Customer Ratings & Reviews

So, my first question was about the weather. Beige question, I know, but still, it was cool to hear a response. Next, we realized we could play Mad Libs and that was a blast! Now, it's just become so integrated into our lives that even in the car, Hubby and I often find ourselves on the verge of outwardly say, "Hey Google" simply out of habit. It's been so helpful and fun! I just can't wait til they work out the kinks and train this thing to stop telling us it can't help us with certain minor questions every so often.

Very easy to setup and start using this device right out of the box. Performs above my expectations. I would like the sound to be a little better, but given the size, it still over performs.

Nice sound and small form makes this perfect for what I need. (I understand the sound is better in the 2nd Gen)

This is great, just tell it what you want it to do and done. Play music, radio station, make lists and they appear in your devices.

I purchased the Echo Dot last Christmas and was left disappointed by it. Google Home Mini is easily more useful with links to your Google account. We use the shopping list quite a bit and it's also great for reminders, calendar events, or just asking questions. It works much better than Echo for all of those tasks.

i was initially against the google home / alexis stuff but once i got one for my bedroom (along with smart lights), now I love these things. I have one in my bedroom, bathroom, kitchen, living room, office, and both kids rooms. Hooked up spotify to listen to music through this. I put the smart lights in the main living areas and these controls them all. A great feature is the broadcast message feature. If dinner is done, I can broadcast a message to all rooms "dinner is done" and everyone in the house hears it. Another good feature is that I can call one mini hub from another. I haven't mastered this yet because sometimes it tries to call one of my contacts instead. Actually that literally would be my only complaint. if I said call 'nates room speaker', and it decides to call a person from my contacts, I cant cancel in time... it will ring my contact before i get a chance to say "ok google hang up". a solution would be an option where it repeats your call request and wants a yes /no reply... i.e., hub will confirm like this: "call nates room speaker? say yes if this is correct". I actually should take a star away for that one issue because I don't call hub to hub anymore just because of that - but everything else is so good I will just leave it and figure out on my own what i can do to not call contacts.

Love the google assistant. It's small so it's easy to fit anywhere. The music sounds great. Very convenient. Great price!

Beware that this addictive. I se myself talking with it all the time now. Checking the weather, news, time and playing music

Easy to hook up. Great with google calendar, radio, music, cooking timer and general info. 2nd one I've purchased. Highly recommend!

When looking for a new Stereo Receiver, I found one that was capable of being paired with a Google Home (Sony STR-DN1080). This inexpensive voice control pairs great with it, when the Stereo is set as the default audio device.

I thought this thing would be so cool. They make it able to do everything on the commercial. Is really only good for telling you the weather. Spotify works but it plays the wrong playlist or other weird things. They say it learns as you go so we’ll see.

I have one in every room in my house kids love it too. I can call them play music as alarm. Its great.

These google home minis are great additions for your bedroom and kitchen. You can broadcast music to all the devices (google home and google home minis) and also broadcast a message to all the devices (or just 1) in the house.

We purchased the Google Home Mini as our main home assistant device last Christmas. We set it up in the kitchen/living room area. The device is cool for family gatherings, cool for listening to music while cooking and cleaning or bbqing on the deck, even cool for helping with research and homework. I'd rather be able to visually see some assistant related items, which is why we purchased the Google Home Hub this year, but we still love our Mini and think it's an overall cool assistant device.

I’ve used Alexa and HomeKit for a while to control devices in my house for a while now. Decided to give the mini a chance. Overall, happy with the connected google world and the ability to get a “smarter” response to requests but setting up connected devices isn’t as straight forward as the other devices out there.

The home mini does exactly what it claims to do. The mini size fits nicely in any small room. It is easy for the whole family to use.

Works great! Syncs with all my Google calendars, does trivia, weather, googling, smart home stuff, kitchen timers, recipe help...it's incredibly versitle. Also has amazing microphones that pick up a normal voice across a room

Great sound for music and helps control smart lights. Nice that it is small and discrete and not noticeable out in the open. Would buy again if I need any more.

My husband chose this when we were adding things to the cart to get 1 year financing lol. But it works great! I love being able to play music by just telling it to. It can also play games with you and answer questions, do math problems for you quickly, tell you word definitions, play playlists on spotify... Only thing i dont like is the volume control.. it is never accurate or to your liking when you ask it to turn it up or down a lot or a little. But still, a great product and fun to have.

It great device many sound great alarm great sound with music play any song you like control with google home
