Excellent and very responsive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought this totally because of the Black Friday deal. Little did I know that I was going to love it. The games you can ask google to play are pretty fun. It works perfectly with chrome cast. For $20 to $30 its totally worth it. I wouldn’t pay any more than that. The voice response even with having loud music and talking in background it will hear you. Also what surprised me the most is it recognized and understood my baby girls mumbling lol.

So much to offer on a small scale
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s the latest thing - speaking to artificial intelligence to seek a response. Some would say we’ve been doing it for years with friends and family, but electronically, Google, Amazon and shortly, Apple, are bringing the world’s knowledge to your home with a simple command. Google Home is great for those all-important questions like “what time is it in Tokyo?” or “how do I boil an egg”. Speak nicely to him or her (you choose) and they may just respond with a friendly comment to make your day. The mini version is just as good and doesn’t take up as much space as its big brother/sister. Google Home mini can be linked to other Wi-fi gadgets in your home - we control our Wemo switches and Honeywell thermostat with ours - and you can even ask it to play Netflix on your TV via chromecast should you so desire. There is much much more to it, but the lack of a manual means you’re in the dark as to how much it can - and often can’t - do. Like all technology, however, it will improve with age. In the meantime, just sit back and enjoy what Google Home mini can do. “Okay Google, how was my review?!”

Used everyday. Really like this little device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not too big, not too small. It is used daily and very handy. We keep our shopping list up to date constantly, set alarms and timers, listen to free music, of course get the weather, and ask questions for quick references. Not bad at simple math either. :) Recommended.

Great for bedroom or office
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love using this in my bedroom. Having the ability to control my lights, TV, stereo, and even alarm system with simple voice commands is prime. I have a pretty extensive Google eco-system in my house, so that amplifies it's value as well. Only complaint is the speaker is not as full sounding as I would have hoped. But coming from a product of this size, it's about par for the course. All in all very happy to have bought this product!

Decent little smart home device
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been an Alexa user since Amazon first offered them to Prime members, and have always been curious if the Google Home was any better. When the price on the Home Mini dropped, I figured I'd try it out and see. After using it for a couple weeks, it does some things better than Alexa (smart home integration is easier to manage for one, searching the web for things is MUCH better), and some things worse (sound quality with music, staying connected to my wireless network). Overall I'd say it's great for the price, but I prefer it in conjunction with Alexa, as opposed to instead of her.

It's a pretty cool little device.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this on the Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal. At the $29 price plus a $10 gift card I figured that I couldn't go wrong. Very easy to setup and start using. Responds quickly and accurately. I honestly haven't used it too heavily yet, but that's due to my in-grained habit of grabbing my tablet or phone when I need an answer to something. Once I break myself of this habit, I'm sure it will be very usefull. It's just pretty cool so far!

natural language processing
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.One of the best in its class. Google has rich databases and thus has lots of potentials. The knowledge in its database can be integrated into the system to become one of the most powerful voice-activated search engine. Too bad, we have to rely too much on this machine and we will lose our privacy. Google has already know how we write (via its gmail), and soon google has our voice-print. Convenient vs privacy... which one do you choose?

Extremely convenient
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Google Home Mini is so easy to use. It really does make life easier and we don’t even use all the potential functions it has. We only have one lamp in the bedroom so once I’m comfy I can tell it to turn off the light. I didn’t even have to set it up to my phone or download the app for it to connect seemlessly to my iPhone Spotify, and even continues playing if I accidentally let my phone dies. I can even ask it to play a certain genre without selecting it on my phone and it does it. It tells me my local weather when I’m deciding what to wear in the morning and answers a lot of questions much better than Siri does. Never had an issue and we also use it with our Nest Thermostat. This is our second one, we originally just had one in the kitchen and could still give it commands all the way from the bedroom. You can adjust the volume as well so it’s not too loud in the bedroom, but can get it loud enough to jam out while doing chores. :)

A must for anyone wanting to create a smart home
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We’ve purchased a total of 10 of these to create an entire whole house wireless speaker system with one in each room. It’s super convenient to be able to ask Google for information or weather or to just play music anywhere. Simple to use and setup with a great price point.
