Assistant on Android TV better than Google home if you don't have a music subscription.

by danielcar

On Android TV with assistant you can play any song, there is no youtube limitation like there is on google home, although you do have to contend with advertisements.

I had the opposite experience. I found Google home works better with smart home stuff ( actually Google assistant on shield barely worked for me for something stuff). The biggest issue for me was the Nvidia shield TV remote microphone was very poor and rarely heard me - only if I yell at top of my lungs.

Fyi, I'm about 70% sure you can play any song through Spotify on Google home without a premium subscription. I'm not at home to test it, though.

What I expected on my Mi Box by the end of 2017: Google Assistant, Amazon Prime Video, and Android 7.1.

What I got: Nothing.

Commercials even if you have YouTube Red?
