Customer Ratings & Reviews

I took mine back because I just don't have many smart home products. I would recommend Google Home Mini to any who has a lot smart home products. Once I expand my smart home devices I will be purchasing it again. Keep it up Google.

The Home Mini is surprisingly loud for such a small device. Comparatively, it's much louder I feel than the Amazon Echo Dot, which I was using prior to the Home Mini. I also feel it's much more attractive looking than the Echo Dot.

This is a nice thing to have at home...handy, however Google needs to push updates to their systems. If you have your work calendar is on outlook and synced to your iPhone calendar, this device won’t be able to access it. It can only access the google calendar. All corporates will not let their employees sync their work calendars to personal calendars for data privacy issues, and rightly so. It does not yet work completely with android TVs. It will play from YouTube on your tv however it will not be able to access your Netflix if you are using an android tv. The voice quality on the phone for the receiver of he call is choppy at times. Not always. Having said that, for th price, it still is a good buy. I think it’s just a matter of time that google figures out the game and makes the updates.

Have a few Echo Dot's and gave this a try and was impressed with the sound quality and amount of integration you can achieve. Definitely buying more of these.

Really good quality speaker for the price. Google does better at voice commands and search. However you need a chrome cast to connect it to external speakers.

The sound quality is much better than Alexa. I find my self using the Google mini more than the Echo dot. I bought it just to compare and like it much better.

Got this for free with my Nest smoke detector, liked it so much brought two more. Easy to learn to use endless amount of youtube videos on all its usefulness.

I love this for the simplicity of control and using it as a little alarm/speaker. Works so easily with my google cast TV and is fun to ask it to play netflix.

I already have a Google Home so I was very excited to get the mini. It connects with my home so I can listen to the same types of music from one to the other.

This little mini speaks very well. But pair it with another speaker and your sound system will be awesome. It picks up your voice from another room very good.

I'm glad Google launched this in their Google home product line with this competitive price point. A good product but could be better in terms of searching the web when trying to provide you information for the question you asked.

We have a few of these around our home. They are very affordable and great for creating a smart home. It controls the lights in our home. Plays nice background music and has endless possibilities when you ask it questions. Definitely prefer google over Alexa because there has so been so many weird issues with the amazon Alexa. I would definitely recommend it!

These little things are great. They sound good for such a small speaker. There are so many things they can do. You can even use it for a sound machine at night and when it comes to something you need to know all you have to do is ask. You can tell it to show your Google photos on your tv too. Setting up is very easy also. I am very satisfied with everything.

I got this speaker from Google to add to my home, It does the basic commands like playing music or turn on the lights (Smart Switch required) or check your calendar, email, etc. It seems that with the latest updates more commands can be given to it, but it would be nice if you could have your family members voice added so it will give results depending on who's asking. Some limits and restrictions can be done through the Google Home app, but I wish they would allow some more tweaking for it.

Do you know the difference between Alexa and Google? Google works! You can ask whatever you want, whenever, whereever and with any accent. Awesome assistant!

Good speaker, well priced, seems easy to use great for gifts

Great device, works just like the big brother, but the sound is a little less tuned. Overall, still a great product for the price point. Better than the Dot!

Love this small speaker! It’s great as a virtual assistant: it can control my smart devices via the Samsung SmartThings Hub, it can quickly answer any of my questions, and it sounds very good as a music speaker given its small size. For the best sound quality, I would recommend one of the bigger speakers from Google. But this is great as a bedroom or office speaker.

The google hoe mini is an awesome little device and for the sale price you can't go wrong. I'm using it to control lighting by voice among many other things.

Don't know how well it actually works yet as was bought as a gift. Don't see any reason for it to not perform as well as the full size home or an amazon dot.
