    like the features, setup was difficult for some of my devices (August Door lock, czcams.com/users/postUgkxhB5YOMNj04GuoAosExygP4cH-dKeb4aB Bose speaker)... but all switches and outlets (5), thermostat, tankless water heater. Unfortunately all I can do is turn on/off Bose. It doesn't support volume or changing channels, but I believe that is due to the particular speaker I have.... Worth getting if you already have other devices to use it with... I don't sit around and ask Alexa questions much so that doesn't really matter to me....

      He calls her without any warning, tells her shes in a video, she does the right thing, and hangs up on her inconsiderate brother. Great example, of how irritating these devices can be, or rather how irritating the users of these devices can be, when installing them in a home if everybody is not on board with this new invasive technology. As I learned when I brought one home a few months back, annoying my family with this listening device.

    To end a call on Google Home Mini, you tap and hold one of the two sides. On the standard Google Home speaker it's just a tap on top of it.
    Furthermore, you don't have to wait for the LEDs and sound after you say "Hey Google". You can just talk to it like you would to a person, disregarding the delay. Google Home will understand what you're saying just fine.

  • @DaveBaggs
    @DaveBaggs Před 6 lety +15

    Everyone who has one of these I suggest you plug your device into a smart outlet. The reason is, you can set your smart outlet to only turn on during times you need your Google Home or Amazon Alexa. If you don't do this, your device will constantly use your bandwidth and at the end of your billing cycle, you might use up all of your data with whomever you have your internet through. This happened to me twice and when I researched this, this is a common problem. Mine only turns on for 15 minutes before I go to work and for a few hours after I get off. On weekends I keep it on a bit longer but also your Google Chromecast dongle should be plugged into a separate smart outlet. Just something to think about in another video.

    Using the Google home mini for alarms is super convenient however there are a few shortcomings that I hope Google can resolve in a future update.
    1. If there is a power outage it would be nice if there was a back up alarm run on a paired phone so you aren't running late for whatever you've got going on. This is one key feature that makes me not trust the Google Home Alarms as you never know when a power outage will hit.
    2. If you set alarms for specific dates e.g. 7:30 a.m. on the 13th of December and 7:30 a.m. on the 14th of December, when you go in the Google home app to see what alarms you have it just shows up as two alarms for 7:30 a.m. It should display which date these alarms are set for if they are a specific date.
    3. It would be nice if you could actually create alarms in the Google home app as well.
    I've sent my feedback to Google and if you agree I'd encourage you to send feedback as well, the more people that request it the more likely that Google will implement it! 😁

    The Google Home Mini actually has a pretty good speaker. It can get louder than some of the speakers at the same price. I got it on sale for $27 at best buy and it definitely is worth. The only MAJOR flaw is that it has to be plugged in to work.

      $27 whoa, that's cheap. Pity everything is so much more expensive in New Zealand. I bought an echo dot in Feb this year shortly after their release here, cost $89. By the way, echo also has to be plugged in to power to work, but I don't imagine it's stand-by current draw is very much as it's only a 5v usb charger/power adapter.

      I'm getting my grandparents a few of these. I bought myself and my mother each one as a cool little toy to play with. She brought up the point that these smart speakers can improve the quality of life for some people. Finding out about the weather is very helpful as well as finding the phone feature. And if paired with smart lights and door locks, that can be a lifesaver for people with disabilities or have less mobility. That can help to reduce with accidents that happen at night by being able to turn the lights on and off. And if they do have an accident but don't have their phone on them, they can call someone on their contact list to get help instead of waiting who knows how long you be found.
