    I needed to add another Mini to my collection to put in a room that we have recently started using more often. I like to listen to SiriusXM via Google Assistant tools and in most cases, I tie the devices to better sounding bluetooth speakers. For spaces like the one where I placed this unit, though, the extra expense of a bluetooth speaker is unnecessary. I never liked the sound quality of our older minis, but found that the improved quality of the Nest Mini is adequate for occasional use as it is in this location. If I start to use the room more, I'll consider investing in a companion bluetooth speaker to get even better quality.

    Love the small form factor and easy setup. Everything together in one place on “google home” app. Connects and easily controls comparable devices in my smart home collection.

    I bought this nest for my legally blind aunt. She is now able to make calls, turn on her tv and change channels, set alarms to wake her up and find out who’s at the front door without opening her door. It has been a Godsend!

    The new 2nd Gen NEST mini is fantastic. Don't let people tell you that it is the exact same as the old HOME mini. NEST mini has a better speaker, and it does make a difference. just be aware that NEST mini is power with new 15V NEST power supply and NOT by a simple 5V USB power supply. Sound is very good, so i will buy more of them. and will put them in pairs to play true stereo sound. So many uses with the Google Assistant, possibilities are endless

    Wonderful and powerful little speaker with the www at the tip of your tongue. Second gen is most potent than the first. Bass is strong but artificial sounding if you are an audiophile. Can hear the occasional secondary tone not in the source music. So convenient though. Worth having in every room if you’re the quizzical type who always searches for knowledge, or if you like seamless audio through the house.

    Nest minis are perfect for what we need it for. My mother fell and didn't have her phone with her. She broke her back. We went out and bought the minis and programmed my name and phone number in the minis. Now if she falls she can ask to call me and I can talk to her directly through the device. I strongly recommend this product. You can get updates, listen to music, find out the weather ect.

    Works great! I have 2 mini nests and 1 nest. Have them all connected and with play together. Only reason I gave 4 stars is because sometimes they disconnect from the WiFi. Not sure if that is a fault in the product or in my WiFi. I know I have issues sometimes, but can not be sure
