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

He’s probably using the latest kitchen gadget
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

Abstract: 음악만 들려주던 스피커가 진화하고 있다. 이제는 손으로 일일이 조작할 필요 없이 말로 명령하면 알아서 음악을 재생시켜 줄 만큼 똑똑해졌다. 음악만이 아니다. 날씨, 교통정보, 뉴스 등 궁금한 정보를 물어보는 족족 시원스럽게 대답해주고 간단한 대화까지 주고받을 수 있다. 개인 비서처럼 알람과 일정관리도 말만 하면 별도의 설정을 하지 않아도 스스로 기억하고 확인해준다.수동적인 음향기기에서 상호작용하는 개인비서로 변신한 스피커, 사물인터넷과 음성인식 인공지능...
