What is Google Home Mini? And do share detailed review and is it worth the price?

Google Home Mini is a smart home speaker system. Google calls it Assistant. You talk to it and ask questions, and it fetches the information from the Internet, while using your Google account. Here is a good review.

It came in the bundle, and free to me. I didnt even open the pack yet. Hence, I am unable to review it at the moment.

EDIT: Just checked for you. It sells for USD 39.

Ok got it. I was talking about review of phone bro.

I bought Google Mini from Chicago for little over $40 including taxes. Its nice thing to fetch some information while you are lying in your bed, it even tell jokes and stories. One thing that bothers me is that you need to say "ok google" to get the google assistant's attention, but in latest Google I/O conference google has mentioned that they want to make google assistant a continuous conversation thing, like you are talking to a person, that would be implemented in a month or so. BTW you can do the same thing on your phone, say ok google and it will act the same way but of course a dedicated device is convenient.

You can follow my latest phone thread here:

So I bought a OnePlus 6

Thats right, I had been watching OnePlus brand from sides for a while, and said to myself, heck why not try the new OnePlus 6. Recently, I had been using a Google Pixel 2 XL (). But wanted to change to something different. Which bring me to this topic.
