    A great addition to our Google home line. Good sound with a good response time. Pairing up with your other Google speakers will make your home more fun. And casting your messages across the house without yelling is well appreciate it by everyone.

    If you are thinking of upgrading from the first generation to this one and mainly use it for music then this is a no brainer. The sound quality in the second gen is no comparison. I would say it’s even close to sounding as good if not better than the google home hub.

    I was a bit skeptical about buying at first because I wasn't sure if it was going to be clear. Let me tell you the sound and quality is wonderful.

    I already owned a Google Home Mini and I must admit that although they appear to be identical, this 2nd generation Google Nest 'Mini' is audibly superior to the first run mini. The sound quality is noticeably better (especially at higher levels) than the Home mini.

    The Google Home Mini puts all of the smarts of Google Assistant into a small and affordable package. The Mini sounds surprisingly good for its size and features a colorful design that can blend into your home's decor.

    My home is now all in the new age. The goggle nest mini is the best for just getting details whenever you ask it. Requesting to play music and call family and friends. Amazing Device.... even though I know someone is always listening (even when its off)... LOL

    The nest mini is a great little device that has a stronger sound than its predecessor along with a little hole at the back enabling you to wall mount making it wonderful for kids rooms especially. All in all a great device for the price especially when on sale.

    This was a replacement of the Nest Mini 1st generation. It was so easy to install, and it's definitely a product that we've come to rely on.

    Its literally so nice to just ask Google to play a song, turn off a light, pause my TV and broadcast a message on other speakers. I feel like I'm in the future haha!

    I purchased the Google Nest Mini 2nd Generation with Assistant from Best Buy. It does all that I hoped and more. It's easy to set up and use. I bought my 3 boys (ages 22-35) the Google Mini for Christmas 3 years ago they all still have them and love using them. I would recommend anyone considering this purchase to do so with the confidence they are getting a solid product.

    Love it! Very responsive to voice commands and recognizes different people through voice recognition. Good sound quality for a small speaker especially when you pair or group multiple Google Minis. We now have them in every room of the house!

    This device is absolute value for money. For the price, you already got a lot in the 1st generation Google Home Mini. The 2nd generation has colored lights and better sound than the 1st, that too at the same original price of the 1st.
