    I am enjoying my Nest Mini (2nd generation). It was easy to setup and provides good sound. I use it everyday as an assistant. Recently I have been using the Nest Mini to stream radio content.

    Great but not necessarily the best for your needs

    Good product but not perfect. Choosing an environment is not an obvious decision as both Alexa's and Google's devices have it's pros and cons. Alexa may be better for smart home automation thanks to the routines and flexibility, but Google is much better for entertainment. While Google can cast to a Chromecast from Netflix, Youtube and others, Alexa can't. Google can also play music from Youtube music (in case you have Youtube Premium or Youtube Music) which Alexa doesn't do. The internet search is also much better in Google devices. The main cons in Google devices are that for home automation you usually need 3rd party apps, such as IFTT, which require a subscription to work.

    I bought this for my parents to use in their house to change it into a smart house. They use it daily especially with their GE colored lights.

    Came free for me with the Nest Thermostat and was pleasantly surprised about receiving this speaker. It’s small and easy on the eyes. I was planning on getting this anyways but got lucky with a free gift!

    Even though I live in a small apartment, I have one in every room. It's great for weather, music, podcasts, radio, lists, and really anything you can think of. The speaker is pretty good for such a small device.

    I found this so much better than the Alexa...was able to quickly able to integrate with my home automation system...very easy to use. Distinct advantage over Alexa is its international use.

    The speaker is much clearer and produces better sound. The hanging cutout is nice. The adaptor not being a standard USB connector is troubling, if the cord is damaged you'll need to buy a proprietary connector.

    Added a 2nd Mini to our house - so easy to get today's forecast, set alarms and timers, adjust our Nest thermostat and so much more, all hands-free. Easy to set-up and use. Highly recommend.

    For the price its great! The speaker lacks bass for sure, however I dont think it would be fair to expect great sound quality with how inexpensive it is. However, the voice recognition is amazing. And connect smart home devices to it through the Home app is simple and works flawlessly.

    I received this free with a tv purchase. I didn't really know what I would do with it. It was very easy to set up and is very easy to use. It is great fun to walk in the door and call for music to fit your mood.
