That means you're saving a very generous £200 on one of the best smart speakers available today.

Better still, the gadget is not even a year old – only arriving in the UK on August 30, 2018.

This Amazon Echo-rivalling gadget has its own competitor to Alexa called the Google Assistant.

So what is the Google Home Max?

It's an extremely powerful 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.

The Google Home Max is also a particularly impressive speaker, rivalling powerful options like the Sonos Play:5 or the Apple HomePod.
