The Google Home Speaker sounds good and looks great — but it’s finicky
The Verge
The new Google Home Speaker offers impressive sound and design, but its minimalist interface makes it somewhat difficult to use.Summary
The new Google Home Speaker provides rich, loud audio in a compact, aesthetically pleasing design, outperforming similar devices like the Amazon Echo Dot Max. While its microphones are highly responsive to voice commands, the device suffers from a lack of intuitive physical controls, such as poorly defined touch targets and a hidden light indicator. Priced at $99, it functions as a gateway to Google's Gemini AI, though its overall value remains dependent on the assistant's performance in upcoming comprehensive testing.
