We’ve been waiting for Google to announce a new Google Home Speaker since the device was teased at the tech giant’s Made by Google event almost a year ago, and now it looks like it could be arriving \u2014 and within a matter of days.<\/p>\n

In an email sent out yesterday (June 11) to Gemini for Home early access testers, Google thanked participants for their feedback, which it said resulted in over 2,500 bug fixes and a wider launch to 20 countries in 10 different languages. Google has also been consistent with software updates, which also saw the return of the much-loved Continued Conversation feature.<\/p>\n

As noted by 9to5Google, Chief Product Officer for Google Home & Nest, Anish Kattukaran, sent out the email to users stating the following:<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m writing to you from my living room, surrounded by the same speakers, displays, thermostats and cameras in many of your homes. With over 100 of my own smart home devices connected around me and my family, I am deeply aware of the incredible potential and occasional inconveniences of smart home life\u201d.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Since the early access program launched, it\u2019s garnered a staggering 3.5 million sign-ups from users who\u2019ve wanted to get a taste of what the new Google Home Speaker will have to offer, and Kattukaran is still encouraging users to send feedback.<\/p>\n

But he signed off his email with what looks very like confirmation that the new Google Home Speaker will be announced next week.<\/p>\n

At the bottom of the email, Kattukaran says \u201cfor those of you who have been patiently waiting for a certain speaker\u2026 keep a very close eye on your inbox next week,\u201d which I think can only be referring to the launch of a new Google Home Speaker.<\/p>\n

I imagine that, like us, you\u2019ve also been keeping your eyes peeled for signs of the new speaker since the company officially announced it in October 2025.<\/p>\n

At the time, Google teased a “spring 2026” release date, and it could still meet that deadline, technically, as while most people go by the meteorological definition of spring, which is March-May in the northern hemisphere, astronomical spring doesn’t end until June 21.As of now the new Google Home Speaker is prominently displayed at the Google Store, where you can sign up to be notified by email when it goes on sale \u2014 and we’ve had a hint as to when that might be. Best Buy Canada recently slipped up when it listed the device along with a June 25 release date label.Shortly after, Nest Mini and Nest Audio speakers started mysteriously vanishing from the Google Store and third-party retailers, which suggested a new speaker was on the way.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

It\u2019s been six years since Google came out with the Nest Audio and a lot has changed in the realm of the best smart home devices on both the hardware and software fronts, so the bar is set high. But from the feedback from Gemini for Home users and the device features list on the Google Store, there\u2019s a chance that Google could actually hit this one out of the park.<\/p>\n

Why This Matters<\/h2>\n

Companies in adjacent segments often react quickly to similar moves, which is why stories like this tend to matter beyond a single announcement.<\/p>\n

Looking Ahead<\/h2>\n

The full impact will become clearer over time, but the story already highlights how quickly the modern tech landscape can evolve.<\/p>\n

Observers will continue tracking the next steps and how they affect products, users, and the wider market.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
