The verdict

The Google Nest Audio is a great smart speaker with plenty of tricks up its sleeve. Google dropped the old air freshener aesthetic for a cleaner, softer design that houses impressive hardware and is powered by even more impressive software. If you’re considering the new Amazon Echo but aren’t beholden to Alexa, the Nest Audio is an attractive alternative that supports multi room and stereo playback.
