Google makes several smart speakers and many well-known audio companies also put the Google Assistant in their smart speakers.
- We've rounded up the best smart speakers with the Google Assistant onboard to help you find the one that's right for you.
The original Google Home is our top pick because it is a top-notch Assistant-powered speaker that looks good, sounds great, and has a reasonable price tag.
Google Assistant is one of the best digital assistants along with Alexa. If you own an Android phone and you use other Google products and services, there's plenty of reason to buy into the Google ecosystem and get a smart speaker that's powered by the Google Assistant. The Assistant boasts excellent voice recognition, access to a huge range of third-party services, the power of Google's search engine, and more.
Of course, ever since the launch of the original Google Home, plenty of smart speakers with the Google Assistant have been released by traditional audio companies, too. All of these speakers are great for different situations. You might, for example, want a speaker with slightly better audio quality. Or, you might want something a little cheaper or more portable. Thankfully, there are plenty of options, and we think there is a Google speaker for everyone.
There are a number of things to think about before buying a Google Assistant-powered speaker. Perhaps the first and most important thing, however, is your budget. As long as you're willing to spend $50 or more, there will be a speaker for you, but if you're willing to spend more than $100, you'll likely find a great sounding speaker. You'll also want to think about whether you want a stationary speaker or something that's portable.
Here are the best Google Home and Google Assistant smart speakers:
- Best Google Home speaker overall: Google Home
- Best Google Home speaker on a budget: Google Home Mini
- Best Google Home speaker for audiophiles: Google Home Max
- Best Google Home speaker with a screen: Google Home Hub
- Best portable Google Assistant speaker: JBL Link 20
