    Got this to replace our echo dot that I felt was lacking when asked questions. I miss the ability to play prime music, but overall I am happy with the switch. Google is able to answer most of our questions. I am glad that I purchased this, and would do it again.

    This mini is just mini in size but does big tasks. From telling you the weather to playing songs, playing youtube videos on smart TV (via chromecast) to making calls from your contact and giving you web info about many things. Sound is decent enough to fill a room. But don't expect a big very good bass. There is a new version of this device with better bass and a wall mount option now.

    I initially had bough the Echo Dot. I decided to switch to google after asking a few questions to Echo. Google mini is definetely smarter (in terms of voice and semantics recognition).

    I'm loving this little gadget. It packs really great sound for something the size of a fist. It's responsiveness is awesome and so is her attitude!! Connecting it was a breeze as well.

    Best when you are trying to smarten up the house. I got all my light switches and doors locks and thermostats linked. It’s even better when you got google music linked or like Spotify.

    I purchased 4 of these speakers to cover my home. Voice commands are pound for pound top tier on the market. Easy to use and I'm excited for any future updates on the Google home mini.

    I bought this to have in my bedroom. It's great and love the size and the sound is better than I thought it would be. The manual controls are a little hard, have to tap the side a few times to get it to work. But I do plan to buy more for other rooms in my house.

    Overall great features of the normal Google home but much smaller for smaller spaces like night stands or small shelves. Not the big sound of the original but works great in bedrooms.

    Already got a Home from Best buy last Christmas. This year, i got two home minis for the upstairs. Works just like the home. I like Google over the Echo. I also own a Tap and two Dot.

    Like having Google Home Mini to use while I am getting ready for my day. Getting calendar events, add and listen to reminders, etc. Makes me feel more prepared for my day. I have a Google Home in the main room, but the mini was a great way to expand the system.

    For the black friday price of $30, this little device is a great buy. I enjoy asking it questions throughout the day. I also enjoy using it to play music from my google music account.

    For such a small package it has been a great addition to the house. Also a great surprise was that it recognizes my husband and child's voices too. We are having a lot of fun with it.

    Bought it for my grandson. Best on the market. The Google data base is unsurpassed. Fidelity when playing music is quite good for such a small package. All in all, a steal of a deal.

    Google Mini provides a simple and useful voice assistant - just don't expect too much music sound quality for such a small speaker - but overall a great deal at BBY for the holidays, plus got a bonus egift card making this a very budget friendly smart speaker.

    I have both the Amazon Dot and the Google Mini and the Mini sound quality is noticeable. Of course it's not the Echo or the Google home, but it does it's job and looks good doing it.
