Google Home Speaker gets first discount since June launch

In addition to the Pixel deals that started last week, Google is discounting the Home Speaker for the first time.

The Google Home Speaker finally launched on June 27. For the past four months, the price has remained at $99.99.

The Google Store is running a $20 discount that brings the Gemini device down to $79.99. This sale kicked off today and ends on December 2, which is two days after Cyber Monday. This deal is also available at Best Buy and other retailers.

The Google Home Speaker is available in Berry, Hazel, Jade, and Porcelain. Covered in fabric, it offers 360-degree audio (officially: “Omni-directional sound with 58 mm full-range driver”) and can be paired with the Google TV Streamer. There are three far-field microphones with a privacy mute switch at the base. You get a ring of status lights, while the top surface has three capacitive touch controls for volume and play/pause.

Matter support allows it to work as a smart home hub. The 59.1-inch USB-C cable is attached to the Google Home Speaker, with the 30W charger included in the box. At 3.4 inches high, it’s approximately the height of two stacked Nest Minis.

“Gemini for Home” provides access to the voice commands you’re familiar with, but real-time Gemini Live sessions require a Google Home Premium Standard subscription at $10/month or $100/year. Each speaker comes with a 30-day trial.
