The holidays are coming and there are always must-have tech products hitting the market just in time for the rush. This year I’ll be sharing the Best Buy Top Tech Holiday List. This list will will include all your tech wants and must-haves for everyone in your family. The list comes out Oct 10, 2017 but I’m going to give you a sneak peek at one of the products on the list.
Best Buy sent me the Sony Google Assistant Built-in Wireless Speaker Lf-s5og which is one of the tech products on their Holiday Top Tech List. I do not consider myself techie and I usually need to ask someone to help me set up techie products. I plugged the Sony Speaker in, downloaded the Google Home app as well as the Google Assistant app and I was ready to go.
This is one of the coolest products I have! You can play music, ask questions, and control all your other smart devices with just the sound of your voice. It has 360° sound to hear music no matter where you are in a room, or connect to Chromecast and enjoy the same music throughout your whole house. The touch free controls make it easy to give a command. You can either use your voice or hand gestures to control your Sony speaker.
No worries if you use it in the kitchen while cooking because it’s splash resistant. With the Google Assistant you can set alarms, update your calendar, and manage many everyday tasks.
One of my favorite things is to add items to my shopping list! Anything you would type into Google, you can simply just ask your personal Google Assistant!
Check out this quick video and come back October 10th to see Best Buy’s Holiday Top Tech List that will make your holiday shopping easy. There will be something for everyone!

That sounds like a great speaker. I really love the size of this one. It feels substantial without being huge. Some of the other ones out there feel like they’ll get lost, they’re so small.
Colleen Lanin says
That is FANTASTIC! I love that Sony is throwing their hat into the personal assistant ring. They’re one of my favorite tech brands.
Catherine Sargent says
This looks like a great product and I like that it is wireless. I need to add this to my Christmas list for my son.
Theresa says
It’s amazing how far technology has come. Google Assist sounds like a very handy device to have. I also like that it is splash resistant because I spend the majority of my day in the kitchen.
Dogvills says
I’d love to have one in my office at home. Sometimes when I hit those “blah” moments and stumped on writing a post, I stop and listen to some music. This speaker would be perfect! Thanks for the review.
Pam says
I need Google Assistant in my life. I need reminders and alarms and I forget to set them. I could just tell Google.
Marcie W. says
I could definitely use a wireless speaker like this, especially around the holidays. Between the handy assistant that can help keep track of my gift list, to having an easy way to listen to my favorite seasonal songs, this sounds like a dream come true.

How much cooler is technology going to get? I Google pretty much everything.

I could use a gadget like this, it’s really useful and it’s convenient. It would be nice to check it out and see if it works for me and my husband!
Kristin says
Oh nice! We spend a lot of time outdoors so having portable speakers are a must!
