Nest Audio retains the distinctive spotlight performance of other Google speakers.

It’s only been a few months since we first saw the new Google Nest Audio, a smart speaker, between the Nest Mini and Home Max in the Google hierarchy. It usually costs $ 100, which is what it sells for everywhere, including Walmart and the Google Store. But at the moment you can save $ 20 and the Google Nest Audio for $ 80 by Best Buy.
The new Nest Audio is about 7 inches long and as it is nowadays, it is wrapped in one of five colors (chalk, charcoal, sand, air and sage). There is a privacy button that mutes the microphone and can be connected to other devices via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. It sounds better than the Google Home that replaces it, equipped with a 19mm tweeter and a large 75mm centerwoofer. Overall, this is a noticeable improvement and is a good value of $ 80 (although there will inevitably be better deals later in the year, especially as we approach Black Friday 2021.

For now, this is a great chance to get the latest Google smart speaker at a 20% discount.
