Google's 'Home' smart speaker comes to the UK this year

Google has revealed its Amazon Echo-rivalling smart speaker, Google Home, will come to the UK later this year. The technology giant launched the voice-activated device in the US last October but is yet to extend its release outside of the country. However, the company has now confirmed Home will go on sale in the UK during the'second quarter' of this year, meaning it will be released before the end of June. Google Home (pictured) will go on sale in the UK by the end of June of this year. 'We're in the Home stretch; Google Home is coming to the UK soon, stay tuned for more,' the tech firm said in a tweet.
