    The mini is a great addition to a google home network or as a stand alone. We added this one to our master bath so my wife could use it to stream music while she showers and gets ready for work.

    I have a few of these around the house. My son set it up so that we can talk to each other in different rooms. We even use it as alarm clocks to make sure we are all awake in the mornings.

    Replaced the first generation device as the manufacturer abandoned the product (wouldn't provide updates)... The new device works great with additional features but still has some voice recognition issues... Good that we were able to buy it at the Thanksgiving sale.

    It is good to have when I misplace my phone. The volume tends to be low even at the highest range. It is nice to get up in the morning and be able to ask about weather and news. I feel more secure with it because I can ask it to call emergency if I have one.

    These are great I now own 6 purchased at different times of the year and will but more at some point. All 6 were on sale 18 to 27 dollars and for the money that are worth it.

    This came free with the new Sony TV we bought for our son for Christmas. He has Android and loves that he can connect his Samsung phone and TV through the app and control the TV with his voice.

    Only bought two at first, but when I realized how much more convenient they are, as opposed to carrying your phone everywhere, I had to buy two more. Smart home, here I come!

    I love my Nest Mini speakers, they're wonderful. I use them as radios, alarm clocks, white noise machines, joke-tellers - you name it! The Charcoal color looks very nice.

      Posted .

      Hey RealDeal, thanks for giving us feedback on the Nest Mini and we‘re glad that you like it. We appreciate you for sharing your concern about your privacy.

      Google Assistant might activate when you didn't intend it to because it incorrectly detected that you wanted its help - for instance when there is a noise that sounds like ""Hey Google,"" or you manually activate your device accidentally. If that happens, and your Web & App Activity is turned on, you can say, ""Hey Google, that wasn't for you,"" and the Assistant will delete what you said from My Activity. You can also review and delete your Assistant interactions in My Activity at any time. If Google Assistant activates when you didn't intend it to, and your Web & App Activity setting is disabled, your Assistant interaction will not be stored in My Activity. To better tailor Google Assistant to your environment, you can adjust how sensitive your Assistant is to activation phrases (like ""Hey Google"") through the Google Home app for smart speakers and smart displays.

      We keep your personal information private, safe, and secure. By default, we don't retain your audio recordings on Google servers. You can decide to save your audio in your Google Account to make Google speech products more helpful to you and better for everyone. Visit your data in the Assistant to learn more about how your data makes the Assistant work for you.

      We care about your feedback and experience. If there’s anything we can be of help, please contact us anytime at the following link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    You should have one in every room. It plays nighttime sounds, settles arguments, and tells all your smart devices what to do!

    Love these. Own four. Very convenient and the ability to setup speaker group is awesome. Cheapest way to obtain whole house audio. These pack more bass than the first generation.
