    I've had the Amazon Echo Dot since the first generation, and I've loved it. Still do, in fact. But I also love the Google Home Mini. Both are great, inexpensive personal assistants, but they also have their respective pros and cons. Generally speaking, they do almost all of the same things, and at current holiday price point of $30 are a great deal. The one aspect of the Google Home Mini that I love compared to the Echo Dot is the vastly superior speaker. That said, I really wish it had an aux out. But since the speaker is much better, that isn't a huge gripe for me. Overall, it's a great personal assistant, and I'd buy it again in a heartbeat.

    When I was looking to buy something like this last year, Alexa was the clear winner. However, I came to find out that Alexa was somewhat restrictive in its use. I saw the Home Mini advertised on TV and was very impressed by what it could do- so I ordered one. Believe me , it did not disappoint. I bought it primarily for use in my 13 yearold son's room. The feature I like best is ttthat it responds to my voice, as well which makes things easier to access when he falls asleep.

    A perfect competition to Amazon Alexa and a proper product in the field of smart devices. I have been using since the Thanksgiving and oh boy what a device. Pros: A small device fit to in your room, understands your commands and answers your question very quickly and accurately. Cons: Need to sync with your google account and it cannot work without a chromecast unlike Alexa for voice control. On a whole i recommend to a friend or anyone who would like to grab one.

    Works better than Amazon Echo Dot

    First, m whole house is automated using Amazon echo dots, Amazon Fire TV and tablets, Insteon hub (for lights, fans, appliances) and Logitech harmony hub (for TV, home entertainment system). I got this Google mini free with my wife's new Google pixelbook. I set it up and was surprised it answers questions better than the echo dot. In the last two days, Amazon must have updated their software and the Logitech hub is not working with my echo dots. But the Google mini works fine for controlling my TV and home entertainment system. The Google mini is also good for being able to turn on lights before I enter the house. Since my car has Android Auto, I can turn on lights before entering the house since Android Auto supports Google Assistant. Also, on the Google pixelbook, there is a keyboard button for Google assistant. Overall, I am very impressed with the Google mini. The only things I do not like is that it doesn't support Amazon music, iHeart radio, and other functions that are available on my Amazon echo dots.

    I noticed when I request something specific like Wiki entry it gives me exactly what I ask for, yay. But if I ask a general question like "tell me the show times at xyz theater" it will only give me the next showtimes and not all the show times. The Echo gives all the show times. I still have not had it long but I couldn't figure out how to get it to give me all the show times for a particular movie for a particular theater. This seems essential in using this kind of assistant. Since this is just a software issue I am hoping it improves. Love the low profile and the charcoal color...wish it came with a black cord and not a white one.

    My mini google gives me quick answers so I don't have to look them up. Also it is great for recipes and if you want music while working around the house, it can do that also. .

    Good smart speaker but not perfect

    Google has several things going for this tiny smart speaker. The sound quality is much better than on the Alexa mini devices however it doesn't have the ability to connect an external speaker via a plug or Bluetooth which is a big detraction. There is also no comparison between the Smart's of Google Assistant versus Alexa's very limited responses and knowledge when it comes to answering questions. However the Alexa assistant, in my opinion, is better at controlling smart home devices. Give Google a little time and they will catch up and probably surpass Amazon. For now if you want a better sounding mini smart speaker that can answer your random questions more accurately stick with the Google mini but if your main concern is controlling your smart home then the Alexa Mini is it better return on your investment. As a side note I own six Alexa Minis and two Google Minis and have put them head-to-head so my assessment is accurate.
