    To be honest I was expecting better quality. I don’t like the fact that you need to be connected to WiFi.

    It gets the job done as a smart speaker

    For the size, the speaker is very decent. I wish Google will integrate their speakers with hubs for ZigBee, Z-Wave, BT, and others. I guess everything is moving to CHoIP though, so I get it... but lots of people already have lights, switches, and outlets on the older protocols.

    Good product if you are invested in the google ecosystem. The google assistant is very accurate and useful; sound is quite good for a small speaker.

    Easy to set up. Works well and audio quality is very good. I use this primarily in place of a radio and to set timers and alarms. I gave this one as a gift, but later purchased another one for another room in my house. I also own a Google Home, which was given to me two years ago.

    I bought this to work with our Nest doorbell and it has done well. Early on, like week one it missed a few doorbell rings. But since has worked flawlessly. We also have Youtube premium which includes Youtube music so we can ask It to play music randomly.

    The Google nest mini is a great product to use around the house. In the morning you can get weather, local news, radio stations, & more just by saying Hey Google. It’s great at giving reliable information

    This replaces a 1st gen mini in a bathroom..This sky blue color looks better, sounds better, and can even be wall mounted if space is tight. Very happy, and old one is headed for a spare room.

    These relatively inexpensive smart speakers are great for asking Google assistant to do anything that does not require a video display (e.g. Google hub). You can plant these all over your house and pair them for stereo quality, although audiophiles may prefer the more powerful Nest audio.

    I got the google nest for free when purchasing a tv (thank you best buy) , but i wont be using the device so i’ll be gifting it to a friend who’s more into smart devices & tech in general than i am. I believe he owns a google nest already & is pleased with it so i know he’ll like having another one in his home.
