Supports devices with Google Cast. Smart home control. The voice assistant works only in English.
A multifunctional smart speaker from Google for controlling a smart home system and listening to music. Unlike its competitor, the Alexa speaker produced by Amazon, this model has a more elegant design, and the ability for deep integration with Google services makes it an attractive choice for users looking to embrace the conveniences of voice control today. Unfortunately, as of the beginning of 2019, the voice assistant understands only conversational English. The Google Home smart speaker is equipped with a built-in Bluetooth adapter, a dual-band Wi-Fi module, two microphones, and a two-way speaker system consisting of two dynamic drivers and two passive radiators that enhance the depth of bass sounds. It can answer simple questions, play music, control smart home devices, add events to the calendar, and play video/audio through Chromecast. It is positioned by the manufacturer as an affordable device for advanced users and enthusiasts of home IoT technologies. Thanks to data collected by Google's web services, speech recognition is quite accurate and is not hindered by accents. Music streaming from Google Play Music and Spotify is available, and Multiroom technology is supported. It is controlled and configured from an Android smartphone.
