6. JBL Link 20

A less expensive portable Google Home speaker

If you’re looking for a portable, yet affordable smart speaker, the JBL Link 20 is it. Its battery lasts for up to 10 hours, so it should be able to power your party all through the day. And this mesh-covered speaker can also withstand being submerged in water for up to 30 minutes. So, if you leave it out in a rainstorm overnight, it should still work fine.

In our review, we found the JBL Link 20 sounds great, with well-balanced treble, bass and midtones. It’s also loud enough, up to 90 decibels, to fill an outdoor patio or other open space. Though the Link 20 is one of the best Google Home speaker, it doesn’t support hands-free calls, so you’ll want to stick to a Google brand speaker if that feature is important to you.

The $99 Google Nest Hub (2nd Gen) is a speaker for music, screen for your Google Assistant needs and a communication center. And it tracks your sleep, too. When positioned on your nightstand, the upgraded Google Nest Hub uses the Soli radar sensing chip to see how well (or not) you’re sleeping at night. It’s a little creepy, but the contactless tracking abilities will let you forget it’s there.

Soli’s superpowers also enable air gestures, letting you pause and play YouTube videos or snooze an alarm. These gestures don’t work all the time, but are useful when they do. As for sound, Google did boost the bass by 50% this time around, which is an improvement over the total absence of bass in the first-generation model.

The Lenovo Smart Clock is our favorite Google Assistant-powered alarm clock and one of the best Google Home speakers you can buy. With an adorable, four-inch display, it’s the perfect smart home device to keep on your bedside table. You can choose from a number of different clock faces in various colors and styles, depending on your room’s aesthetic. The grey fabric casing provides a neutral and modern look, too.

At night, the Lenovo Smart Clock’s display dims and plays relaxing ambient noises, if you wish. There’s even decent audio — certainly better than you might expect from an alarm clock. Its bassline is even strong enough to shake your mattress, which could come in handy if you have a hard time getting out of your bed in the morning.

The Lenovo Smart Display was the first Google Assistant-powered smart display worth buying. It’s a well-rounded device that’s available in several sizes, depending on what fits your space best. Lenovo’s smart display still has a sharper screen and more stylish design than most of its competitors, plus it benefits from Google’s user-friendly interface.

One of our favorite things about the Lenovo Smart Display is Ambient Mode, which shows the time and weather in the lower left corner when the display isn’t in use. It can also change the background image from a preset album you’ve assigned in Google Photos. If you’re committed to Google’s ecosystem of products— as many Android smartphone users are — it’s one less step to access your photos.

The original Lenovo Smart Display is available in 8-and 10-inch sizes, and the company recently released the smaller Lenovo Smart Display 7.

The Bose Portable Home Speaker is one of the best Google Home speakers because it boasts Bose-caliber sound, plus Google Assistant integration and impressive portability. In our review, we found the Bose Portable Home Speaker is a quality option if you’re a fan of the Bose brand and wish your voice assistant followed you around.

Although the Sonos Move is the favored portable smart speaker, Bose’s version provides fuller listening with its 360-degree grille setup. Plus its cute, fabric-swathed handle and lightweight design make it easier to schlep around your house than the towering Move. Both the matte black and white-silver finishes lend the pail-shaped Bose Portable Home Speaker a modern look, while its long battery life lets you carry it around with you all day long.

How to choose the best Google Home speaker for you

The key decision you’ll have to make while shopping for one of the best Google Home speakers is whether you’re looking for a standard, wired speaker, a portable speaker or a speaker with a display. If this is your first smart home purchase, you’ll want to opt for the Nest Mini, Google Nest Audio or Sonos One. Ranging from $50-$200, all are simple to set up and lay a foundation for getting your other gadgets connected.

If you have a large family or spend a lot of time in the kitchen or other shared space, a smart speaker with a display is a better choice. You can check in on your security cameras and video doorbells, get recipe advice and make calls. Video calls can only be made with the Nest Hub Max or Lenovo Smart Display, though.

And if you’re always on the move and want to carry your soundtrack around with you, consider opting for one of the portable Google Home speaker options, like the Sonos Move or JBL Link 20.

How we test the best Google Home speakers

When testing any of the best Google Home speakers, the first thing we look at is audio quality. After all, if a speaker doesn’t sound good, then what use is it? We consider the price and purpose of the smart speaker here, too. If it’s a small, budget device, we wouldn’t expect it to sound as good as something that costs five times as much. That said, if a speaker costs a couple hundred dollars, it better sound awesome.

Because it’s a smart speaker, we also take into account what you can do with the voice assistant embedded inside. While smart speakers made by Google have all of the abilities of Google Assistant, some third-party manufacturers exclude certain features, such as the ability to make voice calls. So, if a speaker made by Google sounds the same as one made by another company, but that latter speaker doesn’t have all of Google Assistant, then Google’s device will get a higher rating
