Amazon isn't going anyway anytime soon. The data they have on spending patterns and the ability to turn that into actual money is ridiculous.

I got Google Home because I suspect they'll surpass Amazon's echo soon enough

I don't have Google Home but all the messages I get from Amazon pushing me to buy things now that I have an Echo are annoying as hell. Especially considering the fact that the Echo is a glorified music player in my household and can rarely answer anything beyond really basic questions.

Get home. It's better for asking random questions and the speaker is a tad better

Google home has better answers to questions and better speaker than echo dot. Will probably get more functionalities to compete with echo soon!

Echo dot is like $50. Amazon has offers most of the time for $40. I bought it also coz I find it easier to say "Alexa" than "Ok Google". I just can't pronounce Google right after saying ok. 😔

@mck1 i get nothing like that, also OP get Echo if you have Hue/WeMo/other compatible smart devices

I have the same thought op. Really wanted to digitize my home last year but decided to wait until the technology is more mature.

I'm amused by my google home. But it's annoying that atm you can only ask it to play YouTube videos to the chromecast.

Go google the echo sucks ass
