Google's new smart speaker is more compact than before, but little else has changed
The Google Home Speaker is more compact than the now-discontinued Nest Audio, but lacks features found in competing smart speakers from Amazon and Apple. If you're in the Google Home ecosystem, it's worth a look, but doesn't do much else than the previous generation.
Pros
+Physical microphone mute button
+Attractive (if derivative) design
+Gemini is a powerful assistant
