Smart home devices from Google and Amazon are priced roughly the same. So which is better? Is Amazon only about shopping? Is Google only about searching the web? Let's put the Amazon Echo Dot (3rd Gen) up against Google Home Mini. It's an unbiased test of Alexa vs. Okay, Google. Who has the most accurate responses? Who is the best to work with?

Note: In the video Alexa gives us a super cheap price for the Amazon Echo Dot. Turns out she was giving us the price for the previous generation! Okay, Google on the other hand, knew we would want the latest version and quoted us the correct price. So Google Home Mini won that one. Well spotted by our viewer, cee128d.
