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.

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.

Works great with Google and all. It looks nice. Good quality. But it doesn't put out the sound i would expect from something this size.
Hi Thedadchamp, we appreciate you for posting your review. We're sorry to hear that your experience with the audio quality didn't meet your expectations. Your Nest Audio is 75% louder than the original Google Home, and has 50% stronger bass which is measured from 40-160 Hz at max volume. Nest Audio should adapt to your environment and whatever you’re listening to making music sound better. If you need further assistance in enhancing your overall experience with Nest Audio, please don't hesitate to contact us on our Google Help page here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp

Nest audio is great. Excellent sound quality, great bass and super fast responses from Google. Google has once again knocked it out the park.

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.

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.

Good sound quality, some connectivity issues depending on what you are trying to connect, particularly if you plan to connect multiple devices and try to go back and forth between them.

Speaker has good build quality and google assistance is bliss. I was expecting more loud and clear sound from this speaker as it’s at mark of $100 which is 2x or 3x compared to nest mini.

It kept disconnecting from the internet, so it would just stop playing music and “I can’t connect to WiFi right now. Please check your internet connection...” It became so frustrating that I switched to Amazon Alexa. No issues. Unfortunately I couldn’t return the Nest since I got rid of the packaging.
