    We already have a google home and decided to try the google home mini in another room. It works great love the home automation (we have done our lights and some outlets). Easy to set up and use. Lots of compatability with aftermarket accessories.

    While I have not used this item since it is a Christmas gift, the demo and explanation that I received from Wilson during my visit made all of the difference. I was torn between this and the Amazon Echo and this, in my opinion, was far superior.

    Nothing but kudos and praise for this little hockey puck. Its so convenient to turn the lights on and off, just ask Google! Want to play music? Google Home Mini can do that. It can tell you the weather, news, and so much more. highly recommended

    I had an Amazon echo dot, but decided to try the Google home mini after reading online reviews and i must say it was worth the change. It helps with a lot more and is loud enough such that a secondary sound system is not required. Great product

    This google home mini has been awesome! I received it for free with a purchase of a Nest thermostat. I have this connected to my Nest, TVs, and garage right now. Not only is there the cool feature of asking questions but I can also ask it to add items to my shopping list and then pull it up on my phone when at the store. I ask the Nest to close my garage door, change the temperature and turn on/off my TVs with the option of turning on specific shows/movies on specific apps (Netflix, HBO Now, etc.).

    Bought this to give as a gift. It’s simple, straight to the point and wonderful for someone just getting into using voice assistants. I love how it’s small but still has the same features as it’s bigger counterpart. Only difference I would say is the speaker quality but that that can easily be fixed by attaching to an external speaker.

    Works as expected. A little disappointed that it came with micro usb and not usb c but, it's going to stay plugged in so I don't care much for it. Sound is really good and it does a really good job at picking up your voice from across the room.

    Google home assistant

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I’ve had the google mini assistant for about a month now and I absolutely love it. I use it to control my lights(wemo), cameras(arlo), thermostat(nest) and then some. Setup of these devices through google assistant is via the IFTTT app and is fairly easy (just a couple of minutes per device). Additionally I use it for simple tasks like setting reminders, checking the weather etc and it works great. It has powerful microphones and can listen to me even when I’m 15-20 feet away from the assistant. The sound quality is great for response to tasks but not great if you want to listen to music on it. I believe the bigger google assistant is better suited for that.i don’t use it to listen to music so I’m okay with the speaker performance. Great product overall. Highly recommend for anybody wanting to smarten their home and routine tasks!

    Better Than Alexa

    I have a Amazon Alexa and I really think Google intelligence is much better than Alexa. In regards to the mini, it can be hard to figure out how to use the volume vs the Dot (Dot has actual buttons vs Google requires you press on the right or left side of the device), but questions asked get answered much better with Google than Alexa.

    Till now I've tried with shopping list, alarms, timer, reminder, find my phone, traffic to work, playing music, cooking helper, weather, store hours, simple math questions, asking for facts... loud and clear, white noise really helps my sleep.

    Last year I bought a full size Google Home for my living room and always wanted a second for my basement but didn't want to spend $100 so i was excited when the mini was released. It's great to be able to control my lights, thermostat, and music just with my voice.

    I have the google home in our kitchen and I have the google mini in my bedroom. They are both awesome. I can control my lights, doors and a/c from anywhere in the house. And I can get answers to my questions anywhere and any time in the house.

    I have both the Google home and Google home Mini. they both work very well and respond to questions or commands. they are not as good as beer competitors when it comes to home automation but if that's not what you're looking for this is a great product. the new compact Google home Mini can be placed almost anywhere and hardly be seen.

    The Google Home Mini is great! I was a little skeptical when I first bought it because I bought it for a speaker more than anything else. But it has a great sound and it can look up literally anything which helps a lot when I’m doing homework!

    The web flows with review of this and comparison to Alexa. If you subscribe to play music it is a non-brainer. even if you don't, there are workarounds and the value is always unbeatable. I am a semi audiophile and the sound is quite pleasing.

    I bought this because I already had the other smart home option. I was using the iOS device and it wasn't very compatible with the majority of smart home devices. So I bought this one to see which one I liked better. So far this device is my favorite as far as ease of use and compatibility with my life. I would recommend that if you are going to choose between Alexa and google to go with google. They are both decent but google works better for me and my other smart home products.
