Plus a few remarkably cool things too. It's an impressively good speaker
For such a tiny package

Tasteful design
Access to Google's massive knowledge graph

The editors didn't like
Only connects to three major smart home brands
Doesn't sound as good as an Echo
Most of my favorite voice commands from the Google app don't work—no reminders
Messages
Or creating calendar events
Do you want to know exactly what voice commands are supported for each service and function? Nobody knows! Comprehensive documentation f
Large power brick
Conversational search is still limited
Not portable/has to be plugged in at all times
Only a few supported non-Google services like Spotify or Pandora at launch
Only a few supported smart home devices at launch
Cloud service is incomplete

Hardware Reviews
Plays catch-up to Amazon in third-party device support
Still has some learning to do
Hefty cord somewhat limits where it can be placed
Videos are truncated in full-screen mode
You can't use voice commands to stream music from your own local server
You can use voice commands with only a handful of the 80+ streaming services Sonos suppor
No Z-Wave support
Not the best smart speaker for music
The power plug can be a little tricky to hide
Lack of visual search can be frustrating
Plays catch-up t
Not much of the Googleinfused personalization or intelligence seems to be here yet. Google doesn't have many thirdparty partners yet
So you're stuck in Google Land
The Home's integrations with other Google services still don't allow a lot of give and take -- you can't create reminders or make a to-do list
Limited add-ons at this point
Lacks balanced sound
Especially on vocals
Feature discovery can be less than intuitive
Absence of certain features (like Play Music library support) is confusing
Additional investment needed to take advantage of smarthome control
Speaker quality is only so-so for music
Limited third-party app support compared to Amazon
A handful of expected features aren't available at launch
Sonido 360º con buen volumen, Reconocimiento de voz ágil, Compatible con Google Home, IP X3 (splashproof), Pareado Bluetooth con NFC, Reloj
Control por gestos necesita mejorar, Sonido podría ser algo mejor
El altavoz Sony LF-S50G es una alternativa muy buena al tradicional Google Home. Tiene mejor calidad de sonido y es algo más versátil. La conexión Bluetooth funciona bastante bien y abre el campo a más dispositivos que no tengan nada que ver con nuestra c...

Buen control de música, Reconocimiento de voz seguro, Control de electrodomésticos inteligentes de diferentes fabricantes
No conecta con Philips Hue, Muy pocas acciones (apps)
En realidad, Google Home ya tiene casi un año de antigüedad y debería ser capaz de ofrecer más. En Estados Unidos, lleva lo suficiente en el mercado para que les haya dado tiempo a los desarrolladores a implemedar las acciones. En el caso de Alemania, el...

Discrétion du produit, finitions agréables, Base de connaissances suffisante pour commencer sur un bon pied, Du contenu de qualité fourni par des partenaires reconnus, Qualité du son très correcte, Prix abordable
Pas de support de l'écosystème Apple (à part iOS), Une version française moins complète que l'américaine, Une voix pas très agréable, Petit, mais pas très mobile
Ensuite ? Eh bien c'est à vous de jouer! Dites « OK Google » puis posez n'importe quelle question qui vous passe par la tête, et l'enceinte va tenter de vous répondre du mieux possible. Les possibilités sont assez riches: traduction: « comment dit-on “c...
Excellente compréhension de la voix, Pratique pour contrôler ses objets connectés, Audio de bonne qualité, Prix intéressant
Peu de services compatibles, Pas encore de rappels, Pas d'ajout d'événements à l'agenda
Si Google Home se présente avant tout comme un assistant permettant de contrôler vos objets connectés, il n'est pas nécessaire d'en être équipé pour profiter de l'enceinte de Google. Son contrôle à la voix est pratique pour lancer la radio ou chercher un...

Petite et esthétique, Son de bonne qualité, Réponse plutôt rapide, Peut reconnaître jusqu'à 6 voix
Ne comprend pas certaines requêtes en anglais, Besoin de reformuler certaines requêtes, Réponses incomplètes ou trop courtes, La répétition "Ok Google"
On est encore très loin du film Her avec la Google Home (et ce n'est pas plus mal! ) mais personnellement, je n'ai pas été conquise par l'objet. Je reste cependant persuadée que d'ici 1 an ou 2, les connaissances qu'elle aura emmagasinées finiront par don...
