    This complements my Google Home very well while not taking up a lot of space. It just blends in. Now I don't have to go to another room to ask Google to do something.

    Best part you can tell mini to play any song, you don’t have to go to laptop to start you tube or ask about weather. My kid is asking only about jokes. I wish it should be working when I am moving mini one place to other. This is a drawback.

    Even if you don't have a smart home I would recommend this product. For the price, it's simply a great speaker to have in your house for music. The sound quality exceeded my expectations playing Spotify. Sounds much better than the Echo Dot. It's also nice to get weather or traffic updates before we head out of the house. It also makes it easy to set reminders and alarms. Great, easy to use, product!

    It does everything you expect it to do. However I don't see why you have to buy a subscription to other services to play specific songs when I can just YouTube it anywhere else fine. But it's nice and entertaining. Kids love it. It's great.

    Life is getting better with assistants

    We already own an Amazon Echo & Dot, so I wanted a Google Home Mini on another floor to control Hue lights, and to compare with the Echo. They are basically the same and all work well. The speaker on the Mini is better than the speaker on the Dot, and the microphone on the Mini seems to be better at picking up voice in a noisy room. Where the Home Mini excels is with questions you would ask Google search engine, including questions about traffic and distance, and general trivia, etc. It often takes Echo several tries, asking in different ways until a question is clear enough for the machine to understand. But the Home Mini usually gets it right away, and responds quicker (probably due to Google's experience with search engine and voice recognition technology.) For stuff like this, the Google product is great. Initial integration with my Philips Hue lights and my Logitech Harmony was easier on the Amazon devices, and as I recall, Amazon didn't ask for as much personal info as the Google Home setup requires. I eventually figured out how to integrate Hue & Harmony with my Home Mini, but it wasn't nearly as intuitive as integration with the Amazon devices was. The Home Mini does seem quicker to change my lights (on/off, colors, dimming), than the Echo or Dot, though. Having devices like this makes normal everyday mundane (and yes, easy) tasks like turning lights and TV on/off, changing TV channels and light colors, and setting timers/alarms even EASIER.

    I've got Google homes all through my house. I love that I can listen to music and synch it across the speakers. I also love being able to tell it what to do remotely.

    If you like personal assistant devices, this one is really useful. We use it in combination with Chromecast and now our transformation to couch potatoes is complete.

    I bought four of these little guys to put around the home for my elderly mother. She enjoys streaming music on them and asking for the time and weather. She also uses them to turn on and off the Philips Hue smart-lights that I bought together with these devices. I would recommend the Google Home Mini to anyone looking to find a smart device for a reasonable price.

    Very well built and the sound quality actually exceeded my expectations. The Google Assistant however still seems like a work in progress and can not answer questions asking for a comparison between things or questions asking for a review.

    I bought this as an alternative to Alexa and have not been disappointed at all. I find the mini home to be a nice addition to my nightstand using it for alarms adding events to my calendar, checking the weather and other useful reminders!

    I think this compliments the main Google home speaker very nicely. You can use it to voice command Chromecast and as a one way intercom to talk throughout the house.
