    This is my second one. I put in my garage when working on my car. It picks up wifi 70 ft away in my detached garage. I like to play music from it. The sound is nice for the size of it.

    Amazon echo, Google nest to be honest their all the same. I like both products it doesn’t stand out from its competitors. Their all the same in the end it’s up to you what you prefer.

    A compact smart speaker

    Very easy to setup and like the design. Also nice that you're able to hang this on a wall so it doesn't clutter your counter top space. One nit picky thing is that sometimes it doesn't always respond to your "Hey Google" prompt, so I end up saying it twice...

    Not so smart

    You might do better to install smart home devices that are not dependent upon a remote server. The Mini works kind of, but is frustrating to set up to do everything it advertises to do. Google doesn't really support their products very well. My GE C smart lights don't work with each of the three Google and one Nest Minis that I have. I also have one Sonos One speaker that is semi-Google compliant, which does a better job controlling these lights. After some long troubleshooting sessions with Google and GE, Google said oh-well, your Mini is out of warranty. GE actually sent some replacement bulbs which didn't work with the Google Minis but did work with the Sonos One and with the GE app on my smartphone.

    Love these google home devices for the most part SO convenient when paired w chrome cast to be able to tell it to play stuff on my tv hands free, but Bluetooth connection is sketchy sometimes drops randomly / won’t connect to my record player whatsoever which is a disappointment

    Works great for boosting a weak wifi signal. Depending on the size of your house you may need more or less. For my needs I am able to stream movies without loss of speed or quality.

    It's a great little product when it works. I've had 3 in recent years that all start great but after a while just randomly stop connecting and I cannot set them up or reset them.

      Posted .

      Hi Evarg017, thanks for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that you’re having connectivity issues with Nest Mini.

      Try to reset Nest Mini by switching the mic off located on the side of your device. The lights will turn orange. Press and hold the center of the Nest Mini, where the lights are on top. After 5 seconds, your device will begin the factory reset process. Continue to hold for about 10 seconds more, until a sound confirms that the device is resetting.

      If you still cannot reset the Nest Mini, we may need to take a closer look at the issue. Please reach out to our support team, we’d be more than happy to help and improve your experience. You can reach out to us using this link: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Purchased two of these as incentive raffle gifts at work. As previous owner of Google Home, I thought these would be cool, simple tech gifts that anyone could appreciate.
