Amid many manufacturers putting their newest flagship
product in the hands of reviewers to get the best feedback before its launch
time, it seems to make the Google services giant reportedly also doing the
same.
Ahead of the launch of their new Google Home Mini AI
speakers on October 19, Google has received a number of unfavorable reports
that occurred on its flagship product from its loyal reviewers around the
world. Since the complaints are very diverse, Google seems to first sort
through them carefully.
According to a report by one of its reviewers, the Google
Home Mini it uses almost always records sounds at home. For some, this may not
be a big deal, but it's different if all the recordings are actually sent to
Google servers.
Although so far the credibility of Google in the eyes of its
users is no doubt, but with such work will still cause anxiety for some people
because related to privacy issues. Thanks to the smart system available on
Google Home Mini, the system will automatically send what it hears to the
server to get the appropriate feedback. Incidentally the way the work is said
there is a resemblance to what is accommodated AI speaker system made by
Amazon.
Google Home Mini will usually ignore any sounds heard until
there is a direct command from the owner like "Hey Google" or
"OK Google". However, due to problems in the device, the system
will listen continuously without adequate response. In addition, Google's AI
speakers also have a bad touch sensor on the top.
Google has acknowledged this problem and has issued a
software update to resolve the issue. Normally the light above the speaker will
light while listening. Fixed software prevents touch-speaker activation, which
is a feature intended to offer activation options. Google Home Mini can be able
to respond when listening to direct greetings from the owner.
Google seems to have a very good idea of the issues that
impact a small number of Google Home Mini devices that can cause touch
mechanisms to behave incorrectly. Related to that, Google itself reportedly has
launched a software update on 7 October ago to reduce the problem. As for
anyone who still gets complaints on Google Home Mini, please contact the Google
Support hotline 1-855-971-9121 to get Google Home Mini replacement.
