Google Home Mini
Google’s answer to Amazon’s Echo Dot, Google Home Mini is a compact version of the original Google Home device. It retains the familiar plastic-like base and top fabric enclosure (speaker grill) and makes the Google Assistant more accessible than ever in homes due to its petite size (about the size of a donut).
The Mini is voice controlled and works well with all Google products. The LEDs at the top, light up when the Assistant is listening. It streams music, control the smart home, search the internet, report live weather conditions, check the calendar and do lots more. It is priced at US$ 49 (starts shipping on October 19) and comes in three colours – Chalk, Charcoal and Coral.
