As our homes become more filled with Wi-Fi demanding devices, the near necessity of a mesh network is slowly becoming unavoidable. For now though, mesh Wi-Fi systems are premium products that demand a premium price, and Nest Wifi is no different. If the Google Assistant is your home voice AI of choice, you have two solid choices to review: 2017’s Google Wifi and the new Nest Wifi. Yes, despite the Nest Wifi being poised as the clear successor and replacement to the Google Wifi, both products are still available for purchase for the time being. That fact is further complicated by Google Wifi having a nearly identical feature set — minus the smart speaker capabilities — and a reduced price tag. In fact, you can currently purchase a Google Wifi three-pack  for less than a Nest Wifi two-pack. The older system does require a slightly more difficult setup and management process, if only that you may need the separate Google Wifi app for certain tasks. Unless you have a specific desire to put a Google Assistant smart speaker in the exact same place that you would put a mesh Wi-Fi point, it’s hard to justify the Nest Wifi’s current pricing. On the flip side though, Marie Kondo would probably be proud of Google’s effort to fold two disparate everyday devices into one form. That said, on the whole, I thoroughly enjoyed having the Nest Wifi system during my review period and I can strongly recommend it to any networking novices for its ease of setup and wildly impressive audio quality.   Edit door @Suzy (20/01 om 12:10) ...
