Customer Ratings & Reviews

I got this to compare to Alexa, and after several months I have to say I find Alexa to be more user friendly. Example, the wife likes to sleep with music playing, so she's got this playlist she built on Youtube, we try to get the Google Nest to play it and it's like pulling teeth. Imagine you say "OK Google, play George Straight, all my Ex's live in Texas" and the Nest replies "OK Playing "Die M-Fer Die, by Willie D of the Geto Boyz"... or vice versa. That's the kind of matching we get, Ask for it to play something and you have to be like "Play X song, By X artist, from X album, released X day, on Youtube/or whatever music service" any less specific and the Nest just seems to be like "Hey man that's great and All, but I'm going to play what I want to listen to, buckle up!.

Our Google home is in the kitchen and we use this as a companion for our upstairs loft. Works with all of our Phillips lightbulbs and nest products.

Nice to be able to control lights and set timers from another location. Can also play music and ask the usual "Hey Google" questions. Still learning all the uses!

I have turned off the microphone. Only use for speaker to cast XM radio in my kitchen. Put it on top of my refrigerator and it's a nice sound for that area.

Great product, I just wish the charcoal nest mini came with a charcoal cable instead of a white one. The sound is of higher quality than our original big google home! We put a couple around the house to work with our hue lights.

I love my google mini...we have a smart home and we are able to turn things up and down / switch them on and off with just “hey google...” Very convenient!

We used them initially as intercoms throughout our house . After using them for a month we now use them all the time and for everything we can

I love these things. The sound is good but not great. I have for every room. If you have google home set up, then I would recommend them.

As always, the mini nest is a winner. It is so small and works wonderfully. I am planning on another one for the back bedroom.

We have four of the mini speakers. We needed two additional to have the whole home connected. We really like how small they are and discrete.

One of the Best speakers, especially if you use them as a whole set with multiple ones

I didn't think that I would use this. It came free with my Nest. Now, I use it to tell me the weather, call people, control my Nest and other tasks.

Love it, new google smart speaker has more base and range

Really enjoying this and plan to buy another ss a gift

You cannot go wrong with this device, It used to be called google home mini. Seems now everything falls under next. Very easy to setup and use.

Best thing ever. I love Google so I use the nest mini to listen to my music and other things. Got a few as gifts and is so easy to use. Love it.

Still learning about all the capabilities but we are enjoying the ability to play music, set timers or alarms, turn lights on or off - it's loads of fun

Nest mini is a cool little device...lets you stream music, run thermostat, set routines etc. Would recommend for use in helping set up a smart home.

this is a great convenience. I use it to listen to music and local news, and answer questions as I'm working on the desktop. It's easy to use.

Love this product. Wish the HomePod was this smart. Very intelligent and the sound is decent. I use it all the time to research information.
