Google Home Mini

I got a google home mini for Xmas.. it’s an awesome product...full of information just ask it and it gives you a reply ...a bit like the missus...welcome to the 21st century Duck rogers!!

As a smart speaker alone it's pretty decent product. The sound quality is not bad for something at this size and price point. Where it has issue is its bluetooth connectivity. When I use it as a bluetooth speaker with my laptop, it will regularly drop its connection with my laptop. Sometimes it will be fine for a few hours, other times it will just drop within minutes. If you search the google support forums, you will find that its a common issue/flaw that they know about, but have yet to find a way to solving it even after all this time.

I love love love this. When I want to play music all I have to say is hey Google Play YouTube and boom YouTube plays not only that it tells me the weather for today as well just something small and great

Great product, easy to set up, very good speaker to blue tooth your music at home, and a affordable price, can get it in other colours to match home. I give it a ten

It is an egg timer. That's all.

Well over 80% of my inquiries lead to the most common response you will get - "I'm sorry, I can't help you with that, but I'm still learning...."

B.S. It is not learning. It is spying at best. And that part I don't even mind if it actually learned something from all that spying!

This device is about 10 years too early to market. It's a voice activated alarm clock and timer. That's all. Anything else it does is so mundane it lowers your IQ after listening to it.

Do yourself a favor and purchase this device after version 10.0 has been released. Right now, it's just a spying paperweight.

Got my Home Mini a few weeks back, took a spot my bathroom, sound is just right for the small space and come in handy during the morning for weather and local radio streaming. I have setup some automation with light switches that work great with voice commands too.

Once I received my Google mini set up was super easy. Once I got it going it was super handy .sucked that if the internet was weak or off it wouldnt work

I have 6 google homes just because its funny and they are the best things to have. I can talk to my friends across them, I can set timers and alarms as well as use the google to give me definitions of homework words. If you are thinking to buy the home pod, do not as these google mini's are way more superior and they actually speak to you coherently unlike siri.

I work in a home-office and have had an old radio playing music for the past couple of years. What I love about the Google Home Mini is that I can listen to multiple stations and ask it questions - its like having an assistant sitting beside me. I bought it just for the music but totally underestimated its other uses - definitely worth buying.

My daughter got a Mini for her birthday and she's completely smitten. She's also much more organised and on top of life. It's intuitive, plays her favourite tunes, and lets her know when her next uni assignment is getting close to being due.

I love my google home mini. It’s really easy to use and understands you fairly accurately. I have lights controlled by it, routines set automatically. It’s created so much ease in day to day things, knowing the weather and simply playing the radio when I get up. Highly recommend

app takes many times to find.finally says connect but won't.totally useless.glad i got it for free.anyone is welcome to have it before i smash it alright alright aliright ok ok

We have a couple in our house as well as google home and google home hub.
Kids love asking questions and hearing funny replies, getting instant answers on general knowledge, weather, time etc. Great for use as a timer and for listening to sleep sounds at bedtime.
It is annoying that you need to pay for music subscription and even if I have set something up with the home hub, not always guaranteed to work on the mini. Syncing issued. Voice ID issues sometimes too.
I think the quality of found is pretty good for music though.

Such a great thing to own. Helps everyone at home. Even with my sons homework. Super easy to set up and even easier to use. Great purchase! Only downside is, you need subscriptions for music :-(

Very easy to use and setup if you only have a few things that you want to control via the voice commands like a TV. If you start to introduce smart plugs, IR blasters, sound systems, lights, air conditioners etc then Google assistant cant control many of the more complex commands eg Home Theatres. You simply get a response "I'm still learning how to do this". There are also many many bugs, just too many to mention here that require fixing first. Give the product another 6 months to a year and I'm sure the majority of problems will be ironed out but for now its only good for turning things on and off, don't expect either the scenes or routines to work very well in advanced functions.
