Google’s smart speaker lineup has evolved tremendously over the past several years, particularly its AI assistant which has steadily improved over time and integrates well with other Google products; however, its response times still lag behind that of Amazon Alexa.
Google’s fabric-wrapped Home Mini is an amazing value at such a reasonable price. However, many were initially concerned that its fabric material might trap dust or make an ideal scratching post for cats; Google has since addressed these concerns by adding more microphones and amplifying bass response from its Mini speaker.
