Google Home Review: Voice Calling Now In UK

Is Google Home worth buying Yes… so long as you're not expecting it to change your world

Good little wifi system.

This compact system fits almost anywhere and has given me plenty of signal from inside wooden cabinets. I do wish the units had a power switch.

Google Home review

The Google Home is the best all-round smart speaker you can get, offering a great balance of, price, design, sound quality and features. It answers all our questions, keeps us entertained and up to date, and even turns on and off our lights. It is quite literally one of the best and most exciting talking points our home has seen.

This product is easy to set up. The Google Assistant is very useful for controlling smart devices in the home. Google Home is unobstructive and Glenys into any room. The sound is not on a par with a Sonos One, however from an ex Sonos user, the assistant capabilities far exceed Sonos.

Great sound quality and works flawlessly.

Great sound, clear and can get really loud with the same sound quality. Since the purchase of the speaker, it has updated several times to improve performance. The assistent can understand almost everything, although being the product that it is, I'd expect a little more commands but it will get...

The Google Home is a great-looking speaker with a voice assistant that's catching up to Amazon's Alexa, although it hasn't quite gotten there yet. The Google Home ($129) connected wireless speaker has grown up a lot in the six months since it appeared on the scene. With support for multiple users, many more smart home brands, and third-party skills, it's finally a legitimate competitor to the Amazon Echo ecosystem. In some ways, Google Home is even better than Alexa—at handling multiple users, for instance. It hasn't quite caught up yet overall, but it's definitely getting there. Design and Setup The Google Home ($99.00 at Target) is an attractive gourd-shaped speaker with a removable woven gray base—additional fabric ($20) and metal ($20) options are available. It's 3.79 inches in diameter and 5.62 inches tall, and weighs about a pound. It looks like an ornamental candle, and thanks to the fabric base and various color options, it'll fit much more easily into various home decor than Amazon's somewhat utilitarian-looking black or white Echo speakers (even the smaller Echo Dot and Amazon Tap aren't particularly attractive). ...

The Google Home is fun, functional, and should only get better with time.

Google Home review: still much to learn

For all intents and purposes, Google Home is pretty much a year old and needs to do more. In the U.S., the smart voice box has already been on the market long enough to give app developers time to implement the actions, but so far, the added value is limited to few areas.
