    Sound is good for how small it is. Only thing is that it is a little too quiet in a larger room.

    Definitely one of my favorite purchases, Google Home Mini is useful and awesome to use on a day to day basis. The size is perfect for a bedroom, and the speaker is definitely loud enough for me. I sometimes get a lag when listening to music, but I am almost certain my wifi connection is to blame and not the device itself.

    The Google Home Mini is perfect for what it does. I love having it next to my bed to ask about whether and to stream music via bluetooth when I want something to listen to at night at a quiet volume. You can ask it to stop playing after a certain amount of time. Those are my favorite features, but it does a lot more.
