Wish I had bought one for each room; great for use as a timer, radio, and even alarm clock.

Not sure the purpose of this little speaker. It came as a free item with our purchase. We powered it up, installed the required app, and set it up. Our first question to it was what was the time. It answered. Yay. We then asked it to play some music and it said it can’t. Said it needed more information and to look at the app. The sound isn’t high quality. I guess it would be useful if you just needed to ask it questions, but isn’t that what the internet is for?

I think that it could be way more iPhone friendly. Unless you have a pixel it’s not worth it.

Loved it when I first got it. Cord got lost about half a year after owning it. You have to have a good brick and charger or else it gets a little buggy, thinking of just upgrading to the next generation, but if you want something to just have a smart speaker this isn't a bad choice.

Great product, but, the sound, when compared to full sized unit, leaves a lot to be desired.

When it recognizes my voice, it works great. All of my Android devices and Pixelbook always recognize my voice with no problems. The Home Mini is hit or miss. Maybe it's the acoustics where it's sitting. I love the functionality, when it works, I just wish the voice recognition was consistent for personal tasks.
