One thing's for sure: You might never appreciate just how much music is on YouTube without buying a Google Home. While some of the biggest music streaming services in the world boast libraries of 25, 30 and even 40 million songs, they're far from complete
Clearly the lack of integration into Google's own services is a huge issue. The fact that it can't shoot an email to someone in your contacts or help you schedule events through Google Calendar are massive oversights that vastly reduce how useful the Home

Google Home is already a better device than was the Amazon Echo when it launched, and it has a huge amount of potential for future development. Sure it has room for improvement, but even today we love Google Home - it answers all our questions, keeps us e...
If you haven't already splashed out on an Echo, Google Home is an essential purchase. Aside from a handful of teething problems it's a remarkable little home helper, and one I can't recommend highly enough. Amazon's Echo just isn't as all-encompassing as...
