    I already have an Echo (and echo dot) but got the google home to compare the two. As of Dec 2016, Echo wins hands down. Echo works with many more products and provides extra deals through Amazon. Google home is not bad but has very limited functionality outside of googles own products (e.g., can control nest thermostat but not ecobee 3). The home has the ability to use chromecast to push videos and audio to connected devices which is a feature amazon's device doesn't have but it's hard to select a specific video and only works off of youtube. Audio is good but don't expect audiophile quality. Echo gets louder but otherwise speakers are similar. Speaking with the home was a little more fluid and it could answer a few more questions than Alexa could via echo but there were still a ton of questions that ended in basically a 'i can't do that yet' response. What was troublesome for me for the google home is that when i asked for a news update it gave me a sponsored ad first, Echo just goes straight to it. Ironically the NPR news flash is slightly different with each and i honestly prefer Amazons more. Google home will become more compatible with other devices but as of right now it's clearly struggling and Echo is also continually expanding its functionality. If you're in the market for these i would recommend Amazon's product for now unless you really want this for voice control of youtube and music to devices you already have connects to a chromecast. Otherwise an amazon echo or echo dot are simply more functional. In the future i have no doubt that this product will get better but as of right now it's a little too far behind the amazon devices tobe in the race

    I really enjoy this new product. While it still has some kinks to work out. I think Google will give a lot more updates to this in the future.

    Google home has been very impressive so far with a few kinks, but showing a lot of potential for improvement. The speakers sound really good.
