- Nest Mini and Nest Audio smart speakers are not available on the Google Store
- Third-party retailers still list them, but options are limited
- This could be Google’s way of preparing for the arrival of the new Google Home Speaker
The long-awaited Google Home Speaker is getting closer to a full launch – and another strong clue is that the company’s older models are becoming increasingly difficult to buy.
Suddenly, Google’s Nest Mini and Nest Audio speakers disappeared from online retailers, which was first spotted on Google’s US store. Not only does the listing for both models say “out of stock,” but it also says both devices are “unavailable.”
As for Google’s store in Canada, it’s the same case, but customers in the UK and Australia can sign up to receive an email notification if it ever comes back in stock.
Outside of the Google store, it’s even harder to find them in stock. At the moment, availability is scarce, but there are still ways to get your hands on one. In the US, Amazon is your best bet for getting the Nest Mini, while Best Buy has the Nest Audio in its clearance sale for $74.99.
If you’re based in the UK, Amazon is the only retailer to have the Nest Mini in stock for £69.99, but stores such as Argos, Currys and Very no longer list either model. Options are also limited if you’re in Australia, but there are still some on Amazon.
Will the Nest Mini and Audio be back?

It’s not completely surprising that Google has paused sales of its smart speakers as it prepares to launch its next-generation device, but it’s unclear whether the Nest Mini or Nest Audio will go back on sale after the Google Home Speaker launches.
Given that Google has spent quite a bit of time rolling out the Gemini tools to the Nest Mini and Nest Audio, it wouldn’t make sense to completely stop production and sales of these models, and with Google notifying UK customers when they’ll be available again, that gives us more reason to believe they’ll return sooner or later.
The Nest Mini and Nest Audio speakers have been Google’s flagship smart hubs for almost seven years, and now it looks like the company is preparing to adopt the new Google Home speaker as its successor – but it’s been quite a process.
The new Google Home speaker first appeared at last year’s Made by Google event and was officially announced in October 2025 with a launch planned for spring 2026 (or between March and May for those in the southern hemisphere).
Although spring has passed and no such speaker has been released, Best Buy Canada listed the device saying it would be due June 25. Google still hasn’t confirmed it, but its new smart hub is very hot, and it would be great news if it were true.
