Google Home comes in 3 variants, the original Home speakers and Max and Mini versions. They are your daily Go-to devices for getting answers, playing songs, and getting stuff done around your smart home. And all work can be done without touching any controls or going anywhere. However, as standardized as the things may sound, they are not! Each home is a distinct ecosystem within itself. And users’ needs and way of working differs.
