It's like everyone is shouting the same thing and no one is listening! They just want everyone to hop on board and steal our data. Simple marketing tactic.
Here in New Zealand they retail for $89, I got mine on boxing day for $50. Sadly the Google Nest Mini just came out here like a month ago so now I'm wishing I waited and bought that one. Oh well, I still love it
i lowkey feel like google is giving away the free google home minis for the same reason plankton was giving away bucket hats in the spongebob movie....
You can get these free now. All you gotta do is get into a college, pay 60k per year and you get your free google home mini through student Spotify premium :) hope this help.
I really wish that companies would add an internal battery so you can unplug and take it with you around your home. It's a small feature to add but something so useful IMO.
Yeah that'd be dope. I have a good home speaker and then a speaker to listen to music on when on the go. Would probably make it something more people would pickup if you could. Maybe Bose will do something like that
They are def giving these away free to everyone so they can have one in almost every house and have potential to listen to whoever they want at any time
Loved the video. Damn I could watch your videos all day, you're such a cool dude and insane quality on the videos. Simple idea- really well put together video on it. Good job mate.
He played it from TH-cam studio (listen to the Assistant say playing from studio) , which means the selection was from the videos he had uploaded only. Probably why it automatically played his videos.
I have the regular sized Google Home, and I am very happy with it. When I first got it, I was surprised by how well music sounds with it. Even though the mini is cheaper, I much prefer the regular sized Google Home. Good review of the mini.
But you can connect the Mini to a Bluetooth speaker. So you can use it like before, but if you start playing music it switches to the Bluetooth speaker, if it's on. You can also turn the speaker on later, it just switches instantly back and forth. :)
I have Amazon Dot and I absolutely hate it. It doesn’t seem to understand half of what my Google Home does. I’m definitely going to buy the mini to replace the hockey puck Amazong Dot.
Honestly, the lack of a line in makes it useless to me since my setup demands one which makes the dot the only choice for me. I like the product but that's kind of a big overlook in my opinion.
good deal and great review, liked! Google mini is a speaker phone too, you can call anyone unlike Amazon echo which calls only echo users currently and search results is limited.
Goober and Buddy Think of it thi way: Someone already owns the original version, and wants to access google home from every room. These things can be paired so if you have a big house, you can buy multiple minis and use them all together, you can even make announcements through these to play from every unit, such as dinner is ready etc
It's the speaker. For a device that is solely based on audio interaction, good speakers are pretty important. If you are okay with that then yes, it's good e ough for you
I'd love the hear your opinion between Amazon Echo and Google Home. Seems Google Home is more mature now with regards to home automation product support and the AI of Google is still the best out there. Why would anyone still consider the Amazon Echo?
I can imagine this being a controller for more than just a tv , windows , lights , AC ,heating ,coffee and many many others ... I hope that this type of home engineering will come mainstream soon !
After I saw how google home played mkbhd’s essential phone videos on his television I went out and bought three google minis and Chromecast and now I can turn my TV on with my voice....... nice 👍
Thankfully he didn't say 'Alexa' or my dot would have said: 'I don't know how to that's it, thank you guys for watching, see you in the next one, peace..'
haha yeah thats how they want you to think to continue consumerism ;) I finally figured it out but its still somewhat confusing(detailed explanation is given within google express after you click to shop on walmart): it will be a promo code after you claim it by Jan 15 (i guess you have to prompt receiving the code? unsure about that)- then i guess after you get your device and set it up for google home, you link walmart to express and then the promo code is waiting at checkout on the google express app or website. Offer expires on Jan 31.
hrweather right cool. tnks so much for the info!!... I don't mind them making it cheaper that way cuz I go to Walmart all the time(which I assume many do too) n planned to buy one anyways. but yeah worth mentioning so I'll edit the initial comment
Gabriel Fernandez - the problem with the echo dot is it's limitation of audio that it can play. You mostly have to have a paid subscription to do anything. The home products allow you to use the free version of Spotify which was what made me jump on it.
