The home mini features a micro USB port on it’s rear for power. A microphone switch that enables you to turn off active listening, making this a speaker that you’ll have to tap to interact with. At the bottom a padding of circular rubber is applied so as to help you to keep it anywhere possible. It comes in three colors Coral peach, chalk grey, charcoal black.

You can use it to take control of any device. Google home mini can place a call to your friends. Pitch your favorite music from YouTube, Spotify, Pandora and from many other third party sources. Chrome cast users will also be able to connect to it hassle free. The speaker quality is nothing to boast about. It’s loud enough, can get the job done , but for bass lovers it’s a bummer.
