Hefty cord somewhat limits where it can be placed, Videos are truncated in full-screen mode, You can't use voice commands to stream music from your own local server, You can use voice commands with only a handful of the 80+ streaming services Sonos suppor
The Echo Spot just might be the perfect smart speaker, with a versatility and fashion-sense that give it a sense of purpose and style.In a two-device race to rule table-top A.I, Google Home bests Amazon Echo in terms of audio quality, microphone range, d...
nice design, stable build, very flexible and reliable voice recognition, non-slip stand, a lot of configuration options, fast response to commands, also compatible with iOS
no Skills or API, concerns regarding data protection
Google wants the Home Mini in every home and to be fair that is not a hard want. The device is small, affordable and gives you a lot of functions for the price. It could do with more connectivity but is still worth recommending if you want to dip your toe...

Broadcast ability so I can let people know something without having to come downstairs, different room, etc. This works well in conjunction with a babyroom camera to broadcast “google want you to get some sleep”, 4yo is capable of playing that one Taylor
Touch controls are not as responsive as the Google Home (or I'm hitting them wrong), Cord is a bit short as I kind of want this on a wall, Audio quality while OK is not at the level the normal Home speaker even scaled back for size I hoped for a little be
I've got my 4yo the Google Kid account now, will be moving her over to that if just to get fewer T-Swift suggestions on my profile. That will also enable me to have Man Google voice for my profile, which amuses me to no ends and annoys the everloving crap...
For $50 or less, you're simply not going to find a better speaker that does so much. While Alexa still holds the crown for smart home integration, Google is catching up every day, and offers a considerably better virtual assistant than any other company o...
After using it for a couple of weeks, the Google Home Mini seems like a very good starting point for a smart speaker. It doesn't offer the best quality sound, but it is compact and also more affordable than Google's previous and current offerings. The Goo...
Speaker quality is actually pretty good. It doesn't have the bass to be used as a party speaker, but for listening to the radio and just filling the space with some ambient music it's more than up to the job.Volume is good too, in a large living room I'm...
Killer price at $49, Compact size doesn't take much room, Simple design allows it to blend in seamlessly, Same diverse Google Assistant functions as Google Home, Increased support for home control devices
Underwhelming audio performance, Touch surface isn't as responsive
The Google Home Mini is the perfect addition to Google's lineup. Quite frankly, it's the one piece that perfectly fills the void that the Google Home was unable to capture due to its higher price point of $129. At a mere fraction of that, the $49 priced G...
Abstract: The Google Home MIni was announced last week along with the Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL. The Google Home Mini is Google's 2nd smart assistant speaker. The size of a donut, it's available in 3 different colors, black, grey, and coral.The Google Home Mini is a l...
Pretty design, Google Assistant is more sophisticated than Amazon's Alexa, Low price makes it easy to deploy in multiples
Lousy for music reproduction, Compared to Amazon's Echos, Google Home devices aren't as broadly compatible with third-party products, Can be paired only with Google Cast-enabled devices
The Google Home Mini is a no-brainer for anyone who's already enjoying a Google Home, but it's not the right smart home controller for everyone...
