    Got my first one as a gift. Learned what it coukd do and soon bought one for each room. I use it a lot with Spotify & news. Incredibly handy and easy to set up, use and find new ways to tap into it's functionality. Purchased two more Google Hub's to augment the array & add functionality.

    I love my home minis. I have 4 of them around my house and they work great. My only complaint is the lack of a wall mount.

    This was my first experience with the google mini. I didn't know what to expect but it was super easy to set up and use. Since I bought this before Christmas, I used it mostly to play Christmas music, but I did play with it a little and explore the games, questions and timers. I will continue to experiment.

    The Google Home mini is an excellent choice over the competitor ( Amazon Alexa). It is smarter, faster, and user friendly.

    I love being able to command “Hey Google”. I’m so used to it that when I travel away, I find myself saying it... once in a while, the speaker doesn’t sync for whatever reason. I couldn’t tell you how I fix it other than trying different things in the Google Home app until I get it to work. The Lenovo Google compatible speaker picks up commands much better, though I don’t find myself using the display much anyway.

    I really enjoy my Google Home. Set up for my account and my wife's, and is very accurate between the two. Setting it up for your devices and for account can take a bit of time, but well worth it to set it up completely to get maximum functionality. Now I just need more smart home devices to connect it to. Highly recommended.

    Good but needs to learn a lot more

    Google mini is just like having your Android phone. It is good but needs to improve a lot to before it can compete with Alexa. Some of its feature rely on connection to linked phone or tablet. It also is not able to hold conversation naturally. Every time the phrase “Hi Google, or OK Google” needs to be repeated even when the conversation is still on going. For example, when making a shopping list the attention getting phrase must be repeated before adding an item to the list. Additionally, when the music is loud you must yell to get its attention.

    Google Home products are amazing. They integrate with so many other types of devices that you have many options. I love that the google home mini is just a speak extension of the google home hub. It's good for broadcasting messages around the house and listening the different music in specific areas.

    My kids use it all the time to get definitions of words they dont understand and answers to question they have. Its a huge help but easy for kids to become dependent on so just monitor their usage and every once in a while make them look up their questions so they dont get to dependent on it.

    It’s a great Google Assistant product and Best Buy offered a great bundle with smart lights/plug. I decided to return it because of the price drop on the Nest mini (2nd generation) that has better sound and has a hole for wall hanging (that I plan to use in a bathroom).

    I thought I knew what to expect when I bought this item, but I have been completely surprised. I bought the item because I thought the price was low enough to give it a try. Well, I am so delighted with the Google Home mini! I use it every day, and I am certain I do not know 50% of the things it can do! This is a must buy!

    As the proud owner of 2 Google Home products including this mini I would love to say that they are the best tech purchases I made last year. Affordable and capabale these products will play the best music with decent sound, control you Google Home products seamslessly and even tell a joke if requested. A definite best buy.

    not much to say that it's pretty great. Super easy to install. Basically plug it in, open up the google assistant on the phone and it is pretty much done. I do wish there was an option for a small screen on some of these, but not a big deal at all. Music sounds great on these hubs, you will be surprised.
