“Game changer, HA Voice Preview has enabled me to ditch Alexa. So many ways you can set this up either totally local via LLM or Google Generative AI. Easy to set up its foud as Intergration immediately. Top Tip connect external speakers via the aux port to have a great sounding voice assistant”
“been playing with this for a week , at first I got 2 for the living room and my bed room now it's upto 5 , kitchen , 2 bedrooms , living room and spare which I may mod .
Work well but it trigger on a lot of word after O.K .”
“Great device, works as announced. The built-in speaker is a bare minimum speak, but can be easily sorted with the audio-out jack. Good quality device.”
“This little thing is amazing! Yeah not perfect but it has so much potential and it can be customised in both hardware and software. I'm so excited to see what the community will bring us.
So far I've 3D printed another enclosure and paired the devices with a more powerful speaker, now sounds as good as my old defunct homepod mini.”
“While it was easy to setup for the first time, what it can do, without extra dabbling inside HA, was a bit disappointing. I appreciate that HA is improving at a pace and as this is a preview edition, it will improve also. If you're an HA nerd then this might be for you, otherwise I'd hold fire.
Despatch by The Pi Hut was very quick with excellent communication of updates.”
“It was really quick and easy to set up, and once I realised I needed to increase the memory in my virtual machine, it started working! It is still very much a beta product—I don't think you would be able to get away with too much if you don't know what you're doing, but still—it works well!”
