    Have an original at our primary home. This newer version in our vacation house has better quality sound, nice design and very easy to set up. Thinking about switching? Once you have Google home this just gets easier. Am planning to add a few minis in other rooms and link them.

    Very clear, good volume, good freq range. Lows are on the lighter side. Love to group them and play through the whole house in sync.

    Great sound from this speaker, pretty solid and heavy. Paired easily with my Google tablet, but, cannot get it to pair with Pixel 9 pro phone. Got this item for a great price during the holidays. Thanks Best Buy.

    Very happy with the new Google Nest speaker. I have a few of the small round ones which are good, but this sounds quite a bit better! The sound has a little more dimension to it. It's been performing flawlessly.

    We have a number of google speakers, and these bigger ones provide better bass than the minis. They are fantastic for a number of music genres, although probably less impressive with some rock tracks (probably depends on how they are mixed). In a smaller room one is sufficient, and in larger rooms we pair one with a nest mini speaker. They serve as an intercom system throughout the house, and you can create speaker groups to play music simultaneously in specific areas. Only downside is there is a minor delay if you pair them to a google tv that plays through a sound bar. Really happy with our speakers and the whole family enjoys the dance parties.

    Google home products are easy to set up, easy to use and Google’s recent updates have improved performed, This speaker is an upgrade over the Google Home, but doesn’t have the sound of a Bose or Google Max. It’s good, and for the price it’s well worth it, but it’s not going to blow you away, at $99 it is a good deal though.

    Sounds good. Can connect multiple speakers as a group and make a sound system. It seems to have a bit of trouble hearing me and more trouble when other people are talking. That’s sounds normal but it should only “recognize” my voice so I would assume this wouldn’t happen so much. It’s easy to set up and works well though!

    I purchased 2 for our covered patio. Easy set up, big improvement over original Google Home. Bass, midtones much improved. Possible to set up as LR speakers, but I chose not to. Highly recommend if you are not satisfied with original or mini.

    Perfect size and color for planning desk. Everyone in the home can use it and it works from across the room. Nice sound - both music & google responses. Added this to an extensive collection of Google home products already in use.

    This is great improvement over the previous Google Home. Really deep base and clear sound. Excellent for casual listening and background music while doing work or chores. Love it! And the price is great!

    Handy smart speaker/hub, but not perfect

    Decent sound and build quality. If you have Bluetooth Smart home devices connected to a another Google home hub device, you'll have to set those up again. No mesh Bluetooth here, unfortunately, so still limited to 6 devices.

    Great sound for the price. I was looking for a new smart assistant speaker and was about a day away from getting a Sonos one (Which I really didn’t want as it does not support voice match or more than a single mic) when the nest audio was released. I was so excited to learn I could get a stereo pair of these speakers (Both with Triple Mics and VoiceMatch) for less than 1 Sonos! Now granted even the stereo pair can’t produce those full deep bass notes like a Sonos one but they can crate an insanely full soundstage for their size and cost! And if you have a google home it is super easy to integrate and pair with your other google home compatible speakers!

    Nest Audio has a much better design than the 1st gen Google Home speakers to go along with a solid Audio quality. It picks up the commands well and executes them as you expect any Google Assistant to. It has a decent volume range.
