    I was skeptical of getting a smart home device, because I didn’t see the use of it. Now I’m addicted. It is so nice to be able to walk around and ask google questions or to play music or to turn the lights on. We got a smart thermostat too so I can be under the covers upstairs and ask google to turn the temp up without having to get up.

    I have these in multiple places throughout the house and while I prefer it to the Alexa my only critique is that there isn’t a battery base option to make it portable.

    It's all good thanks, good product, but there is no way to change the name to ask for things, I think they should implement new functionalities

    I'm delighted with the sound reproduction of these speakers. The price is very reasonable and affordable. My only drawback is I didn't purchase these sooner. I plan on gifting our children with a set of these on their birthday .

    Got rid of all Alexa's in the house since they cannot answer the questions that the Google smart speakers can.

    The new version is more responsive than the previous generation. The features are expanding as google develops them. The Nest Mini works with my Sony TV and it works very well for hands free navigation.

    when working is great but often disconnects

    I’ve had this for a few months now and also have a Google Home Mini. The Nest Mini is great when it works but it unfortunately keeps disconnecting from my WiFi, unlinks my home, resets itself, and needs to be manually reset fairly often. My previous mini, in the same location, wasn’t like this and isn’t like this in it’s current location. I can only hopefully assume that it’s my specific device that is defected and not the whole Nest mini line.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
