    Ok Google is the software from google where you give commands to the hardware. You have to say "ok google" then you make a question or order some actions.
    I don't know the real name of the software, but the commands it starts with "ok google". I saw it working in a friends house. He has one of those speakers with bluetooth that connects to laptop, bulbs, lights etc...

    That works fine, there's a button on the remote (and controller) to switch the microphone on, then you can say your commands.

    @Tiago. That's just like the Amazon Echo I posted the review for. Instead of OK Google you just say Alexa followed by a command. Works really well.

    The Standalone speaker is called the Google Home.

    The software that does it on Android (and other phones I think) is called Google Assistant.

    (I think....)

    It's no where near as good as the Amazon Echo though. It's third party support is really poor compared to the Echo. Echo has the advantage of the retail might of Amazon, but also it's skills (apps) are completely free and it supports the full Internet of Things language and is being directly supported by a lot of connected devices.

    Echos speaker is also better than Google's and the Echo Dot is amazing by how small it is and the speaker still being good.
