Typical smart speakers normally provide adequate sound for listening to music, but it’s so much better with the Google Home Max. With support for multiple audio formats and high-performance streaming, it is capable of filling a room (or even a party) with tunes – the sound is impressively clear, and the bass is insane. A wide variety of music services are supported, including YouTube, Spotify, and Pandora. Google also added a Smart Sound technology that automatically optimizes audio based on the room the speaker’s in, allowing it to pick up and respond to voice commands even when it’s playing.

You can play your favorite tunes easily with the speaker – it has Bluetooth 4.2 for wireless streaming, a USB Type C port for Ethernet cable connection, and an auxiliary port if you want to hook it up with other audio devices such as a record player. There’s no way to make it a wireless soundbar for your TV at the moment, but you have the option to connect the audio inputs of the TV and the speaker with an adapter cable.

Similar to the Mini, the Max has a Voice Match feature that allows for personalized responses to directives. When you ask it how traffic looks on your way to work, it will recognize your voice and will provide you with your commute details. You can also use it to make calls and grocery lists or ask it what the weather situation is. Google continuously provides features through firmware updates to add to the speaker’s uses and functions.

The Google Home Max truly is a great speaker with convenient smart functionalities. If you’re looking for a smart speaker that can rock out your rap, hip-hop, EDM as well as movies, it might just be what you need. Order the chalk or charcoal version today on Walmart at a discounted price of $299.
