hey Google play top hop music
welcome to the home automation X Channel today i'm here with cindy and sheila how
are you guys today amazing couldn't be better today we'll
be comparing the Google mini and the echo dot now just a reminder before we
get into our comparison that we would love to have you subscribe to our videos
and be alerted when we have new content so make sure that you click on our bell
icon to be updated and alert oh that's right Cindy
so currently they usually go for about $49 but sometimes the dot does go for
slightly cheaper at $34 but make sure you check the links below as we provide
updates on their prices well now as you can see they are very similar in size
and they're both able to do if this then that features and if you don't know what
I'm referring to there we do have some videos that cover IFTTT now I do also
want to note that they have both capabilities of using the Bluetooth with
the speakers a difference in terms of their volume is that you tap on this one
on the side and that will actually adjust your volume for this one you're
gonna turn it they also both make phone calls the echo dot has Alexa skills
which gives them more abilities they both have the microphone feature to mute
which is just right here on this one and just right here on this one however the
echo dot also has a 3.5 auxiliary cord to connect to other greater sound
systems which this one does not have the Google home Oni works with chromecast
which can connect to your TV and control of that and as well expand your audio
and the equity connects to Amazon fire stake which also connects to your TV if
you're into audiobooks the echo dot reads them back to you but the Google
mini doesn't do that now let's test the i/o on both of them we'll start with the
echo dot hey Alexa play top hop music playing the
top pop songs very fast to respond but it does sound a little tinny Alexa stop
hey Google Play top hop music alright try this radio mix from Google Play
Music based on the top pop playlist
there we go we just because hey because we were so into the music thank God we
were getting our hey down see alright there you go oh good now I'm gonna ask
some questions now because I want to know what is going on like how do they
respond to us if we were to interview these des gadgets which one would be
more personable let's see Alexa how do you get to Times
Square the fastest route to watch i.t Niagara Falls at Falls View casino
resort takes about 18 minutes via u.s. 62 and River Road and Alexa
where is Times Square Times Square is a destination for tourists on Manhattan
New York it is 132 miles 212 kilometers south of
Albany and in the southwest part of Manhattan New York Alexa what's the
temperature over there right now in Niagara Falls it's 41 degrees with
cloudy skies tonight's forecast has dreary weather with a low of 35 degrees
well there go those plans I'm not going to go anywhere all right well maybe
Google will have some news for me hey Google where is Times Square the address
for Times Square is Times Square Manhattan New York 100 3 6 USA Google
hey Google directions they're the best way to get to Times Square by cars via
i-90 East and we'll take about 8 hours and 12 minutes in light traffic ok so it
does appear that one of them is a little better with follow-up questions and one
of them is a little more personable isn't that right Google so if you're
going to use them as standalone devices the Google mini has far better sound but
if you plan to connect it to another greater sound system then with the dot
it doesn't matter now which one is better well if I want to use them
my house I would probably use the Google home mini and I would have them around
my house now the audio system is a lot better the sound is a lot more appear
now what are your common suggestions and concerns please feel free to pepper us
with those and we invite you cordially to subscribe to our channel by clicking
