    This Google Nest speaker sounds good when audio played thru it. Has issues controlling bulbs of plugs on the home app every now and then but it foes work great with a strong WiFi network. And it tajes up no space when u buy the socket shelf for it to sit on, on the wall.

    It has good sound & very easy setup on the Home app. Significantly better than a Nest Mini with sound better than a Nest Hub. I'd say it has the same sound quality as the Hub Max but the volume is just a touch lower on the Nest Audio. It was a good deal & I'd recommend it as a strong part of a Home speaker group.

    This speaker is just what I was looking for in our bedroom. I enjoy relaxing to Pandora's piano music, etc. Sounds good and I am thinking about adding a second for stereo, but it is not a must. Good sound, good buy. Plus, I enjoy asking Google questions. She gives deeper, clearer responses than Alexa.

    These speakers are much better quality than the original home speakers. $100 seems a bit much; i'd feel better about it at a $80 price point.

    This is certainly a really great product, it provides quite a good balance of base and sound quality. For a small room to medium sized rooms you definitely can feel that base even with just having one speaker. I can only imagine what it might feel like if I had two of them paired up in a group. As far as talking to it, at first I did notice it was sometimes not responsive as quickly, but I retrained my voice and I turned up to sensitivity a little bit since the base and my distance was quite far away from the speaker. It has definitely improved and I think just the simple retraining of my voice has helped it. The quality does fill my whole bedroom up where I have the speaker, and even compared to the mini and the hub this is by far the loudest with bass and full sound. It might not be the home Max speaker, but two of these I think do equate to a homemax speaker so for the price it's pretty good. Keep looking out for sales that do occur where you could get the unit for $20 off. Overall it is definitely worth the time and efforts to buy great for music podcasts and much more. The unit does have a little bit of weight so that does feel good and sturdy on a bookshelf or table. The colors are kind of strange in the way that you might think sand is sand, but it is more of a pinkish hue of sand, and the sage is I guess you could call it a greenish color whereas the blue which is a thing called sky blue or something and the other two white and black are as they would be. The main controls are basically on the top half so if you tap on the top middle you either play pause the track and then the left and right shoulders of the speakers will pretty much feel like the area you would touch for volume up or down towards the front and then you have the lights that signify the volume rate at which it set on. It is definitely easy to set up through the Google home app and you can customize the settings under the device settings once you have added it to a room or such. Left parentheses if you want to add it with another speaker remember to add it to the group right parentheses that will basically let you pair the two together and act like one big speaker.

    Immersive sound detail that sounds like it would be from a much larger speaker. Lows are good, but still limited given the small woofer space available for it.

    Nest Audio’s sound quality, very happy with it for everything from casual background music to more dedicated listening. Nest Audio is louder and sounds better than the Nest Mini and is the better choice for frequently listening to music. Pair two speakers for stereo sound and get better sound.

    First, I bought this on a 50% off sale and it was super easy to set up and use, so a win - win. Busy Mom here and so nice to be able to connect, get information or play music with just a command, no hands needed.

    This is what I neede to replace the old speaker. There was nothing wrong with the old speaker/Google assistant device which I repurposed it. Now the living room/kitchen Smart Speaker can handle the space with a richer sound. Works seamlessly with my new Google dongle and much more. Family is pleased.

    Definitely a lot of sound power for only $100. Also, you can set up Speaker Groups again in Google Home. This is very useful for setting up surround sound. Love it.

    Bought this to use with Google Streamer but cannot so not using at present. Tried it an sounds fine but nothing special. The fact that Google owns this, the streamer and YouTube TV and yet they do not work together is a real mystery.

    Perfect home speaker. Very much worth the price. Nice and loud. Volume up and down on the speaker itself is a bit difficult to find but that’s not an issue.
