    Better than Alexa, in my opinion

    I love Google Nest. It’s better than Alexa because it does not ask to give a review on a Amazon Purchase in the middle of the night when we are trying to sleep. Plus, it connect easily to Spotify from across town so my child csn hear music.

    Coral is a great color for girls, much nicer than what I thought. Usage-wise it's the same experience using other Google Minis.

    I got this solely as a doorbell chimer for the Nest doorbell. I still use Alexa for most other things. Especially since this doesn’t sync with Apple Music.

    I used to be an Apple Man, and was extremely loyal to Siri...but since switching to the Pixel 6, I have been very very impressed with Google. Google. I never have any issues setting up routines or any devices. I plan on buying the nest hub and the Chromecast. I'm loving Google now!

    I purchased the Mini for my boss and his mom. My boss is a quadriplegic, so the Mini gives him a bit of independence. His mom is partially blind, so Mini helps her to make calls. I'm very happy with this plus the deal I received.

    The convenience of google is great but having to say what you want more than once to get what you want is annoying.
