Love my Google Assistants... Gave my father one of my older Gen 1 ones and got this 2nd Gen to replace it... Love it

I love having these around the house so that we have an intercom system of sorts. We frequently use them to play music or for alarms as well. It's convenient to ask Google questions without typing or talking into the phone or laptop & some of the quirky features are fun when bored.

This the third Mini Google Assistant I have in my system and I must say the Nest Mini (2nd Generation) unit offers much improvement over the others. The sensitivity as well as the speaker is better. Music has a much clearer and definite sound. A great improvement!

Easy set-up and good quality. Decent sound when playing music/audiobooks. The only negative is that if you have an Android phone, there are problems with which device acknowledges the voice commands. Example: sitting in my office with my phone and nest mini and say "Hey Google, send a text to dad" - instead of the phone doing the task, the mini takes over and says "Sorry I can't send texts yet". Very annoying. Almost wishing I went with Alexa just to avoid this.

I have gen 1 home mini's all over my home. There is not a HUGE difference except maybe in the sound quality. It has an extra far field mic but it still seems like it is hard to wake the device. However if you want to listen to some tunes while cleaning the house, getting a few of the these and put them in a speaker group will have you bumpin. If you are in need of a replacement or never bought one at all it is definitely worth getting.

My new Nest Mini (2nd Generation) with Google Assistant - Charcoal is an awesome addition to my home. It can be set to give daily reminders, appointments & alarms plus so much more. I would advise that everyone have this device in their home. Thanks Best Buy for having the lowest prices anywhere for this item.

I love this mini. it sits by my bed and wakes me up with a beautiful tone alarm. The sound is amazing. The music sounds wonderful. She gives me the weather every day and if I ask, for the week. In fact she answers all of my questions. This google mini was definitely a good purchase for me.

I was pleasantly surprised at how much I am enjoying using the google nest mini. It is easy and effortless. It is there when you need it to be. The speaker produces a quality sound. After having it less than a month and having so much fun with it I just sent one as a gift to someone.

This product has an easy setup and a stellar sound.

I purchased this to place in my bathroom and I've never been happier. I use this to play news podcasts in the morning while I shower and get ready for work. This is easily mountable to the wall and I can control it with my voice no issue. If I ever move into a house I will buy another one for all my bathrooms.

I bought this along with a hub. The broadcast feature is nice bc I can tell my kid dinner is ready without having to leave the kitchen. You can customize it to recognize your voice from others in the house. I tried to turn my son's lights off and ended up turning it off in my bedroom! You just have to be a little specific.

Nice sound small compact control are fast and easy

This is my third speaker. Bought it for our covered patio, even though it's not listed for outdoor use the price is so low that if it lasts a couple years it'll be worth it.

Bought the google home mini for my mother in law, she's been having some health issues and has been wanting a smart speaker in case she needs to make an emergency call in case of her health issue. it picks up her voice from anywhere and has multiple language options!

I received a Google Assistant free when I bought my wife a new phone. I had a lot of fun with the assistant, so on Black Friday I bought 2 of the 2nd generation ones, on sale. Now I have one in 3 different rooms. I use one to listen to on-line radio stations instead of using a radio. Ask the assistant to tell you a joke.

I purchased this item based on popular demand and use by others. Most likely I will gift it to someone as I find little use for it other than asking the weather. My grandson talked me in to buying this after he showed me all he does with it. If you have other smart electronics this may be a great item to own.

This was free with a TV that I bought, and I thought about re-gifting it because I don't like the idea of having a microphone always listening to me. But I hooked it up and sort of fell in love with it. It has really good sound and it also has a switch on the side to turn off the mic. So I guess it's a keeper after all!

This was a very easy addition to get the google assistant near the back door. When the wife and daughter come in from the carport in the dark, they just ask the Google Assistant to turn on a lamp and they can turn it off with voice, app, or on a Nest display, any where in the house.

This is my second Google Home. It is a great addition to the home. I can play music. Get reminders. Set dates. Make calls and all things an assistant does. I like this device. I am thinking about buying one for my mom. She is getting older and can use a mini assistant like the Google Home.

Given its relatively low price, the sound is extremely impressive and loud enough for a big area of space. However the Google Assistant still needs to integrate better with other devices such as my phone. They sometimes responded together (like when I tried to adjust the volume of the nest mini, it adjusted my phone instead). The device also gets really hot but let's hope it is how it's supposed to be.. anyway overall still very worth the money.
