Google may have canceled the Home Max, but this great deal lives on
Google launched the Nest Audio last fall, serving as a replacement to both the original Google Home and the oversized Home Max. It s one of the best speakers you can buy for under $100, but it s not perfect. Without a wired input, it s impossible to use the Nest Audio with a turntable or your entertainment system. If you ve been dying to add some speakers to your house but you re hesitant to switch to wireless, today s you re lucky day. You can upgrade your audio experience with a Google Home Max for just $150.

Bixby and Siri
Source: Android Central
If you own a Samsung device, you ll have access to another assistant in the form of Bixby. With it, you can control devices connected to Samsung s SmartThings ecosystem, and thanks to Samsung and Google s newly rejuvenated partnership, that functionality extends to Google Nest products as well.
Bixby is accessed through the power button on newer Samsung phones, although there are ways to completely disable Bixby if you so choose.
Of course, if you re ingrained in Apple s ecosystem, there s a good chance you mainly use Siri. Apple doesn t have a family of smart speakers outside the HomePod and HomePod Mini. It does, however, make some of the best streaming devices like the Apple TV 4K, which usually come with a remote that has one-touch access to Siri, making it easy to search for your favorite shows and movies.
