    This device has a small design, which makes it easy to hide behind vases and other decor. Connects to other Google Nest products in the house. It also works as a great speaker.

    Doesn't work As it Should

    I got both the Alex and Google Nest mini; I actually bought several of each. It took me a few hours to really set both up, but I'm finding the Echo Dot to work better and actually do as I ask. I got the Google Nest Mini mainly for Youtube as I have a Premium account on Youtube. The employee at Best Buy assured me it would work great with Youtube, but apparently that information is false as at the moment there is an issue with this device working properly with Youtube. I know you have to be specific with what you say, but it doesn't play the right song half the time, or at all. It got the music right about 35% of the time if it is a popular song, while the rest of the time it played songs I never heard of, when i asked for something else. It won't play songs on my Playlists, even after looking it up and putting in the proper routine for it; it tells me that can't be played/work right now. reading comments from others online, I see they have the same issue. I will be returning two that I purchased as I was promised they would work for Youtube, when in fact they don't. I'm keeping my third for help with questions, as this device is still good for random questions and information, but I'll be relying on Alexa to play the music I actually listen to.
