Google has just announced the Home Mini. It is a smart home speaker that’s powered by the Google Assistant. This is the second line of smart speakers from Google after the original Google Home. The Home Mini is not to be confused with the TicHome Mini by Mobvoi.

In terms of size, the Google Home Mini is 3.86 inches in diameter and 1.65 inches in height. Think of it as this way; Amazon Echo is to Google Home as Echo Dot is to the Home Mini. The speaker comes in 3 colours: Chalk, Charcoal and Coral and is covered in fabric. In terms of control, tap the middle to play/pause music, long press the middle to active Google Assistant and the left and right for volume.

The Google Home Mini will be available for USD $49 (RM 207) and will launch in the US, UK and Australia on October 19. For more information head over to Google