Got it as a gift. Love it. As for sound, I asked it to turn on my TV and my soundbar is on Auto on, and then whatever music I requested to play feeds through my soundbar. Audio problem solved. I love it love it love it love it love it love it
I'm outside a supermarket and inside I saw a google home mini in a sale for £29, I came out and got in my car to watch a review... I think I'm going to go back inside and get it 😂 cheers mate 👍
@@EgaTehPro right on! Will do. Thank you. Would you advice picking one up considering I got the Note? Or just in general really? For the price they seem neat. I'm back on a tech kick for the first time in years. I have just been kind of stuck to iOS and honestly didn't realize just how much red tape I had. I still love apple's OS for how clean, stable and good looking it is and I also favor the look and feel of their phones. That said, I was being choked out on there with no multi task, no picture in picture, no storage expansion... you literally can do only one application at time. I can do whatever I need on the note... it is much more like the pocket PC that I'm looking for where apple is just still a very reliable phone. I still use my 7plus for imessage almost every day, but I do believe I will stick with the note until apple can catch up on some things like multi tasking. Also, a massive factor that almost trumps all the one l mentioned previously, the notch. The fact that it impedes media in not only portrait but also landscape mode is almost insulting tbh. It's like having a glass of water sitting in front of the TV or some shit. I just don't know if I could do it even with all the other things adjuster. All that being said, I am almost at the end of my 14 day trial on the note so I have to set my choice in stone for at least a year and although I truly think I will, I am still a little worried. Hard to break that apple cycle even when its painfully obvious the Note does much more of what I need it to. 🤯🤯
I would love if they could fit a small battery in there so you could take it wirelessly, it doesn't matter even if it lasts 15 minutes. Just having that feature would be awesome!
I got one of these for free with my Spotify Family subscription. It just shipped and will be here sometime next week. After seeing this I can't wait to check it out!
agreed with the mute switch, it might've been easier for it to be a button. but the thing is, with the google home, there are light indicators that you can conveniently check, wether it's muted or not. but for the google home mini, they used the button to help the users understand more that it's on mute (granted that they flipped the switch rather than just saying it), as you can see there's a color indicator on the switch. haha just a random comment 3 yrs later, don't mind me.
Mainly sound. One thing most tech reviewers aren't talking about is how you can use the google home as a bluetooth speaker as well. So you can pair it to your phone for voice calls as well.
the sound on the mini actually sounds alot clearer tbh The google home mini is probably one of the best things to buy right now while sales are on well worth the money
Got mine on sale at Target for 39.00 plus 5% off for using their card. Never had anything like this before and I really like it.Nice review. It was very professional, clear and concise.
How do you set it to respond to "Hey Google" instead of "Okay Google"? I would much prefer that but there is no setting to change it on my Google Pixel.
Lawrence Lentini by default, on Google Home, it responds to both Ok Google and Hey Google. Not sure about mobile phones, thats not what the video covers
Yeah you dont have to change anything it will recognize both, thats why i think google is better because with alexa you must say the right words or it wont work
I've got a Nexus 6 running 7.1.1 (I know it's old but still an awesome phone) and it only responds to "ok google". I'm pretty sure only the home devices respond to "hey google"
Just wanted to tell you guys two things. 1) You can't tap and hold to enable google assistant anymore, you have to say the hot word. 2) The mute switch has now been fixed so now you can't mute the mini with your voice you have to use the switch
Jackyjo007 oh that's too expensive nobody cares about that . Google home mini will sell more cause it's ONLY 50 bucks . Still too expensive for me thought cause my parents would rather fucking spend 3000 dollars on a fucking couch but not buy me a Google pixel 2 xl. Ahhhhhhhhhhh . I will just become a male stripper/prostitute because I am hot and so I'll get enough money for a nice phone . But I'm only 16 so it's illegal but fuck it . I live like 35 minutes away from the most ghetto places in Chicago and I'll just go sell weed there or something . Cause I can't get a work permit cause my fucking grades are bad . So I'm forced to do that . Fuck my life . Fuck everyone .

No.
So a phone?
Just use a portable phone battery pack to power it.

like a bauss
He had to hit us with that flex lol
He played it from TH-cam studio (listen to the Assistant say playing from studio) , which means the selection was from the videos he had uploaded only. Probably why it automatically played his videos.
"Studio" is referring to the name of his tv that he has linked to google home
That face when it showed your Essential video. 😏

b_m_b Some say it doesn't have Bluetooth? Can I connect it other Bluetooth speakers?
the sound on the mini actually sounds alot clearer tbh
The google home mini is probably one of the best things to buy right now while sales are on well worth the money
THIS TH-cam NAME IS TAKEN SO DONT COPY IT I agreee I love my google home mini I just did my own review
Looks like a soap!
