    Google Home mini does a good job of playing music and answering questions if you can get it to answer you. Have had some problems with it picking up my voice even at close range.

    For the money, can't complain too much. Works seemlessly with Google play music and LED bulbs around the house. The nest mini has better low end.

    Not the greatest speakers on loud but for low volume and Home Automation control they are great for the price and bundles they are usually tied too. Great gift ideas.

    Even though it's tinier than the Google Home, this little speaker definitely packs a punch. It sounds amazing.
