The Onkyo USA Store has the G3 Smart Speaker in black and white on sale for $100 [onkyousa.com] shipped.

Most places sell it now for $200, original Onkyo suggested retail was $250.

The Good: Sounds much better and plays music much louder than a Google Home or Amazon Echo. Well built, looks nice. Small size.

The Bad: Supports most but Not all Google Home functions, example: no voice phone calling. Also: No Bass/Treble controls, No Battery (AC only) and has 2.4Ghz & 5Ghz Wifi, but Bluetooth is in only (plays music from your phone) but no line out or Bluetooth out.

Thanks OP! Seems like a big upgrade over the standard Google Home speaker. I like that it will also accept voice commands just like the regular Google Home. I don't use my Google Homes for voice calling ever so that's not a big loss. $100 is a much better price to take a chance on one of these than $200.
