I have these mini google homes all over my house and have my big google home out of my bedroom. I love having all my google homes connected so I can be in one room and command for it to do something in my other room!

Great for 20 dollars on sale for black friday. The speakers is loud enough and with a couple more creates a loud surround sound experience. My only complaint is the base isn't very clear or loud.

Hi Jason,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. It means so much when our customers share their experiences. Indeed, this helps us get better.
If you haven't already, we recommend changing the audio settings of Nest Mini from the Google Home app to improve its bass and treble.
Here's how: - Connect your phone to the same Wi-Fi network as your Nest Mini. - Open the Google Home app. - Tap your Nest Mini. - At the top right corner of the screen, tap the Equalizer Settings. - Move the sliders under Bass and Treble to adjust.

Really nice color. Walked into bestbuy for a pickup in store order and these were on sale for half off, so i decided to grab one. I needed it for a gift for someone but if it wouldnt have worked out to give it to them i wasgoing to keep it. But i ended up gifting it i set it up for the person and instantly wanted one for myself so i actually stopped by bestbuy today 12/31/21 and got another one for me.

Quick and simple to setup and use. Music plays pretty good and loud. Kids love it in the bedroom. They use it alot setting alarms or playing music during homework. Does not take up any space.

I have the 1st and 2nd generation speakers. I would not replace any 1st gen with the 2nd gen speakers unless if you have an area where you use the assistant quite a bit. The on board assistant engine is much faster.

These are so convenient to have around the house. They are small but produce great sound. Simple request for alarms, timers and to dim lights or lower the AC are easy. Have one in almost every room of the house.

These are a great addition to your home if you like an assistant. Works with most IFTTT technology. I can control many devices from different manufacturers. Voice technology is always learning.

It's okay. Good for white noise. Fine for music. Fequently over-responds to/hears far away "hey Google"s for my other one (even though I have it at the lowest recognition level).

A little better Hub Mini

I have the older Hub Mini and Nest Mini. Nest has better sound recognition and can be wall mounted without additional hardware. Not much more beyond that.
If you have to choose between the two, go with Nest Mini.

I bought it for my roommate's birthday gift. After he got it, I can hear he uses this for forecast, local news, and so on every morning. I think this small smart gadget changes his lifestyle better. Recommended.

This is a nice upgrade from gen 1 in terms of being able to respond to voice-especially when room is loud or volume is up on the speaker. Hook on the back is nice to hang without having to purchase separate hanger.

Loved it the first night but then started having problems with it connecting to Spotify. Research revealed it seems to be a common problem. Really liked it before the problem. Good size and look. Returned for the Amazon Echo Dot.

Solid product for simple smart home devices

I have mainly used this product to control smart lighting and it performs well with voice commands, proximity sensors, and routines. It is just an OK audio speaker, with not a lot of bass output, most likely due to the size of its circuitry. It could do a better job of spatial imagining. I have paired it with another Nest Mini in the same room, to try and produce a stereo image. Build quality is relatively cheap. This product was on sale for $25 during Christmas. I would have felt much better spending $25 on the second one rather than $50. Does not work with some smart devices without a hub (didn't work with my main Samsung Smart TV). Set-up on some non-Google affiliated devices can be a bit tricky for non-techie people. Overall, it's ok. A little over priced at $50.

Hi ALONZO, thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We´re sorry to hear of your disappointment with some of the features with Nest Mini.
We´re aware that everyone will always have their own preference when it comes to sound quality. For this reason, we have enabled adjustment of the sound settings for our Google Nest devices, including Nest Mini. We recommend trying out this adjustment to see which audio settings fits your taste: Adjust bass and treble level: - Make sure your mobile device or tablet is connected to the same Wi-Fi or linked to the same account as your Chromecast, or speaker or - display. - Open the Google Home app. - Tap the device you want to adjust and then Settings and then Audio and then Equalizer. - Adjust Bass and Treble level.
We'd like to hear more about your experience with integrating Nest Mini with your other smart devices. This will help us to better understand the issue and figure out a way to improve your experience. Feel free to reach out to our support team for your support needs here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
