It’s ok, nothing special. Alexa has better voice recognition even when you are far from it.

The only cool thing is that this speaker sounds good for the size and it can hear you from around the house. But the "A.I." sucks. Often times I get "Sorry, I don't understand" to questions I deem pretty understandable.

Wish I would have purchased an Amazon echo instead. Google home lacks an intercom feature to other room

I got this product for free in the Phillips hue kit. They are a cool product and the Google Assistant is really smart. However the speaker sounds terrible when playing music. I have two HomePods and these speakers don’t even compare to them as far as sounds goes, bass specifically. I guess I only keep them out for decretive reasons lol?

It does the job, but it is not a crisp and the bass is not as boomy as the larger one....

Purchased this to compare it against my Alexa. Hate to say it, if I could get my money back, I would.

The notification lights are easier to see on the darker colored mini. They do the same thing though.
