Google have just launched their biggest, baddest home speaker yet with a bunch of new features that will make it even better.<\/h4>\n

Google have just launched the Google Home Max, their new Home speaker that takes everything to the next level. The Home Max doesn’t just bring some gorgeous and powerful new speakers to the range but introduces advanced features like Smart Sound.<\/p>\n

Smart Sound is powered by Google’s artificial intelligence and allows the Home Max to adapt to it’s environment and tweak it’s sound based on it’s surroundings. It works automatically so no matter where it is or if you move it somewhere else the speaker will continue adapting itself for the base sound possible.<\/p>\n

Here’s what makes Google’s\u00a0new Max speakers awesome:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Built for premium sound:<\/b>\u00a0Google Home Max has two 4.5-inch high-excursion woofers that\u2019ll deliver deep, powerful bass. And Max is loud\u2026really loud. It\u2019s 20 times more powerful than Google Home, so it will fill any room in your home with amazing audio.<\/li>\n
  2. More music:\u00a0<\/b>Max allows you to use your voice to control popular services like Spotify Free and Premium, YouTube Music, Google Play Music or Pandora, and with Chromecast built in, you can cast from your phone from many more services. For all of your other music and devices, Max has support for both Bluetooth\u00ae and aux-in. Plug in your record player and dust off your vinyl.<\/li>\n
  3. Your very own DJ:\u00a0<\/b>With the Google Assistant built in, Max is always ready to start your favorite song, pause or turn it up, all with just your voice. Can\u2019t quite remember that name of that famous holiday favorite? Your Assistant can find it with just a few small details. Just ask, \u201cHey Google, play that song that goes, \u2018Chestnuts roasting…\u2019\u201d Or too early for Christmas tunes? Just ask, \u201cOk Google, play \u2018Discover Weekly\u2019 from Spotify\u2019\u201d (for some playlists, you might need a subscription).<\/li>\n
  4. Designed for your home:<\/b>\u00a0Google Home Max was designed to be versatile and seamlessly blend in with your home\u2019s decor. You can stand it up vertically or place it horizontally to fit in your space. It\u2019s available in two colors, Chalk and Charcoal, and was made with beautiful yet durable fabric, developed from scratch to allow your music to be heard without distortion.<\/li>\n
  5. Turn it up:\u00a0<\/b>With Max\u2019s integrated far-field microphones and speech recognition technology, it can hear you from across the room, even when your music is blasting.<\/li>\n
  6. Multi-room:\u00a0<\/b>Group all of your Google Home devices through the Google Home app and get your favorite holiday playlist going in every room. You can even wirelessly pair two Maxes together for stereo sound.<\/li>\n
  7. Control your smart home:\u00a0<\/b>Make premium sound the center of your smart home. Google Home Max works with more than 150 home automation brands and more than 1,000 devices\u2014including Nest, Belkin Wemo and Philips Hue. Plus, Google Home Max can complete two tasks at once. If you have a compatible smart plug, try saying, \u201cHey Google, turn on the Christmas tree and play Jingle Bells.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Google Home Max is available in the US online at Best Buy<\/a>, Verizon<\/a>, Walmart<\/a>, and the Google Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n
