Google launches Nest Audio smart speaker with increased volume and thick bass
Today, Google officially unveiled the smart speaker Nest Audio, which finally replaced the original Google Home released back in 2016. Like the Nest Mini, the new speaker is completely lined with fabric, and hidden underneath are four bright LEDs that turn on when interacting with the device.
In addition to an updated design and significantly improved, according to assurances of Google, sound, Nest Audio provides functionality similar to other speakers with Google Assistant support. It plays music, controls smart home devices, reports the weather, and so on. Nest Audio is capable of connecting with other speakers to create a stereo pair or other multi-room audio configurations. Google claims the new smart speaker is 75 percent louder than Google Home and delivers a 50 percent deeper bass. The speaker cabinet is made from 70 percent recycled plastic.
The main competitor for Nest Audio will be the Amazon Echo, which sells for the same price. The cost of the new Google smart speaker is $ 99. Nest Audio, available in five colors, will hit the global market on October 15th.
