Google announced a successor to the Google Home Mini at its Made By Google event in October. However, rather than arriving as the Google Home Mini 2, it launched as the Nest Mini. It even looks the same as its predecessor.
The smart speaker has now arrived in India more than a month later with a price tag of INR 4,499 (~$63). It is already available for purchase on Flipkart in Chalk and Charcoal. Sorry, no Coral and Sky.
The Google Store India website says it is also available on Reliance Digital and Croma but we couldn’t find it on both online stores.
The Nest Mini has 40% stronger bass than its predecessor, better voice recognition, and capacitive buttons that light up when the speaker senses you are close. There is also a hole at the back of the speaker in case you want to mount it on a wall rather than have it sit on a surface.
Just like the Home Mini, the Nest Mini can also control your compatible smart home appliances and lights. You can stream songs and podcasts from the internet and also listen to weather reports and the news.
