That means it can answer questions, play music and control your smart home – all through voice control.

Normally the Home Mini costs £49, although Google is currently selling it for £34.

But this deal from eBay is even better value, at just £17.98.

These are manufacturer refurbished products, which mean they come from the official Google refurbishment programme.

It means that the product you receive should be as good as new.

Better yet, this is one of the cheapest ways to put a smart speaker in your home right now.

So what is the Google Home Mini?

It’s a smart speaker powered by Google’s know-it-all Google Assistant.

Google Assistant is a virtual helper that you control using your voice.

She (or he, if you change the voice) can help you with everyday tasks like finding out about the news or weather.

It’ll set reminders and timers, let you check your Google calendar, play music, and even make hands-free calls.

All you need to do is say “OK Google” or “Hey Google” out loud, and then issue a command.

And if you have compatible smart home gadgets (like a Philips Hue Lightbulb or Nest Thermostat) then you’ll be able to control those using the Home Mini too.
