Google Home Mini Review:

My Google Assistant is many things, but it's mostly a meteorologist. I work 40 miles from my apartment, and the Bay Area's many microclimates mean I'll experience several weathers between my door and my desk. The questions come in the same order every morning: Hey Google, what's the weather in San Jose? Google's latest smart speaker emphasizes smart over speaker: it's a small pebble of a thing, about the size of a crosswise slice of a softball. Unlike, say, the Home Max, which Google built to sound great, the Mini's just supposed to be so small, so cheap, and so simply designed that you'll put it somewhere and never notice it again.
