The Google Home Mini has featured in many of our top deals over the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales season, but this Christmas deal is one of the best we’ve seen yet. Google Home Mini, now superceded with the Nest Home Mini, remains a highly recommended device. It’s come down from its £49.99 retail price to just £19 as retailers look to shift stocks, while the Fitbit Ace 2 tracker also bundled here will usually retail at £69.99. We gave the new Google Nest Mini a full five stars in our review, but the reality is it’s not really all that different from this older version, adding a wall mount, an audio jack, and slightly enhanced speakers. The Google Home Mini remains one of our favourite smart speakers of all time, especially with its recent price reduction, making it the cheapest entry point for adding Google Assistant to your home. The other half of this bundle is just as attractive, with the Ace 2 a fitness tracker hailing from the company that has become synonymous with such tech, and this model is designed just for kids aged 6 and above. It’s waterproof, making it safe for use in the bath, but also more easy to clean when it gets near those sticky fingers. For its younger audience Fitbit has made some tweaks, stripping out the calorie counting and adding in different modes for kids and parents. Through the Kid View, kids can see only their stats data, badges and clock face options, plus are able to connect with parent-approved friends. Several colour combinations are available:
Fitbit Ace 2 (blue & yellow) + Google Home Mini (charcoal) Fitbit Ace 2 (blue & yellow) + Google Home Mini (chalk) Fitbit Ace 2 (blue & yellow) + Google Home Mini (coral) Fitbit Ace 2 (watermelon & teal) + Google Home Mini (charcoal) Fitbit Ace 2 (watermelon & teal) + Google Home Mini (chalk) Fitbit Ace 2 (watermelon & teal) + Google Home Mini (coral)
