With Amazon's latest Echo updates, Google's Nest speakers have some serious catching up to do

When the Nest Audio was released in 2020, I gave it a glowing review. At the time, in the context of other Assistant-equipped smart speakers on the market, I couldn't find much to complain about: it was a better version of the Google Home speaker it replaced, with a modern look and great sound for its size, and it was offered at a very reasonable $99 price point — $30 cheaper than its predecessor was at launch. To this day, it's one of our favorite smart speakers. But at its Devices & Services Event today, Amazon announced new versions of its Echo Dot speakers — and updates to existing devices — that are making me question my whole Google-based smart home setup.
