Customer Ratings & Reviews

Answers at my fingertips. I bought this item for fun but I have to say I really enjoy having it. So if my family is sitting in the living room and we had a question, this agreement, or just simply want a quick answer about anything, Google helps resolve it. It's like having a trivia answer card at your fingertips. I'm still trying to figure it out so that I can make doctors appointments, phone calls, reservations at a restaurant, etc. it was an expensive item so I don't regret buying it. I am a little anxious and maybe even paranoid about all the talk of how google can and will record your conversations but honestly we're not the CIA, criminals or have deep secrets so let it record, I have gotten in the habit of unplugging it at night or if I want to have a private conversation. I can't say, that I will be so glad when Google ads other features such as calling 911 if you have an emergency or need help but I guess that is to come in the future.

Very impressed with the sound from this unit. I use this for music when trying to go to sleep. Works about as good as my full size Google Home.

This smart home unit is awesome! I mainly use the google home for light automation as well as music and alarms. My biggest sellng point is how small and discreet it looks. I recently bought the disney otterbox stand for it and now it looks like Mickey Mouse in my house. Absolutely love it!

The google home mini is, in my experience, a very handy little device. I originally came to Best Buy only to get a chromecast because I needed a way to stream Netflix and Hulu to my old (and cheap) tv, but I snagged the mini as well when I saw it was on sale for just 30 dollars. I had some Best Buy rewards too so really, it was just an impulse buy. I wanted one and now could afford it, so why not? Novelty as I thought it would be, it has proven me so wrong. I use it to pause and play my tv, I use it to stream my music (and it sounds pretty good for the size), I use it to find out the time when I don’t have my phone on me, and I use it to just play around with. It can’t do some things yet, like stream Hulu to my tv, and if it’s playing anything it has a hard time hearing me, but it makes up for this in how well it recognizes my commands. Siri is awful about not understanding what I am saying, and Alexa is often the same, but google assistant allows me to speak very naturally. I am soon getting two for my grandmother in both her room and the kitchen. The broadcast feature will be very handy.

We got this product for our apartment, and it's been super helpful in providing us with updates on the weather, traffic, news updates, etc. It's also easy to sync with other 'cast/wifi' enabled devices like our Vizio soundbar, Chromecast Ultra, house lights, etc. (IFTTT is super helpful for creating additional 'applets' to supplement the Google Home mini device). A 10/10 buy, and a great christmas gift for friends and family.

Hands down one of my favorite purchases this year. I ordered with with intent of having Google Assistant available to answering a few questions or for info on a particular movie, item, ect. Immediately it became 10x more helpful with controlling things in my home, setting my schedule for the days and weeks, playing music while I clean, and so much more. I love it to much I have two. (and considering another one)

The good news is that it performs just like the Google home unit. The great news is the speaker has way better audio than I expected. The bad news is I purchased the gray one, and it has a white AC adapter and cord. I purchased the dark one to blend into where it is going, but now there is an ugly white cord hanging out. While it may not make a difference in a cell phone charger, it does in a unit that will be plugged in all the time. A miss for sure

My mini helps me to get my favorite music; it is easy to set up with many features, I got 2 for a great price on special. Get yours to. I got mine set up on the wall.

It works like a charm. It's a great smart speaker to have for playing music or just to give it commands to turn on/off items in your house and it's small so you can easily hide it from view

It’s very loud and it’s does what I bought it for.

My Baby Google, as I like to call him, is just wonderful. He is very precise and answers any and all questions I have. He even plays my favorite radio station. I've nicknamed him Baby Ashley Purdy.

This speakers sounds good and loud enough for the price, also it looks quite stylish, and its assistant is very helpful too. I personally use it as a nighttime music machine and wake up alarm, on occasions asking for stuff i need to know also. It does the job, the only bad thing about it is that it has to be connected to WiFi to stream stuff, not doing it directly from the phone.

I have a Amazon Echo and the Echo fit but I saw this on sale so I decided to try it. I’m so happy I did. It works with my roku tv which is awesome because sometimes I lose my remote to it. It makes phone calls and sets timers. It answers the questions that I ask. I’m not sure how music sounds on it because I haven’t tried it yet but I’m considering getting another one of these because I like them so much.

It’s a great piece of technology to have laying around throughout the house. I would be more glad if it had more functions and was able to handle a little more tougher tasks.

I love this smart speaker. I set it up to wake me up for work in the mornings and whenever I wanna hear music I just say what I want to hear and it plays it’s great!

I've had it for a little over a week. It's pretty good just don't expect to listen to music on it. Also if you own a Samsung tv you need another piece of equipment to control it. Other then that for $49 it's cool as heck.

The Google home mini is so useful and sounds great! I have it tell me what's on my calendar in the morning. From wherever I'm sitting, I can have it play music without getting up! I use it to turn on and off lights in my house that I have connected. Finding Google Easter eggs is fun, and some of the games are fun too. You can even ask it to make you a sandwich!

This is my second Home mini. Bought another one because my dad wanted mine. The home mini is great for those who love to listen to music all the time. Would definitely recommend and easy to use.

It had a better deal than the echo dot with the inclusion of a $10 Best Buy Gift Card and was by far the more eye catching deal.

The google home mini is a great invention. All of my family members are attracted to its performance.
