    Great device with a full power of Google Assistant. Can easily be placed in settle locations where it is out of sight behavior. Usable. Microphone is ridiculously good at picking you up across long distances without the need to increase your voice volume. This is only a four-star review because they never resolved the touch to pause issue from the very first generation. You have touch volume controls but not longer a center pause touch button. There are also some nice aftermarket battery based that can allow this to run for 4 hours. Eg. Take it outside to the patio.

      Hi cbkyro, thanks for sharing your feedback on Nest Mini. We're glad to hear that you're finding it as a great device, especially with the awesome features you get with the Google Assistant and other hardware features. However, we're sorry to hear about your concern with the touch to pause feature. This feature is actually fully supported on Nest Mini. Other than the volume controls located on the top left and right hand side of the speaker, you can play and pause it by touching the top center of the device. For a visual guide on how you can use this feature, check out this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7072889

      And, if you need help with and would prefer to speak to any of our support staff, you're more than welcome to reach out to us here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Pretty happy with my Google "home assistant" Nest Mini right now. Don't have any additional devices (thermostat, remote switches, etc.) but plan to get some. For now it's nice to have a voice-activated reference point for information, weather, traffic, music, and timer, etc. And it works great, I had some trouble connecting it in a second house, but did the reset thing and it worked fine. Looking forward to further exploration of its capabilities. Especially like the male voice option, something that Amazon's Echo (Alexa) does not have.

    I received the 2nd Gen Nest Mini with another purchase and am happy that not all that much has changed from the first version. I am told the speaker is a bit different and it has a different proprietary power cable (not so happy about that) but I am unable to tell the difference too much. I mostly use my Sonos One for listening to music and the Nest Mini is mostly a backup device. Setup is really easy through the Google Home app and alltogether I was happy to receive this for free. I am not sure I would pay $50 which is the advertized price for this item and I think $20-30 would be more appropriate.

    I added the Google Nest Mini to my Google Nest Mesh WiFi system for an added smart speaker. The sound is great and the kids have fun asking Google Assistant questions

    Perfect little extension of my google home network. Added this to a spare room to control lights and have for assistance in that room, and was very easy to install and hang (just used a small nail that it rests on using the hook in the back) and it stays on the wall slightly behind the TV and catches everything while being out of sight.

    Google products are my go to. I feel that they are better built and always function as intended. This one isn’t any different. Works exactly as it should and setting up was a piece of cake.

    I'm impressed with the sound quality of this speaker. I purchased two speakers at different times. I was introduced to these by our son. He's always up on the latest electronics/music......Classical Pianist. We were unsure if we needed additional speakers, but one on the patio and one in the bbq grill area on warm weather days beats our cell phone music hands down. Thanks for a great product .
