Worked great until...
||Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I shut off the tracking features that google was using, then it made it fairly worthless. It could be just as functional but google chose to do this to leverage their customers into allowing them to listen in, access their contacts, and track their usage.

Posted .Hi Mytoys, thanks for the feedback, and we’re sorry to hear your experience with playing your own music playlists using your Nest Mini.
You can still play music using YouTube Music and Spotify for free, but you'll hear a station of songs inspired by the song, album, or artist. You may not get specific songs, albums, and/or artists, but you can ask for music based on genre, mood or activity. You can link your music services and pick a music service as your default to enjoy music from popular music services by artist, song, genre, album, playlist, mood or activity. This default service will be used first when possible. Please see the steps below:
- Make sure your mobile device or tablet is connected to the same Wi-Fi network or linked to the same account as your speaker or display.
- Open the Google Home app.
- At the top right, tap your account.
- Verify that the Google Account shown is the one linked to your speaker or display. To switch accounts, tap another account or Add another account.
- Go back to the home screen, and at the top left, tap Add, tap Music.
- To choose your default service, tap the music service you'd like to use. Assistant will use this service when you say “Hey Google, play music.”
Here are the list of music apps and partners you can use with your Nest Mini: https://assistant.google.com/explore/c/10/

||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Some of the prompts repeat ( “since this is your first time using - this feature,” .. when it is not) but I rarely use it to make calls so maybe thats why.?? Otherwise, as more things can connect to this device, the more Im going to like it.

I would recommend this to a friendTerrible Product! DOES NOT WORK AS ADVERTISED
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The 2nd Gen Nest Mini is terrible. All the claims google makes on what this device can do is a lie!! You can’t make a speaker group, pair two speakers for stereo sound, and you can’t move music from one speaker to another!!! Come to find out this has been going on since it launched (put in google search... “nest mini will not play in speaker group”) and see hundreds of threads making the same claims about these issues. Also Google’s customer service is terrible... they do not seem to care!!! These issues still aren’t resolved. Waste of money!!!
