Noticeable audio upgrade over Google Home, Sleek design is sustainable, too, Google Assistant is fast and attentive, Aggressive pricing makes multi-room music affordable

Much improved audio quality compared to predecessor, Google Assistant can do a lot of stuff, Attractive price, Can pair two in stereo for a better music experience
Compact size limits the punch of bass and volume output, Playing specific music through voice commands can be hit or miss, Multiroom voice controls are unreliable
