for timers when doing there homework, also using the "Broadcast" feature to talk with people in different area of our home. I use them to turn on and off my smart bulbs and switches. Everyone who comes over loves them they are so useful.

    12 and counting...

    So much you can do with the Google Home Minis. I currently have 12 installed, with plans to add at least 2 more. I have multiple routines setup to control Philips Hue LED lights. Three speaker groups: one upstairs, one downstairs, and one for the entire house. I stream Pandora to as many as all 12 minis at the same time and have not noticed any sync issues, although on occasion there may be a few seconds where one will play gibberish, but returns to normal by itself in a few seconds. I also have one connected to a mobile battery pack so I can use it where it is not practical to run a power cord and it's mobile anywhere in the house. I'm probably going to do that with one or two others where cords can be a problem. I'll even be adding one in the garage to play music and allow me to broadcast messages to the entire house.
