    I based this on its big brother. Haven’t used it yet. Got it for a family for Christmas but Best Buy wanted a review now. It’s big brother is great that is why I purchased the mini’s.

    This is just as good as the Amazon Alexa if not better. Have told my son and son in law to get one for their wives.

    A nice device that works very well. Similar to the Echo, but I think it's nicer looking. Functionality is the same!

    Works great. Controls Hue lights with ease and plays morning news well. Speaker itself is weak, you need chromecast audio to throw it to another speaker so that's kind of a downside.

    I bought another competitive product first as it released 2nd Generation. Apparently it doesn't answer for simple question. Google home and home mini is incredible. Answer all the question. I'm really happy that I was able to control light, play music and many more. I recommend this product and not others.

    My husband and I purchased these during the Black Friday sale where we got an amazing deal; we bought 4. So far they are a lot of fun, we have undiscovered features to go through but are enjoying the broadcast feature and the use of the built-in Bluetooth and really getting to maximize our use of our Google Music subscription. There are a lot of really fun little things that these can do, and a lot of things they can't yet do, but we're hoping. As with any voice activated anything, there's a fair amount of frustration with timing and situations where it just doesn't seem to be listening to you, but overall we're pretty satisfied with our purchase.

    I have had a smart assistant starting with the echo since it car outbut google now has overtaken amazon. If this is your first, just get this one and start small. Put it on your night stand and use it for alarms and weather. If you don’t like it, sell it. But if you really try to use it in our daily life, you will get to a point where having one in the living room, kitchen, bathroom, and more will be beneficial.

    All the things I can do in my home with Google Assistant is amazing, and for only $50. The speaker could be better, but for its size, it ain't bad. Perfect for a bedroom or kitchen.

    This little device is easy to setup and use, it's great for streaming NPR and Pandora. I like being able to stream or play a soothing whitenoise (like rain or a thunderstorm or ocean waves) while doing yoga. It can also answer my various questions, set timers and other useful stuff.
