    You don’t realize how awesome smart homes are until you fully experience what you can do with one. I could sit here and type for hours the capability of this device, but I recommend you just go out and try it for yourself. This is the second generation google nest (previously known as google home) and they made several small changes, the main one being the quality of the speaker. It’s night and day difference in quality. Being that the 2nd generation is only slightly more in cost it’s worth every penny to skip the 1st generation.

    On a cold winter day, I ordered a tv from Best Buy, it came with a free nest with that purchase. I enjoyed the tv, but wondered what to do with the nest. On Christmas Day I realized that I forgot to buy a gift for my brother in law, so I took this unopened free nest and wrapped it up and gave it to my bro in law as a gift. He loves it, he told me that the nest is the best. I believe him, he’s a pretty honest guy and knows tech. If you’re honest and know tech and are a brother (or sister) in law, you will like it too, I suppose.

    Nice entry level Google Smart speaker

    My first Google smart speaker. I got it since it was cheap (was on sale and used some free Best Buy rewards). I’m happy since the speaker is loud and I can use it with my Apple Music, SiriusXM radio and control some compatible home devices. I would hear some pop sound from the speaker but I’m guessing that’s while I’m listening to some music while using the Google Home app to setup devices and services (not a show stopper).

    • Brand response from Nest Support
      Posted .

      Hi there EJReviews, thanks for choosing Nest Mini. We´re sorry to hear that you were hearing some popping sound.

      Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try to out:
      - Reboot Nest Mini. Disconnect the power cable and reconnect it.
      - Reboot router. Power off the router and power it back on. Note: Most routers just require that you unplug the power source and then plug it back in to reboot.
      - Try to play music from another supported app and check if it's choppy on both services
      - Move your Nest Mini closer to the router and test.

      If the issue persists, we may need to take a closer look at your Nest Mini, to see how we can provide you a better experience. You may reach out to any of our support agents here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp Nest

    I have had a Google Home for about a year now and been thoroughly enjoying it and adding home automation to the system. Recently I just moved and decided to get a Nest Mini for another room in my house. It's only $20, which in and of itself is GREAT! The fabric finish on the top is high quality and has sort of a chic feel to it. There's also a slot on the back so you can mount it on a wall if you want! I never knew that! Will definitely be buying more for each space in my house.

    I got this along with a Nest doorbell and so far have also synced it with my Roku tv and Samsung refrigerator as well. It seems to work pretty good however I think overall my Alexa works a little bit better.
