    Nice mini smart hub for Google Assistant uses. Also works ok as a music speaker and lower to mid volumes levels. But I would recommend two for music listening so you get stereo sound. The microphone on this thing is really good at picking up our voices, even through other noises. And if you take the time to set up your voice recognition on Google Assistant, it can even tell the difference between who exactly is speaking the command, allowing for functions to be limited to specific users on the account. All of this said, I would still recommend the newer Nest Mini. It does all of what I said, just better. And with a few extra features.

    I've had the original Home since it came out. I got this one to add in the bedroom. Now I have them on a group together and it's nice to play music across them both. It's not awesome sound but it let's the fun shine through. The features continue to grow and I'm exciting to start expanding into home automation where this device will play a pivotal role.
