Didn’t expect much due to its size but it’s actually pretty awesome! Clear sound. Good looking. Does what it’s supposed to do.

This is a neat little device and I haven't even come close to experimenting with all of its capabilities yet. Has a great speaker and understands me well, I've not had to repeat myself once.

I enjoy the capabilities of the speaker, it's loud and clear, only downfall is sometimes I have to yell for the thing to hear me if it is playing music or turn the volume down by tapping it.

Quick & easy set up. Syncs well with Google products. Fun, efficient, and friendly.
Works well with Apple products as well.

I'm still learning all that my mini can do. It's amazing what it does do. From shopping lists to saying goodnight. I love it!

The mini is awesome. Very good for such a little speaker. Ask for the weather, time, play music, reminders, etc.
WORTH IT!

The Google Mini is really helpful and actually saves a fair amount of time. We use smart bulbs in our house so we can turn our lights off and on with the device. Also, instead of having to look stuff up online we can get most information by asking our Google Mini. We liked it so much we bought 2 (One for upstairs and one for downstairs) and also bought one as a gift for Christmas for someone. Definitely recommend it. Also, I find the answers to be more accurate than on other devices like Alexa.

My 8 year old purchased this with his own money and uses it to set alarms for his screen time, ask questions about just about anything, and listen to music. Works so great we are getting a second for his room to remind him when it's time to login to his virtual school sessions.

I really like Google products. If you have a choice between this and the full size get this. I have both and prefer this one.

I couldn't justify spending $129 on a Google Home, but could spend $29 on the discounted Google Home Mini without a second thought. It has replaced my phone as my alarm clock, but I don't have any other smart home devices for it to interact with, so I mainly use it to tell me the time when I wake up in the middle of the night. Other great uses are telling me about my day with some news bits after, asking for today's forecast and the current temperature, and playing Spotify with the sleep timer.

So far, I like the Google Home Mini and have actually purchased another one as a gift for someone else. I am still learning what all I can do with it. There are good videos online to watch.

It was a very quick set up and performs much better than I had anticipated. Very clean look and design. Well worth the cost.
