    I continue to support google as that's what I started with. Still not up to par with Alexa for simple things like multiple shopping lists.. deleting from shopping lists, etc... have a ways to go. I keep betting on investment paying off...

    Google Mini

    We love our Google mini but wish the Google technology allowed for these devices to work like an intercom instead of just broadcasting messages. It is disappointing since the Amazon devices have this capability and Google does not.

    perfect for any room where you do not need the sound quality of the larger version. This is good for voice commands but for listening to music you might want to use something else. Also this does not have an audio output which is disappointing.

    I bought this google home mini few weeks ago. But every few days i have to restart it to keep my automated bedroom connected. I felt frustrated after few weeks of using it. I would recommend Amazon Alexa over it.

    We use it to play some music as background noise for our cat when we are are. Device works ok, but I am still reluctant about potential invasion of privacy these devices require

    Not of fan of the Google home products. I feel Amazon Echo devices aren’t so much better and Alexa is easier to use especially saying only one word as opposed to Hey Google and no way to change wake word.

    Google Home does what it says. It's an Alexa competitor that fills the need. I wouldn't say I can't live without it. Sound quality is just OK and will not fill a room with music. I'd opt for a bigger speaker if I were to purchase again

    Facing issues with microphone will prefer Alexa

    I am writing this review after nearly 3 month of my purchase. And I can quite confidently say that the google mini has some serious design issues which will make the microphone nearly useless while the speaker is ON and on full volume.

    Works good and works as described but major feature missing. It would be great if you could use it as an intercom like the Alexa can be used. The broadcast message is nice but all units in the network get the broadcast.

    Great concept but anything to do with recognizing voices or accessing any other account etc have to ask it ten times to do anything like that. I keep reprogramming my voice but nothing helps. Called Google a few times and nothing.

    I use this primarily for virtual google commands like hue lights, news, weather. big issue with this is bluetooth connection drops everytime - so buy if you're thinking of wireless speaker.

    It was a cool toy, but I didn’t really use it. I’m sure if you had all the gadgets in your house that responds to it, it would definitely be worth it. I took mine back, maybe some day I will revisit it, if my needs change.

    Got this as a gift. I already had a number of Echo devices. Candidly, the Google mini is not as good as Alexa. It is less intuitive and seems to require more setup to retrieve fairly basic information.

    I really went in there to buy the Phillips hue lighting system, which is awesome by the way. Unfortunately, I was led to believe that I would need the Google assistant to make it work and that’s not true.

    Works as intended. The second generation has much better audio quality if you're planning on playing music. The price is nearly identical or just a few bucks more.

    Bought this just wanting to test it out because I already have an echo. It's a good speaker to have in your room for music and questions. Wouldn't recommend if you want great speaker quality.
