Design
Google Home Mini has a compact design, looks funny like a shoe with a diameter of 98 mm. fabrication consists of plastic-coated yarn in the upper half, plastic in the lower half and the bottom in soft rubber.
Soft rubber layer on the bottom to increase grip when placing the speaker on the table because of its very light weight. Near the edge of this rubber bezel is a hidden power button, hold down to turn on / off the speaker.
You can also choose your favorite colors including red, gray and black.
The size of the Google Home Mini is ideal for a portable speaker, but unfortunately it doesn’t have a battery, it always needs to be plugged in via the microUSB port. The Google Home Mini is a central device that helps connect and control with smart home devices, so this is why Google doesn’t equip the battery with it. The charger is quite nice, white and also white wires but also so that easy to dirty.
Next to the microUSB charging port, there is also a switch to turn on / off the mic to avoid accidentally activating Google Assistant when not needed.
The Google Home Mini has a built-in signal light below the speaker fabric. They include 4 circular LED lights, showing the status of Google Home Mini like calling Google Assistant, volume level. We can increase or decrease by touching the left or right speakers, in addition can order Google Home Mini to adjust. However, to play music, we have to order to next or stop.
