    Very easy to set it up in the Google Home app and quickly added it to a "group" of other minis in the house to create a stereo setup. Of course, you need to have a YouTube premium membership to play music on more than 1 speaker at a time.

    The Google nest mini is a great product to use around the house. In the morning you can get weather, local news, radio stations, & more just by saying Hey Google. It’s great at giving reliable information

    The truth is that it is good to start with, although the voice range is a little short, I liked it so much that I bought the older brother 10/10

    We are a Google smart home without a doubt. Google sometimes has a hard time understanding our request- which may just need a quick refresh, but we have 3 minis, the Hub & Nest Hub Max, the Lenovo Smart Display clock & the Phillips Hue Bulbs. It really is like having an assistant/

    This is an awesome product. I like its simplicity and design. The color is good. It is very useful in day-to-day activities like getting weather info. It has a physical button to turn off the mic if you want. Sound quality-wise, this has a decent sound quality which is well balanced for voice-based search results and music. The sound quality for music is a little less than what you can buy JBL, etc Bluetooth speaker. Also, it is a wire-powered device so you can not bring around a Bluetooth speaker. But it does best what it is desined for.

    This is one of two new Google Nest Mini's I've purchased from Best Buy in this month. I love the Coral color (The one in my office). I also purchased a Chalk colored one for use in another room. I use this particular Google Nest Mini in my office for my small business. This unit also controls a "Smart Switch" and four "Smart lights" in my office. Because Google Nest Mini, understands percentages, I can tell it to set a light at a specific dimmed percentage. Super helpful for when I am using my web camera. As a business / office tool, its super fast, 70 times faster than I could open up my computer browser, type in a question, search through answers for one I need. Google Nest Mini can access a wide variety of information databases, and so far has a 90% accuracy for retrieving specific information I have needed. It can also send links to that information to your Android or iPhone Google Home App. I use it to provide definitions to words, obtain information I need about a subject, tell me the time and weather, and research topics, provide definitions to words, and spell a word. With my connected attached music account, I can listen to music which sounds wonderful on this new second generation device. One thing to note, is that even though Google Music (being discontinued) and YouTube Music were originally free services according to Google Home App. They now require a paid subscription for either of those, or several other popular music streaming services. I was disappointed when I clicked on what were once two free music options, and still say free in the app, and were told that neither are free. I have it connected to Google DUO and also Google Voice to make phone calls. As an actual device, there have been a few times, I have asked this particular Google Nest to play music and it seems to encounter some kind of distortion that sounds like a poorly tuned in radio, at which point it becomes unable to respond, and I have had to unplug it for a few minutes. Plugging it back in, restores it to normal. It was exactly what I needed to help me multi-task in my office while I work on projects on my computer. Not a whole lot of information is provided in the included booklet, and it can take quite a bit of set-up time and searching via the Google Home App and Assistant App (via your phone), to fully utilize it's capabilities. However, your patience in investigating every tab and link, will pay off. One feature that sold me on this product, is it's ability to "Broadcast" a short recorded message to the other Google Nest Minis on the same wifi network. (You must have wireless internet to use this device). I also like that it can be set-up as a group, and play the same music on other Google Nests in the same "Home/Group" This model only includes a US 110-120V power adapter. Its is capable of speaking the most popular languages, which you set up in the Home App. Multiple versions of Spanish, middle eastern and Asian Languages. Including Chinese, Korean and Japanese.