You are here because you had a free one from Spotify - cuz I am!
If they have the Google Home Mini why even consider buying the regular Google Home?
EverydayTechnology design I guess
EverydayTechnology slightly smaller speaker.
Bc Mimi’s a bitch
I have a google home a google home is considerably louder and also it has more surround sound so u can hear it better from all directions
Same thing I was thinking
Got mine on sale at Target for 39.00 plus 5% off for using their card. Never had anything like this before and I really like it.Nice review. It was very professional, clear and concise.
How about a banana for scale?
Pierre Dubois says the man with the micro penis
Sara Vega Why is the insult? Banana for scale is a universally accepted method to measure almost anything.
Nah it's OK, this little girl makes videos on her channel against Trump with a snapchat filter, I think the troll level is too high for me to handle.
Pierre Dubois is it hard to not pee all over your pubes?
Sara Vega what the fuck is your problem? You think you're being cool going around insulting random people, is that it?
Robots are always welcome in my home.
Until they rise and take over
You must be _Aku_ from Samurai Jack..
I love my sex robot
Sab K how lame you are man, almost felt sorry for ya, almost..
How do you set it to respond to "Hey Google" instead of "Okay Google"? I would much prefer that but there is no setting to change it on my Google Pixel.
Lawrence Lentini by default, on Google Home, it responds to both Ok Google and Hey Google.
Not sure about mobile phones, thats not what the video covers
Yeah you dont have to change anything it will recognize both, thats why i think google is better because with alexa you must say the right words or it wont work
If it's default, then why it doesn't respond when I say "Hey Google"? I tried many times already and it just respond with "Okay Google"
I've got a Nexus 6 running 7.1.1 (I know it's old but still an awesome phone) and it only responds to "ok google". I'm pretty sure only the home devices respond to "hey google"
Cyba IT on 6P 7.1.2 right now. "Hey, Google" produces the same result as "Ok, Google."
Yep. Going to be buying one soon. Maybe tonight !
This would pair well with chrome-cast audio.
Ian Schartner will it work with normal chromecast??
Yes it will work with;
Chrome-Cast,
Chrome-Cast ultra,
Chrome-Cast audio,
plus TVs with Chrome-Cast or Android TV built in.
I’m watching this after getting a free one from having TH-cam premium
TH-cam just gave me a free one.. Here to see what ots for...
Same I got the coral one, you can’t beat free!
How u get it for free? Link?
Saran Saravanan sorry for the lag, I got it free cuz I have TH-cam premium! But apparently they also gave it to those who have Spotify premium too
I got the charcoal one
TwisterTuff nice! I would’ve gotten charcoal if it was in stock haha
Just wanted to tell you guys two things. 1) You can't tap and hold to enable google assistant anymore, you have to say the hot word. 2) The mute switch has now been fixed so now you can't mute the mini with your voice you have to use the switch
Can you connect it to a Bluetooth speaker, allowing for improved sound quality?
James Anderson I would assume so, since that is what we do with amazon dot. And they are competitors.
I don't think so because he said it only has one port and I didn't see a mp3 jack anywhere
James Anderson only via Chromecast audio
Jacob Smith
Do you know what Bluetooth speakers are?
Probably with your phone.
You've mounted that LG wallpaper TV way too high on the wall. It needs to be lowered about 2 feet.
latrofu 😅😅😅
latrofu BRUH
Maybe he's tall
Now review the max!
your channel is such high quality, i love it! :)
What about Google home MAX??
How soon until Google makes a literal home?
It's not out yet.
not out yet
BRAVE yo your comment is good enough to have like 100 likes.
Jackyjo007 oh that's too expensive nobody cares about that . Google home mini will sell more cause it's ONLY 50 bucks . Still too expensive for me thought cause my parents would rather fucking spend 3000 dollars on a fucking couch but not buy me a Google pixel 2 xl. Ahhhhhhhhhhh . I will just become a male stripper/prostitute because I am hot and so I'll get enough money for a nice phone . But I'm only 16 so it's illegal but fuck it . I live like 35 minutes away from the most ghetto places in Chicago and I'll just go sell weed there or something . Cause I can't get a work permit cause my fucking grades are bad . So I'm forced to do that . Fuck my life . Fuck everyone .
