Google Home vs Devices with Chromecast

[Flair]

Im just curious if there is a  difference in the Goolge home and mini vs a device that has chromecast built in? I have a Bose 500 speakers and it comes with Google Chromecast which allows me to say " Hey Google" and control everything I need. I would like to know if I am losing any features by not using a Google device?

Hey Flair,

Google Home devices are the Google’s line of smart home speakers while Google Assistant is a voice-controlled personal assistant. If you have a Google Home or smart speaker that has a built-in Google Assistant, you can ask any questions and control your smart home devices. The only difference I can provide is that some features are only specific to Google Home devices. It still depends on the integration of some smart home devices to some smart speakers.
 

Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Alex
