    Love these pair of speakers patiently waiting on that chromecast update to run tv audio through them to use as stereo speakers without bluetooth

    Great sound quality, but the software still needs some work, sometimes I have to ask multiple times and sometimes it won’t respond to commands such as volume down.

      Hi Chad479, thanks for appreciating the sound quality of Nest Audio. We're sorry to hear about your disappointment with the response from the Google Assistant when giving voice commands.

      To improve how the Google Assistant recognizes your voice commands, we recommend retraining your Nest Audio with your voice using the Voice Match feature. Here's how:
      Retrain using Voice Match:
      - On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app.
      - At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match.
      - Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain.

      Change Nest Audio's hotword sensitivity:
      - Open your Google Home app.
      - Select your Nest Audio.
      - At the top right, tap the Settings (Gear) icon.
      - Then tap Audio.
      - Then tap "Hey Google" sensitivity and adjust the slider to make your Nest Hub more responsive to the hotword.

      If you need further help, our support team would be happy to assist you. Please reach out to any of our agents here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Love the full sound quality. Was a little concerned that bass would not come through fully in such a small design, but that wasn't the case.

    One the many great products that Google / Nest makes. This speaker is much more compact then the original ones, but is still plenty loud enough.

    Minimal look with pretty good sound and bass. While I think alexa works better with voice commands I feel like google works better controlling my 3rd party devices.

    After reading the review, I decided to give this product a shot. However, I was underwhelmed by its performance. While it's not a bad product by any means, I think its value is closer to $40. In terms of functionality, I didn't notice a significant difference between this unit and my old Google Mini. If you're in the market for something like this, I'd suggest checking it out in person to see if it's right for you.
