Description

The Google Nest Audio allows you to listen to music wirelessly and control your smart home. The speaker works via the power grid and you connect it to your smartphone or tablet via WiFi or Bluetooth. Thanks to the improved sound quality, the speaker is more suitable for playing music in larger rooms than its predecessor. Connect it to other Google speakers, like the Nest Mini or Nest Hub, to listen to your favorite music in several rooms at the same time. Thanks to the integrated Google Assistant, you can control the speaker with your voice. You can pause the music or adjust the volume, for example, but you can also control your smart lights or other pairable devices. You can also ask the Google Assistant about the weather or the appointments in your calendar.

Google Nest Audio: a leap in sound quality

  • Better sound than other Nest speakers
  • Simple stereo pairing
  • Faster voice assistant response times
  • In large living spaces you need multiple speakers

Where other Google Nest speakers are mainly a speech assistant, the Google Nest Audio is more of a nice speaker that is also a speech assistant. This successor to the Google Home is a step forward in several areas.

What immediately strikes me about the Google Nest Audio is the size of the speaker. It is higher and wider than the Google Home and consists of a speaker over the entire length. At the bottom is a base of plastic, which is not visible when you put the speaker down. Due to this appearance and its neutral color, this speaker fits nicely in a modern interior. You operate it with your voice, telephone or the touch controls on the top. The only visible button is the slide on the back, with which you switch off the voice control.

As soon as I play music, I notice that the sound quality of this speaker is considerably better than with other Google Nest speakers. This makes it a lot better suited for listening to music. I find the sound fairly balanced, with a bass that is sometimes less powerful. In my small living room that is sufficient, but in a larger house you may need several Nest Audio speakers.

I think it's an advantage that you can easily connect Nest Audio to other Nest Audio copies or other Google speakers, such as the Nest Mini or the Nest Hub. By turning on stereo pairing in the app, I let my 2 Nest Audios work together. In the app I indicate which speaker is on the left and which is on the right. This is how I create a speaker group with stereo sound. This way my music gets just that little bit more power.

With the Nest Audio, Google is clearly focusing on a better listening experience, but the voice assistant has also been improved somewhat. I especially notice this with standard commands, such as adjusting the volume or turning on my smart lamps. The speaker responds just a little faster, which is quite nice. I also notice that the speaker adjusts its volume based on ambient sounds, which is nice when you're having a conversation.

I recently installed this smart speaker and it sounds great. You can also easily configure these as a stereo pair.

Great speaker with great sound

  • Beautiful design
  • Clear sound
  • Assistant really responds better than a nest mini
  • Bass not too deep

I had a nest mini first, then a jbl link music but the nest audio outperforms both! Especially when it comes to the Google Assistant. This one responds better and hears what you say better than the nest mini and jbl link music.

Sound is fine, but for a little more 'body' this sounds better in a stereo pair. I read here and there a comparison with the ikea symphonisk (same price) but that won't make it to the nest audio. Then the symphony has a step better sound, but no Google Assistant.

All in all, a nice design speaker with excellent sound and top microphones for the Google Assistant.
