Google Home Mini


To answer the need for cheaper smart speakers, Google launched the Google Home Mini along with the new Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 smartphones.

It works like the bigger Google Home but at a size ‘smaller than a donut’. But best of all is the US$ 49 price tag. That’s just around PHP 2,500.00 but sadly, it won’t be officially available here in the Philippines.

The Google Home Mini is powered by the Google Assistant. It needs to connect to a Wi-Fi networks to work and a chromecast enabled speaker for a better sound quality when playing music.

Nevertheless, it’s enough on itself for getting reminders, asking for news, setting alarms and other functions. If you prefer a louder audio, there’s also the Google Home Max.
