    Google mini is the smart speaker to get it. Good sound quality and even "Hey google" responds very quickly. Really impressive.

    Great for small rooms. Unobtrusive and attractive. Listen to radio or set an alarm. Listen to a story or a joke. Lots of great options.

    Nest Mini is so far good. Have been using it for more than a week now. Not sure if records what we talk about if the mic is on unmute. But it is a quick tool to get some quick answers instead of taking the phone and typing.

    Love it but the only complaint is that when connected to Bluetooth it doesn’t stay connected long and then it’s difficult to reconnect.

    • Brand response from Nest Support
      Posted .

      Hi there, MichaelM! Thanks for reaching out to us. We're sorry to hear that your Nest Mini sometimes activates on its own. Adjusting your Nest Mini's mic sensitivity and retraining it to better recognize your voice can be helpful with the issue. Check out the steps below:
      Retrain Voice Match:
      - On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app.
      - At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match.
      - Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain.

      We also recommend changing your Nest Mini's hotword sensitivity:
      - Open your Google Home app.
      - Select your Nest Mini.
      - At the top right, tap the Settings (Gear) icon.
      - Then tap Audio.
      - Then tap "Hey Google" sensitivity and adjust the slider to make your Nest Mini more responsive to the hotword.

      If you need further assistance, we recommend contacting our support team here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    Decent, we’re not ingrained with the Google ecosystem, so this really only answers our questions and settles debates. But I believe we got this in a bundle so no downside.
