Minimalist yet quirky design; Loud speakers; Physical mic-off and camera shutter toggles; Suggested followup commands make it easier to know what to say next; YouTube experience is actually not bad, thanks to Google's search capabilities; Good video calls with Google Duo.

Still no lexicon of acceptable commands and their functions; No way to see your YouTube subscription feed; Currently, Google Duo is the only program that supports portrait orientation; Sending messages isn't supported yet; Continued Conversation feature not yet supported on this device.
