    Google integration

    I like Google smart devices because of the integration with other Google services. Although not perfect, Google also seems to do better with "random" questions than its competitors due to it being powered by Google. I find the smaller speakers aren't always as responsive to verbal commands than the larger counterparts, but for the cost, they're good for scattering around the home.

      Hello pseudosphere, thanks for sharing your feedback with us on the Nest Mini. We hear your concerns about the performance of its Google Assistant.

      Your Nest speaker could be having trouble connecting to Google, and you can try these simple steps below that may improve your experience:
      - Check your Wi-Fi network for possible congestion. Relieving some of your connected devices may help free up some bandwidth space.
      - Check the distance between the Nest speaker and your router. Ensure that it is within a line of sight from your router.
      - Check for wireless interference with other Wi-Fi hotspots or appliances and devices nearby.
      - Restart Nest speaker and router to refresh the connection.
      - Reset your Nest Mini.
      You can also try to retrain your Nest Mini to better recognize your voice. See the steps below on how to do this:
      - On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app
      - At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match.
      - Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain.

      We’re always here to help improve your experience. For further assistance, you’ll find us available at Google Nest Help pagee here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This is a Christmas gift so can't respond about this particular one. However, this is a replacement for one that we LOVED until we didn't. For no apparent reason it said it was no longer connected and we nor anyone else could fix this. Hence, the 3 stars. If this one does the same thing we will be done.

      Hi GJ48, thanks for sharing your feedback and experience with using the Nest Mini, and it’s unfortunate to learn that your previous Nest speaker stopped working properly, and that no one could fix it. If you’re willing to give us another chance to investigate what happened, please visit us anytime for further assistance. Our support team is always ready to help you with any concerns about your Nest speakers here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest
