      Hi More4me, thanks for posting in your review. We're glad to hear that your experience with your Nest Audio has been great. We'd recommend checking the settings from your Google Home app to adjust bass and treble level for an even better experience. Here are some steps to adjust the sound quality:

      1. Make sure your mobile device or tablet is connected to the same Wi-Fi or linked to the same account as your Nest Audio.
      2. Open the Google Home app.
      3. Tap the device you want to adjust, and then Settings, and then Audio, and then Equalizer.
      4. Adjust Bass and Treble level.

      If you need further assistance with your Nest Audio, feel free to contact us on our Google Help page and our support specialists will be standing by to lend you a hand. You can reach our help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    If you have an android phone with you all the time, you barely will use this speaker as a command, but is more precisely at least in my case than my phone in some task. If you want to buy it do it, you'll get an Bluetooth speaker and even more

    We have a lot of google items! I’m we got this item to use in the living room when someone wanted the listen to music. Even though we have other speakers around the house to use, this is just when you need to ask something or just want to use a speaker that a lot quieter then our bigger ones.

    Sound is good for price, but heavy sound delays

    Google's got a ways to go. Soundwise its good for a standard speaker if you're just trying to get music. Nice and loud, lows aren't too heavy, mids and highs are just right for the price. Works as intended for a random speaker in your house. When it comes to bluetooth connectivity its lacking. My old small Sony XRB12 pairs with any device and has minimal sound delay. The Google Nest Audio has a very noticeable lag. I mainly wanted this as a higher utility alternative for, nojust music or asking google silly questions, but as a room speaker for a TV. I initially bought two and when paired together sound good, but the delay is even worse. You'd think with Googles market value they wouldn't have these issues.

      Hi B12thechank, thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that you’re experiencing lags and delays on your Nest Audio.

      Here are few steps you can try:
      - Make sure your device is getting enough signal from the router. Place it within the recommended distance (15-20 ft.) away from the router.
      - Check for possible sources of interference such as microwave ovens, refrigerator or other devices in your home that may weaken Wi-Fi signals.
      - Reset your device.

      If you need assistance, feel free contacting our support team. We’d be more than happy to assist you here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    These speakers are great, but what really holds it back is the terrible google software, as much as i like android and google assistant, the "eco system" that google claims to have really holds these back
