It’s possible that we’ve already seen this speaker, because something small, round, and speaker-like was spotted in one of the promo clips used at the Made by Google event that launched the Pixel 10 – though Google didn’t actually refer to it at all.

Another discovery from 9to5Google in the same app: there’s reference to a “Google Home Premium” and “Google Home Premium Advanced” plans, which are presumably rebrands of the current Nest Aware and Nest Aware Plus plans.
These subscriptions give you access to recorded video clips in the cloud, taken by your Nest cameras, as well as some smarter alerts (like the ability to distinguish between a dog barking and a person talking in the notifications you get).
As per the information seen by 9to5Google, the lower tier – Google Home Premium – could come as part of certain Google One subscriptions. This is already the case for Nest Aware in the UK, so watch this space for updates.
