Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great google hub for bedrooms and small areas. It can be hidden behind something if you don’t want it seen.

I bought this for my daughter, as she needed more at her new apartment, and I wanted to keep mine. I also have an Amazon echo. I use both to listen to radio stations (local NPR and a couple of 70's hits stations). Although both devices operate and look the same, I found that "Alexa" seems to work more consistently. Nest needs to be unplugged and plugged back in to recover from deafness sometimes. Also, to be very specific, I listen to "Classic Hits 99.3" from the Finger Lakes area of New York. This is a "Tune-in" listed station, which both platforms use to play several radio stations. Well, Amazon echo ("Alexa") plays it, but Nest Mini ("Hey Google") does not - it understands it as another station, and there's no way to fix that.

Love this device. Started out with just testing one, and now we have them in almost every room.

Surprisingly good little speaker. Its nice to have little speakers everywhere for a smart home.

Works really well as part of an integrated google/nest home. I prefer it to Alexa by a long shot!!! Always understands us!!!

Got 2 in order to link and set up stereo group, BT lags slightly with video but otherwise an awesome smart speaker with a kick

The Nest Mini 2nd Gen is a convenient way to add Google Support to a new space in the house and is small and blends in quite well.

Got this for my wife. Decent device but reduced functionality over the other more expensive devices.

Makes your life super simple! Easy to use and very convenient. I use this in my home office to remind me of appts. Highly recomend.

If you're invested in the Google ecosystem, this is a must have. Compared to the Home Mini that it replaces, it has improved controls including a play/pause button on top (like the Home mini was supposed to have) and lights for the side volume buttons. The audio quality is slightly better overall, and fine for a secondary room or occasional music, but the Nest Audio would be a better choice for frequent music playback. Still, it's an excellent choice if you prefer Google over Alexa.

I just needed a Nest smart speaker to complete the Nest set up I already had at home. Now my Everywhere music group is complete.

This little guy packs a lot of power! One of the best investments I’ve made so far, great product for a great price!

Added to the household of hey Google. Everyone has their own. Great to broadcast when dinner is ready!

It kept disconnecting from the internet, so it would just stop playing music and “I can’t connect to WiFi right now. Please check your internet connection...” It became so frustrating that I switched to Amazon Alexa. No issues. Unfortunately I couldn’t return the Nest Mini since I got rid of the packaging.

I love it, it sounds good so far to me. And the packaging is nice but I will review again 6 months to keep you updated.

My daughter bought this for her father and brothers for Christmas. They all loved it. Works great with no issues.

This is the 5th one ive bought for my smart home we love them

I now have 2 of these little ladies. They make great assistants, answering questions, making phone calls and much more.

My kids love it, easy to set up. Does exactly everything I wanted it to do. Recognizes when I speak or ask it for information.

Mother enjoys my google mini for music and setting timer and so much more so I got her one.
