Google’s Home Mini and Nest Mini are a bang for your buck if you’re looking for affordable smart speakers. Coming in at $49 each, they’re quite the value.
While the first-gen Home Mini was outperformed by Amazon’s Echo Dot, the second-gen Nest Mini more than makes up for the flaws of its predecessor. It sounds a lot better, has a few new features and of course, comes in with the latest advancements to the Google Assistant.
One of Google Assistant’s many features is the ability to change its voice. Users can choose from a few select voice profiles to have a bit more control over how their smart speaker sounds. This opens the door for extremely personalised assistant settings. However, your options might be limited according to your language and region settings.
In this article, we’re going to take a look at how to change the voice of your Home Mini/Nest Mini smart speaker.
