Great addition
A great addition to our out of the way den. We mostly use it for quick questions and timers, but it is so handy! Love it!

Inferior to Echo Dots and the Alexa ecosystem.
I decided to switch from the Alexa ecosystem to the Google assistant ecosystem because there were some annoyances with Alexa. I was excited to try the mini's because I read good reviews and read that the GA ecosystem was better than Alexa. However, after using them for a week I realized a few things. First, the Google nest mini audio was not even close to the audio of the 3rd generation dot let alone the 5th generation. The build quality was similar but the echo's are much heavy denoting a larger magnet and more solid state design. Another annoyance was the voices. You can change the voices but they don't sound as natural as the voices on the Alexa. The biggest problem I had was the google home app. It's terrible. The GUI is terrible, it's hard to use and disorganized. I preferred the alexa app much more on my iphone. With all of this I decided after using them for a week that I would return them. I'm back using alexa dots and I'm happy with the decision.

Hi Charzella, thanks for posting a review. We’re sorry to learn that you’re having issues with the voice command on your Nest Mini. Sometimes, your Nest Mini might not activate when you say “Hey Google” or “Ok Google,” particularly in a noisy environment. If this frequently happens, you can make it more sensitive to the Hotword. Retraining your device to better recognize your voice, and adjusting the Hotword sensitivity may fix the issue. Retrain Voice Match: - On your phone or tablet, open the Google Home app. - At the top right, tap your Profile picture or initial and then Assistant settings and then Voice Match. - Tap Teach your Assistant your voice again and then Retrain. Adjust how sensitive Google Assistant is to Hey Google: - Open the Google Home app. - At the bottom, tap Home. - Select your speaker or Smart Display. - At the top right, tap Device settings > Audio > “Hey Google” sensitivity. - Choose how sensitive you want Google Assistant to be when it responds to you. We value your feedback as we are always working to improve our products and services. If you need assistance, you can always contact our support team. We’d be happy to help and improve your experience here: https://support.google.com/googlenest/gethelp
