The Google Home Mini puts all of the smarts of Google Assistant into a small and affordable package. The Mini sounds surprisingly good for its size and features a colorful design that can blend into your home's decor
Extremely affordable, Does everything the bigger Google Home can do, Manages many popular smarthome devices, Speaker sounds pretty decent for its tiny size
Microphones aren't very good for voice calling, Doesn't have as much third-party support as Amazon's Alexa, Somehow still doesn't support professional Google accounts
There's no doubt that Google Home's capabilities have improved significantly over the past year. I called the original device "little more than a toy" last year, but now it's a legit competitor to Amazon's Echo and Alexa. The Echo might technically have a...

Cheap way to try Google's voice features, Discreet, cute design, Google keeps adding features
Audio quality is poor, No Bluetooth A2DP or 3.5mm output, Echo Dot can still be found cheaper
At $49, the Google Home Mini is undoubtedly a more affordable way to wade into Google's vision of the voice-powered world. Indeed, even with the Google Home's recent $109 promotion, you could outfit two rooms with its Mini sibling and still have change. W...

The marketing behind the Home Mini says 'Small and Mighty'. Definitely, a suitable slogan for it as other than bigger sound, a no compromise, smaller Google Home. All at a fraction of the price of $49 while many Pixel 2 pre-orders will score you one for f...

Abstract: My Google Assistant is many things, but it's mostly a meteorologist. I work 40 miles from my apartment, and the Bay Area's many microclimates mean I'll experience several weathers between my door and my desk. The questions come in the same order every mor...

Attractive design, Inexpensive, Great audio quality for size, Can control Android TVs and Chromecast
Hard to see status lights from across room, Doesn't work with as many smart-home devices as Alexa, Can't pair with Bluetooth speakers and no line-out
When it debuted last fall, the Echo Dot made big waves for its low price; it has never been easier to get Alexa in your home. The $49 Google Home Mini is poised to do just that for Google's Assistant. Not only is it inexpensive, but it also outperforms th...
That's it? Well, yes. That is it. The Home Mini does everything the larger Home does, and there's no need to go over all those features again. It also seems appropriate that the mini speaker gets a mini review.New Home features like finding your phone, ta...
Abstract: Earlier this week at an event where about half a dozen new devices made their debut, Google introduced the Home Mini smart speaker to the world.Since the holiday season is the number one time of the year to buy a smart speaker, Home Mini and Echo Dot sal...
