    I started with the google hub and I have not stopped buying extra pieces yet. For this speaker to be little, it sounds pretty good.

    Small, unobtrusive, responsive, and looks great. Easily linked up to my Google Home app. Not bad audio for its size, either, although don't expect anything great.

    This works great for what I need. I’m not sure what the other hubs are used for, this here is all I think you would need.

    This works very well and integrates seamlessly with our Nest WiFi system. A great item to have in the kitchen and anywhere you want to listed to music without having to fuss with a stereo.

    2nd Generation of the Nest Mini Smart Speaker has a great appearance. The pucks are the perfect size to easily hide around your room for easy use of the Google Assistant.

    I placed this on my bathroom. I use to play music or podcasts on it. Usually paired to my speaker in my kitchen. It does lack base so don’t expect the best quality. But it’s convenient.

    The google ecosystem is not bad by any means. The vocal commands seem to do great, I’m just not in love with the audio quality, then again I don’t see this as a audio solution. Just food for thought for anyone thinking they’ll get some amazing sound from a package this small. For the money though, a great buy.

    Nest mini is useful if one has google compatible smart devices around the house, it can help to control those devices using voice and also act as hub for connected devices, it doesn’t have the best sound as music speakers if one intend to use it as such there’s better options.

    Upgrading form the older Google Home mini. Better sound quality was my main reason for the purchase and I am not disappointed. Can even use them in tandem for a "stereo" system. Neat!

    the item itself is great but after a half and half of having it, its starting to crackle. So i was going to do an exchange. Same one, works well.

    If only it could stay connected to my device. Whenever I leave the house. It gets disconnected which is understandably normal but upon returning, I have to almost reinstall the whole application again and it just sucks

    Worth the buy if you have devices that can connect to the google home, if not wouldn’t come in much use. The sound quality is pretty bad, but gets the job done if convenience is your priority. Disappears into your room, with a nice elegant design
