    Works well in a smaller apartment. Google Home App pairs well with the smart plugs that I purchased.

    We purchased this to use specifically with our Sony TV and sound system. Very happy we did, as this works seamlessly with the Sony products (Tried using Alexa with the Sony system first and found that Sony & Alexa don't really work that well together).

    Got it to announce the doorbell. I also sometimes use it to listen to music. The “Hey Google” is pretty erratic.

      Hi SIWA, we appreciate you for sharing your feedback about the Nest Mini. We’re glad that you like the Visitor Announcement feature, and that you use it to play your favorite music. But we’re sorry to hear of your poor experience with the performance of its Google Assistant.

      Google Assistant might activate even if you don't say “Hey Google” or “Ok Google” when it detects something that sounds similar. Also, it might not activate when you say “Hey Google” or “Ok Google,” particularly in a noisy environment. Retraining your Nest speaker, to better recognize your voice, and adjusting the Hotword sensitivity may be helpful with the issue. You may follow the steps on these help articles:
      - Check which devices are using Voice Match: https://support.google.com/googlenest/answer/7588195
      - Adjust how sensitive Google Assistant is to “Hey Google: https://support.google.com/assistant/answer/9712065

      We care about your experience. For more help, our dedicated team is always ready to provide you with services and assistance here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    This is our fourth Google mini in our home. Got this one for our deck to listen to while we swim in our pool. As always the sound is very clear. Love that we can hook our Apple Music and our serious and run it through the speaker.

    Very convenient to have this available. Sometimes a little wordy and the user must be cognizant of word choice and phrasing, but that seems normal to me. We definitely like it!!!

    I have two of these myself and they're perfect for placing in different parts of the house so I can listen to music or set timers in the kitchen. This one I bought as a gift for my brother for the same usage. I love the color and the ease of setup.
