Customer Ratings & Reviews

I purchased two of these new Nest Audios to replace an existing original Google Home, and a Google Home Mini, both located in different rooms in the house. The overall sound quality is much better than both outgoing speakers and I'm very pleased with how they round out my whole home setup, which now consists of these two Nest Audios, plus a Google Home Max, two Home Minis, and a Home Hub. These are the perfect middle ground between the Mini and the Max. Direct comparison to the older Google Home, these sound much more neutral and balanced, it's not trying to overdo anything and just overall pleasing to listen to. I would like if it were a tad louder, but for the price it's solid.

Overall the sound quality is decent but not as good as some Bluetooth portable speakers out there with similar size It is worth $50 Also it doesn’t support casting from YouTube. It is supported through YouTube music app. It should support from YouTube.

The Google Nest Audio is a great product for the price. The sound quality is clear and great for music, podcasts, or just asking questions. It is a big large, but the color options can allow it to fit into most areas. It was easy to set up. I love using this in my living room for Google Assistant or listening to music. I have it linked to my record player for bluetooth playing as well and it's seamless!

Crystal clear sound and simple to use. Love the ability to operate handsfree while using voice commands. Very compact and looks good too.

Love these speakers! I have six of them in the house so I can play my music loud. $50 is a great price...thanks Best Buy.

Our Nest Smart Speaker works in stereo with our display, and the music sounds much better. Easy to set up and works great.

If you are in the Google ecosystem, this is the speaker to get. Nice, balanced sound. Works well in a living room. Not as loud and full as a Home Max or an Echo Studio, but more than enough for casual listening. Design is nice if your room matches that Google look. It is taller than I had imagined, but that doesn't detract from the appeal. Mics don't seem as responsive as the newer echo units, but it is still very responsive. You just need to speak up a little if music is playing. Overall, great product. Good at $99, great at anything less.

We used to struggle with the Nest MIni hearing us when the music was playing above 50% volume, but this hears us much easier so we’re not having to scream from 20 feet away to turn down the volume. Sound output is also much better. The low end has the biggest increase in sound quality compared to the mini. For $50 it was definitely worth the upgrade.

This is fantastic! I needed both audio and an assistant in my room so I got this. It does not disappoint! Great bass and overall fidelity for the price. It booms! I also was worried it would be too pink but really blends in nicely to lighter wood furniture. Would recommend.

The best smart speaker pair for the money, connection reliability, pairing, and volume. Google Assistant still outperforms Alexa and Siri, and sometimes you get a magical answer. Still pretty frustrating that there's no audio inputs on these devices, and having too many of them in too small an area makes it hard for them to figure things out. Don't buy them unless they're on sale. If you can't get these buy-1-get-1, maybe you can wait until Black Friday or similar.

I purchased two of these when they went on sale. Music sounds much better compared to the previous model and it looks cleaner too.

Very nice sound and easy setup. Better than the Google Mini it replaced.j

This is a great device! The base is Fantastic! 100% recommended!

This is a great product with great sound. Please note if you ever have to factory reset, placement of your fingers in the middle, top front of the device may be tricky. Also, I wouldn't pay over $50 as these frequently go on sale. Other than that, I would recommend.

Love this thing. I love asking it questions. It's a nice small size, has great sound and can get nice and loud when needed.

Excellent sound quality and integrates into our existing setup well. Perfect for our master bedroom!

Good sound quality. I bought this to connect to Gemini— Still haven't figure out how to get it working correctly. Good speaker though.

Easy to connect. Sound great. Love it I do recommend

Good Product. It has good sound quality and fits nicely in my room. Easy to setup and operate.

Bought me 2 of these speakers for my office and the stereo mode gives some pretty top notch sound. You can ask google pretty much anything basic but don’t ask anything to specific or it just won’t understand. It’s a pretty good smart speaker overall and have been enjoying using it so far.
