Say hello to Google's next smart speaker, which is expected to be a replacement for the original Google Home.

The report said the speaker was codenamed "Prince" and would be a replacement for the original Google Home.

According to the report, the speaker had a "high excursion speaker with 2-inch driver" which would supposedly be a sound upgrade over the current Google Home.

The new speaker has an all-cloth design, with four lights on the front, which matches the Nest Mini/Google Home Mini and the Google Home Max.

We don't actually know the name of this thing, but it will start with "Google Nest," a smart home brand Google is in the middle of transitioning to.

These smart speakers used to be called "Google Home," and currently in the Google Store you'll find two products with the old branding: the original "Google Home" speaker and the "Google Home Max." For the new Nest stuff, you have the "Nest Mini" (an upgrade to the Google Home Mini), the Nest Hub (formerly the Google Home Hub smart display), and the Nest Hub Max (a bigger Home Hub).

Nothing really matches with the smaller "Nest Mini" speaker, which sounds like a tiny thermostat.

That was the case originally, but the smaller Google Home and Google Home Mini had the feature patched in a few months ago.
