Customer Ratings & Reviews

Starting to use it more on a daily basis. Enjoying many of the features and it connects to many of my smart devices

I love the google home mini--I use it to control the lights in my home where the light switches are not even close to reasonably located. It has fun trivia games to play and is great to use when cooking to figure out how much of ingredients to put in when dividing or multiplying recipes as well.

Very easy to use. Very easy to set up and now I don't even need to move a muscle.

I love the google assistant platform. I have these all over my house. I ask it to play white noise when I sleep. It turns on my Christmas tree. It makes life easy. You know what, it’s a little hot in here, I think I’ll ask it to turn my ac down a few degrees.

Can’t beat the price! While Alexa has more integrated brand names (currently in 2017), Google has the superior AI.

I have a couple in my home and I gave a couple for gifts for Christmas this year. Basically all you need is Wi-Fi and you're good to go. The Google home mini answers many questions and performs many tasks I ask it to. I control Phillips Hue lights throughout the home, set alarms, control Nest thermostat, etc...

I purchased 5 of these Google Minis for my mom. She currently has a Google Home. Making her house a lot smarter! :)

If you own Android phone or a pixel phone in particular you'll have the fullest experience with devices like these.

Being able to ask a question rather than typing it on a device is more convenient and the answers just as thorough.

Easy setup Tell traffic conditions and weather better than Echo Dot Sound good for a tiny size

Good sound, like the lights, works as advertised. I bought these to go along with a nest hello installation since my whole house intercom system wouldn’t integrate. I spread these around the house and now I get notified when someone rings the doorbell but it’s nice having a virtual assistan as well

Since I have not used Alexa I am not sure which one is better but I like google assistant it does pretty good job!!

It's a great addition to the home - I use it paired with my Google Home which is nice to have one in multiple rooms

The Google home mini is a great tool in getting your home outfitted with an assistant. I decided to go with Google over Amazon because of the Android integration and being able to use the assistant seamlessly from my phone as well. Overall, it's a great speaker for it's size and works as intended!

I love the Google home I purchased a year ago, so when the mini came our had to get. Especially with the good deal.

I bought the charcoal color and the gray color and they are both really nice...I guess it depends on your interior.

I have found the Google Mini to be useful. I use it to set alarms, make hands-free phone calls, provide weather information, and answer many informational questions faster than resorting to my smartphone or computer. Some questions it cannot help with, but I overall definitely would recommend it.

Has better sound than the echo dot, and can answer way more questions in a conversational style.

We got this free with purchase of a Nest thermometer. Prior to that we had an Amazon Echo (Alexa) for quite a while, I believe we got that shortly after they first came out. We set this up in the living room and the Alexa is in the kitchen. So we can talk to either on the first floor of our home, so sometimes for fun and out of curiosity we will ask them both the same thing to compare the responses. Most of the time they're pretty much the same, but there are times Alexa seems to know more. Once in a while the Home will be the winner. They can even talk to each other which is neat, and the kids get a kick out of that to be sure. What we use ours the most for is setting timers/alarms/reminders, asking about the weather, getting answers to math problems we don't feel like breaking out a calculator for, brief facts that come up during conversation (a celebrity's height, the definition of a word, what year something happened, etc - whatever you could Google!). The only thing we've incorporated is the Nest, we can ask the Home to adjust the temperature. I'm sure there are plenty of things we could be using it for that have not yet occured to us. These things freak some people out, but they're the precursor to the inevitable robot household helpers and I think they're pretty cool.

Gave these out as Christmas gifts. Didn't get a chance to use them yet, but so far the recipients have been happy.
