If you've seen the advertisements on TV, everyone seems to have one around and your colleague does nothing but tell you about how fantastic his new Smart Home is, it's time to find out more about the smart device made by Google. Google Nest, as well as Google Home, can be used both as a content speaker and to control other devices in the house with voice commands.
If you think it is useful only if connected to other Smart devices you are wrong, read on and you will discover all the functions and why it can make your life easier.
Google Nest is an intelligent speaker, equipped with a microphone, which can be deactivated at any time using a physical button, which allows you to easily and quickly manage multimedia accounts and various household tools within your home. Using it is really simple, all you have to do is say the words āOk Googleā or āHey Googleā, the small base will light up making it clear that you are listening; at that point you can ask him anything you need.
When was Google's first Smart speaker born? The device was first introduced to the US market in November 2016, as a competitor to Alexa Echo, introduced by Amazon in 2014.
Google Nest Mini is nothing more than the second generation of Google and its Google Assistant speaker. Smaller and more powerful than the first version, it is very similar although it actually has some interesting differences and novelties.
The first and most evident novelty is in the Design. The Nest Mini includes the integrated screw mount which makes it more flexible when it comes to placement, since the wall option is integrated unlike the Google Home Mini which requires an additional accessory
Another feature not to be underestimated is sustainability. For the new device there was no lack of a new "greener" approach. For the new product, in fact, the aim was to use sustainable materials by making the speaker with 35% recycled plastic and the fabric with recycled bottles, showing Google's commitment in the fight for the environment.
Google Home Mini is a fantastic little device for an entry point into Google Home but the sound quality is not on par with the other devices offered by Google. It can be a great companion ready to answer your questions during the day or to accompany you with background music but it is not a device you would use to regularly listen to music.
Google Nest mini, on the other hand, has significantly better sound quality. Apparently the device is almost the same but, as far as the sound is concerned, Google has made a qualitative leap. There are better bass and 360Ā° sound. You will feel like you have stepped into your music for a truly fantastic experience.
If you think that it limits itself to turning on the lights on command, you are wrong. This is just one of the many functions that Google offers, able to simplify your life and keep you company.
Here are the most useful functions in our opinion, and if you want to know more, find out on Google
